Coaching Philosophy

"Coaching is very different than teaching," says Brett Packee, PGA.

As a teacher we give a typical 30 or 60 minute lesson on the full swing, short game, and putting using the latest video technologies. As a coach we do so much more. We set up practice schedules, help with tournament planning, work extensively on the golf course, set up short game and putting stations, work on club yardages, adjust and fit golf equipment, put together a fitness program and much more.

CORE COACHING: One thing I love to do in all the group training sessions is to create a pressure situation. We compete all the time on the course, short game, and putting challenges.  This helps students succeed when they get into tournament play.  During a spring training program, the challenge was pitching between targets set at 3 yard increments. (Think railroad tracks)  Who ever took the most shots to complete the exercise had to carry all the bags from range to the golf shop (about 300 yards). No one wanted to loose-including me. Tons of pressure and great practice along with learning how to hit great shots under this pressure.
