Bloomfield Golf Instruction
About Me
After competing full time as professional golfer for over 10 years, in over 25 countries, I turned my professional experience into a passion for teaching others how to master the game of golf.
I teach at the Rick Smith Performance Golf Center located in Doral, FL located at Trump National Doral and I teach all aspects of the game including, but not limited to: Short Game, Long Game, Course Management, Mental Game and AimPoint Green Reading.
I am a Rick Smith Master Elite Instructor; previously a Master Instructor and the Director for the JMGS Summer Junior Golf Camps at the Jim McLean Doral Golf School for over 5 years; AimPoint® Level II Certified and U.S. Kids Certified
I believe that learning to play great golf is much more than just knowing the mechanics of a great golf swing. As a former Touring Professional I try to integrate thought processes which improve practice session quality, course management and mental game in each lesson which concludes with a plan of action.
My teaching philosophy is to train players to become better athletes so they can truly feel and control the club face, club path, body movements and connection to the ball in order to gain greater overall consistency.
My Caribbean background, worldly experience and experience in having played with over 135 previous and current PGA Tour, European Tour and Korn Ferry Tour players adds flavor to my golf instruction.
