I tried to emulate his play within my own game and had some success winning some tournaments, 4 different PGA awards, and qualified for one PGA tour sanctioned event in 2008. I then Started the PGA of America club pro Journey in 2010, won the Vince smith award for low stroke average in the southwest Florida Chapter of the PGA, as well as 5 different tournament victory’s that year.

"I've loved my time at Golftec! All of their instructors are so friendly and knowledgeable. You have to put in the work to progress, but this is the part I enjoy. Golftec isn't a quick fix for a bad swing, they focus on the fundamentals of building a good golf swing from the ground up!"
