Coaching Philosophy
Regular coaching is a vital part of a golfer’s improvement and development. Golf coaching sessions should take place in the appropriate environment; on-course sessions are a vital and often missed part of a player’s development and success. When changes are required, these need to be measured and only done to benefit the golfer and their control of the golf ball flight. This will not only aid their learning and understanding but, most importantly, their enjoyment of the game! As a coach, I acknowledge that each individual I meet will have different requirements. This drives me to continually learn and improve so I can provide the best possible experience for each golfer I am lucky enough to work with.
Why Book With Me?
Whether it’s a one-off session or a long-term programme, we will set clear and agreed goals to guide your improvement.
Lessons are delivered with clear and understandable communication, both during the session and afterwards, so you always know what to focus on.
Progression is measured, and ongoing communication between sessions is encouraged, giving you the support you need to enjoy and improve your golf.
FAQs
What can a golfer expect from a lesson with you?
They can expect that I will listen carefully to their questions and requirements, and structure the lesson around the player and what we agree to be the most important area to focus on. I will provide a clear plan for the lesson and individual training sessions, along with notes and videos for reference, and offer continued feedback after the lesson.
What aspect of the game do you specialise in coaching?
I specialise in coaching the beginners and the improvers.
What technology do you use in your lessons and how do you believe it helps?
The technologies I use are: video (OnForm app) – which provides good visuals, shows improvement, and enables communication with the coach in between lessons. Flightscope – helps analyse impact and understand ball flight. Hackmotion – provides game-changing feedback for wrist conditions and clubface control.
What would you say to a beginner who might be nervous about the idea of taking up golf as a sport?
I would explain the positives: being outdoors in nature, the opportunity to make new friends, and the health benefits. I would guide them towards appropriate coaching sessions where we introduce golf in a friendly, non-judgmental manner, understanding their feelings.
What three words would best describe you as a coach?
Reliable, personable, caring.
