Private Lessons & Coaches in Bal Harbour, FL

I coach players of all levels, but I especially love working with beginners and higher handicappers. There’s nothing better than watching a student improve and break their personal best. I enjoy making beginners feel comfortable and confident when they’re at the range or playing a new course for the first time, since it can be intimidating. I’ve been playing golf since age 12, reaching one of the highest levels of amateur golf in Ireland, competing alongside players like Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry, representing my province at the Interprovincial Championships, and winning my state championship. Coaching has become just as big a passion as playing. I specialize in TrackMan analysis, so we can get properly technical, recording and dissecting your swing to understand exactly what’s happening and why. Alongside that, we’ll work through playing lessons focused on course management and short game, chipping and putting, which I believe is the most important part of anyone’s game. I’m a scratch golfer with elite, tour level ball striking ability, matching pro caliber numbers in distance and precision. I bring real, tested competitive experience to every lesson, not just theory. Based in the Miami area and available to coach throughout the region. Ready to take your game to the next level? Let’s get started.

"I’ve only been golfing for about a week, and when I first started I could barely even make contact with the ball. My swing felt super awkward, I was stiff, and honestly golf wasn’t even that fun because I had no idea what I was doing. Simon helped me fix pretty much everything from the ground up. He corrected my stance, showed me how the swing is actually supposed to feel, and gave me simple pointers that were easy to understand and apply. The difference in just one week has been pretty crazy. I’m making consistent contact now, I can hit multiple clubs, my swing feels way more natural, and I don’t feel nearly as stiff or awkward. Most importantly, I’m actually having fun playing now. If you’re new to golf or just want someone who can explain things in a way that actually makes sense, I’d definitely recommend Simon.
