    Patrick is the perfect instructor for any beginner or experienced golfer! As a beginner golfer, Patrick was able to improve my swing within the first lesson. He taught me techniques that were extremely value to improving my swing that no other golf instructor or player had taught me. He’s a fantastic instructor who can break down the game to the basics for anyone to understand. Looking forward to continuing my lessons with him and enjoying the game! Highly recommended!

    As a beginner golfer, one of my main challenges was finding the right instructor for me so I am so glad I found Patrick! I definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a patient and knowledgable instructor, especially as he also prioritizes his students learning to enjoy golf as well. I am looking forward to more of these lessons, because I can see improvements in my swing already and see how fun golf can be!

    Pat was a great teacher, personable and funny. Kept it simple and easy to understand. He had me just make a few small changes and I saw instant results. Made great progress in just one lesson. I Would definitely recommend him.

    Pat was great! Made me feel real comfortable from the get go. He showed me just some small changes in my grip and swing that made a big difference. Made great progress in just one lesson, will definitely taking another one from him again.

    I am so glad we found Patrick. He is the perfect golf instructor for us newbies. He is patient and knowledgeable. He really makes it fun and I love that we get better after every lesson. He is able to translate the nuances of the swing, the game and the biomechanics in a way that is easy to understand and more importantly, to do.

    Frequently asked questions

    I ask questions about experience and goals/desires. I always focus on what the student is really looking to achieve so I can adapt to them. I am skilled in communication to help students improve and have fun with the game. 

    My education has come from years of teaching private lessons and kids camps at Nibley Park and Mountain Dell golf course. I also have training from the PGA of America.

    I also studied kinesiology; this is crucial for teaching proper form and sequencing for the golf swing.  

    My standard pricing is 85.00 per lesson (includes range balls). 

    My teaching career started at Nibley Park, SLC, Utah. (1999) My passion is helping people and understanding different ways people learn. I also studied kinesiology to understand biomechanics, this has helped me adapt to different students and their abilities. I am driven by seeing my students improve and enjoy golf. 

    Everything from the First Tee (inner city youth) to people with disabilities. My specialty is private and group lessons. I have taught everything from beginners to seniors. 

    I love all the fitness and teaching seminars from the pga of america and the titelist performance institute.
