Danny Harcourt is the Director of Instruction at Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club in Bedminster, NJ, where he is entering his sixth season. He was named to Golf Digest’s Best Teachers in New Jersey for 2026–2027.

Danny has had the privilege of working alongside World Golf Hall of Fame instructor Mike Adams and Golf Digest Top 50 Instructor Terry Rowles. Their mentorship shapes his teaching philosophy: rather than forcing students into a one-size-fits-all model, Danny measures each player’s body and movement patterns to build a blueprint for the swing that fits them. The result is dynamic, individualized instruction grounded in biomechanics — not guesswork.

A 2019 graduate of Gettysburg College with a B.S. in Computer Science, Danny was a two-time PING All-American and won a school- and conference-record 13 collegiate events, including the Centennial Conference Championship, before finishing 15th at the NCAA Championships.

As a player, Danny continues to compete at the highest levels of the PGA:

• 2025 New Jersey PGA Player of the Year
• 2025 NJPGA Match Play Champion
• 2025 NJPGA Fall Finale Champion
• 2024 NJPGA Fall Finale & Assistant Players Champion
• Qualified for the 2026 PGA Professional Championship at Bandon Dunes
• Qualified for the 2025 PGA Professional Championship and 2024 Assistant PGA Professional Championship

Danny believes the best instructors are also students of the game — and that competing at a high level keeps his teaching sharp, current, and relevant for players at every skill level.
