I teach at Timberline Golf Club focusing on scoring rather than mechanics with special emphasis on routine, short game, managing expectations, course management, shot selection and troubleshooting to help the player be their own coach on course I approach coaching differently understanding almost every student doesn’t have time in their daily calendar to practice enough to fundamentally change their swing. My approach looks at the most pressing and easily correctable scoring issues and helps to refine, refocus and improve them. I consider mechanics, set up, shot selection, routine and expectations. My approach is different from most but is successful in the goal of reducing the student’s handicap and scoring more consistently
