PGA teaching professional Matt McConnin coaches golfers of all abilities in both the technical and psychological aspects of the game, drawing expertise from more than 10 years of personal golf instruction. During one-hour and two-hour group lessons, Matt sharpens the swings of 6–10 golfers, calibrating the powerful oscillations for consistency, accuracy, and maximum ball intimidation. Participants in the two-hour lessons will also practice putting skills and learn general golf etiquette, such as yelling “fore” before striking another player with a golf cart. With the aid of high-speed cameras and video analysis, Matt breaks down each player’s swing before emailing them the images to document their strengths and weaknesses. Matt can help golfers of any skill level fine-tune their game with tips to improve mechanics, course management, and how to tell the difference between bermuda grass and the Bermuda Triangle.
