Kendall Academy PGA Teaching history: PGA Membership, 2001. Nearly 20 years of teaching experience. During my years as a PGA Teaching Professional, I have taught golfers of all calibers. I've even had many tremendous opportunities to instruct some players on the PGA Tour. I gained tremendous knowledge of the golf swing after spending five years under the tutelage of Rick Smith during my tenure as a Golf Professional at Treetops Resort. Moreover, I had taken many lessons myself from Rick Smith long before I had started working at Treetops. Directed and instructed weekly Treetops Junior Clinics and provided lessons at Desert Mountain in Scottsdale, and assisted Master PGA Teaching Professional, Jim Flick, with Nicklaus/Flick Golf Schools. Teaching philosophy: Regardless of your playing ability, starting off with proper fundamentals is ESSENTIAL to playing good golf. During your lesson, once your fundamentals are established, I then start getting into the actual swinging of the club itself – by observing the shape of your swing (your swing plane) – and also your body motion throughout your swing. There are many ways to swing a golf club – obviously some ways better than others. But with my swing analysis software program, I can show you your own swing tendencies, and how we can begin to fix any part of your swing through the use of various drills. I can even compare your swing with one of your favorite PGA or LPGA Tour players! There is no better way to learn your own golf swing than to actually see yourself in clear, frame-by-frame detail! Career highlights: Three career holes-in-one. Area of expertise: All areas -- but specifically the full swing.
