John Shelden Golf
About
My lessons are simple focusing on basic fundaments that allow students an easy path to improvement. I use video and also have a launch monitor. I work with all levels of players from beginners to tour players. I coached La Quinta High School for four years and this past spring was an assistant coach for TCU Men's Golf.
