About Cory

As a dedicated performance coach and continous student of the game, my mission is to help golfers unlock their full potential by bridging the gap between biomechanics, athletic movement, and practical on-course execution. My passion for the game was forged early through competitive junior ranks and carried forward into playing collegiate golf at the Division I level.

That high-level competitive background taught me that sustainable improvement comes from understanding how your unique body moves and translating that efficiency into consistent, repeatable golf shots. Whether you are a junior player building a foundational swing, a competitive amateur seeking to lower your handicap, or an experienced golfer looking to break through a plateau, my coaching framework is designed to deliver clear, actionable results. We strip away the complexity and focus on what truly matters: improving impact, optimizing ball flight, and developing a winning mindset on the course.

Certifications & Expertise

  • PGA Associate: Actively progressing through professional pathways to uphold the highest standards of teaching and player development.
  • Titleist Performance Institute (TPI): Comprehensive multi-track certifications including Level 1, Level 2 & 3 Golf, Junior Level 2, Medical Level 2, and Fitness Level 2, specializing in the deep connection between physical health, body mechanics, and swing efficiency.
  • U.S. Kids Golf: Level 2 Certified Coach, providing specialized expertise in junior athlete development, age-appropriate equipment fitting, and making learning fun and engaging for young players.
  • Athletic Training Integration: Utilizing advanced ground-based movement patterns, kettlebell training, and primal locomotion to enhance stability, rotation, and overall athletic output.

Technology & Methodology

Modern coaching requires precise data to eliminate guesswork. My coaching sessions leverage top-tier performance technology to track, analyze, and accelerate your progress:

  • Bushnell Launch Pro: Delivers ultra-accurate ball flight and launch metrics outdoors, ensuring every adjustment is backed by hard data.
  • 4D Motion Golf Elite System: Utilizes high-tech athletic sensor garments to track 3D kinematics, giving us precise feedback on body movement and sequencing throughout the swing.
  • Integrated Remote Tracking: Seamless digital programming and video analysis to keep you accountable and progressing between in-person sessions.

Programs Offered

  • Private Performance Coaching: One-on-one sessions tailored to your specific mechanical and strategic needs.
  • On-Course Playing Lessons: Take your swing from the range to the turf, focusing on course management, specialty shots, and mental discipline under real pressure.
  • Group Clinics: High-energy, collaborative learning environments focusing on specific areas of the game, from putting fundamentals to full-swing mechanics.
  • Junior Development Camps: Comprehensive summer programs designed to cultivate athletic fundamentals, sportsmanship, and a lifelong love for the game.
