Bio/About

My desire is to bring world-class instruction to the golfers of Ireland and further afield.
In continuous pursuit of researching and developing my own ideas on helping golfers perform better I have been fortunate to spend time around many of the best minds in golf coaching from Michael Bannon, to Dr Mark Bull, PhD. and Dr Greg Rose, TPI Founder. As a golf instructor I work with and help develop the skills of all levels of golfer, from beginners to European Touring Professionals
