Start with the game you bring to the course

Tournament golf asks more of you than a good swing on the range. Contact, distance control, short-game choices and decisions on the course all matter. Bring your goals and any useful notes from recent rounds so we can talk about where you want more clarity.

A lesson can focus on full-swing patterns, wedge play, putting, short game or course strategy. We’ll work toward a clear next step you can take into your own practice.

Use technology with a purpose

TrackMan and SwingCatalyst are available in the North Ridge Learning Center. Technology can help us understand your swing and ball flight. The goal is to turn that information into work you understand and can apply when you play.

Learn from a player and coach

My experience at UNC and on professional tours shapes how I think about preparation, decisions and the process of getting better. Coaching starts with your game and the goals that matter to you.

Questions about competitive coaching

Do I need a particular handicap?

Start with an intro call to discuss your experience and goals. We can talk about whether a private lesson or ongoing coaching is the right next step.

Can a lesson focus on something other than my full swing?

Yes. Putting, wedge play, short game and course strategy can be part of the work. Tell me what you want to address.
