... about me
Philosophy
Always look to improve yourself
The BALL tells the truth.The simple fact is that the “Ball tells the Truth” and gives me the information to work back from. From the path of the ball flight, the ball’s trajectory, and how spin influences the balls movement.These vital clues in the puzzle help me to deconstruct an individuals swing problem before making changes.
COACHING to the next Level
Since becoming educated and qualified with the Titleist Performance Institute my coaching has been able to go to the next level. I have the tools in place to coach with knowledge and confidence, without having to second guess a physical detail relating to a particular swing problem a client brings.
Anyone who wants to invest in their game to become a better golfer will need to take a holistic approach to change.
I guarantee, if you can make even a small physical change, say – to your swing, perhaps increasing a small range of movement or limited flexibility, you’re going to move off first base and gain long term improvement.
It won’t necessarily be easy – but it WILL be worth the effort.
A coach may give you a quick swing fix, and put a band aid on a problem but it won’t heal the scar, old familiar problems will reoccur. A holistic approach to change and hard work will be rewarded with new and improved skills leading to better Golf.
The T.P.I. model works. it’s proven and I use it as part of my coaching programme. Please don’t hesitate to contact me for further information

Truro College Golf Academy
"Talent is Nothing without the Opportunity"
I’ve always enjoyed coaching and bringing on junior golfers. I am well aware how the behaviour of the golfers I looked up to as a youth shaped my play and my golfing career. I have always felt obliged to help share those values and my experiences and pass them on to the next generation.
In 2008 with that in mind I reached out to Truro College and helped establish their Golf Academy, not only to introduce new golfers to the game but to help coach and support those elite players on their golfing journey.
It has been a privilege to be associated with the many students that have passed through the Academy since its inception. I am extremely proud of how far they’ve come.
