Golf Instruction

Joshua E. Coad
PGA Head Golf Professional

My philosophy for teaching is building relationship with each student that produces energy and enthusiasm about the game of golf. I like to do this with proper motivation, confidence building, and by teaching the integrity of the game. I approach each student differently based on what they would like to accomplish and what their physical attributes allow. My approach to the golf swing is to achieve a proper address position and complete the golf swing keeping the club head moving in a cirlce, around the body, with the clubface square to the circle. I believe that a series of checkpoints on the takeaway and on the forward swing help a student understand and accomplish this task. I also feel that creating muscle and body awareness with appropriate exercise and flexibility training can help a student learn the proper positions of the golf swing, and reproduce them. Finally, I believe that setting up a series of short term goals with the end in mind helps each student feel the confidence of achievement while working towards their ultimate goal.
