2 Golf coaches & instructors for lessons in Thomasville, NC

Golf has been a part of my life for more than 3 decades. As an avid junior golfer, I won a club championship, made all conference my sophomore - senior year in high school. I was a part of 2 regional championship teams as well as an 11th place and 7th place finish in high school state championships. From a young age it’s been my passion. Now that I’m in corporate America being able to use my talents to help win numerous charity benefits and raise money for many great causes has been more than fulfilling. I’ve seen the game evolve from wooden drivers and shot shaping course management to now teeing it high and letting it fly. One of the best benefits about golf is not only can you enjoy the game your entire life but you can find satisfaction in the game no matter your skill level. So if you're just a beginner looking to dip your toes in the water, or if you’ve been playing golf for a long time and feel like you’ve plateaued and you’ll never get better, or maybe you're just tired of letting your buddies get in your wallet. Whatever the skill level, whatever the reason, I want to help you achieve the satisfaction and enjoyment that golf has to offer.

"Very good with my nephews starting from the ground up

I’ve spent over a decade in golf, both as a player and a coach, and I’m passionate about helping others reach their full potential in the game. For 8 years, I competed as a touring professional, gaining firsthand experience with the physical, technical, and mental demands of high-level golf. After my playing career, I spent 2 years in professional club fitting, where I learned how the right equipment can make a huge impact on performance. That knowledge still plays a big role in how I coach today. Now, as the Assistant Golf Coach at Catawba College, I get to combine my tour-tested experience, equipment expertise, and love for teaching to help players develop complete games. My coaching philosophy is about more than just swing mechanics — I focus on building confident, disciplined athletes who can succeed on and off the course.

"I found the lesson pretty useful, especially with some effective swing thoughts and drills I can take away. Though, I think I’ll need to practice those a bit more to really see progress. Jake's approach is quite straightforward and approachable, which I appreciated. Still, I’d say it’s worth trying if you're looking for practical tips to improve your game.
