Why I built Golf Smart Academy

Most golfers practice the same flaw over and over because no one told them what was actually causing it. That bothered me.

I learned the swing under Dr. Greg Rose at Clubgolf, the first U.S. golf-performance center, before he co-founded TPI. We worked with Advanced Movement Mechanics and 3D motion capture before any of it was mainstream. I've worked with PGA Tour winners Charles Howell III and Stan Utley. At 5'10" and 155 pounds, I've hit a 405-yard drive in a regulation event. I know how the swing actually produces distance, contact, and direction.

Golf Smart Academy exists because that depth of diagnosis was only available to people who could afford private instruction. I wanted every golfer to have access. That's why we start with a diagnosis, not a tip.
