My primary goal is to bring FUN into the game of golf.” Some of my programs include: Classes for at risk Juniors, Coaching high school teams, special short game clinics, developing men’s and women’s and couples specific clinics, classes on how to play the game stressing the mental and physical requirements of the game, most recently working with the Salute Military Golf Association a nonprofit dedicated to working with military with special needs.
