Erik Bredesen

About

Hi! I have been teaching golf for the last 4 years at all skill levels. I can help with full swing mechanics, short game and bunker technique, putting, course management, and playing lessons (course management/strategy). I have studied the golf swing for years and the best ways to lower handicaps of any range. Everyone's swing is different, the key is finding what "swing feels" work for each individual student to guide them to their BEST golf swing! I also have a long history of playing competitive golf. Some of my playing accomplishments include a top 3,000 world golf ranking, Edinburgh USA course record (62), Twin Cities Championship winner, Top-5 finishes at the Northwest Amateur Championship, Fort Dodge Amateur, MN State Mid-Amateur & MN Pub Links Amateur to name a few.

    Erik is a patient instructor and does a really good job of breaking down the movements. It’s clear he’s very knowledgable about golf and swing mechanics, he is good at using different drills, techniques, analogies etc. until it finally clicks or makes sense. He also has been very relaxed in a scheduling and location sense which has been helpful with my busy schedule. Overall, definitely would recommend!

    Ive taken lessons from other pros with mixed results, but Erik was the only one to break down my swing mechanics in terms I could understand and find swing feels for me that finally clicked! Hitting every club in my bag so much farther and straighter than I ever thought I could honestly. Cant wait to get his help with my short game!

    Erik is the man! He is so knowledgeable, skilled, patient, kind, and funny! He really puts things in perspective and adjust accordingly. After one session I could tell a difference. I highly recommend him to anyone who is beginner or intermediate! Thank you so much Erik can’t wait for the next session!

    Not only does Erik have an incredible wealth of knowledge about the game of golf, but he also has the ability to communicate that knowledge in a way that is understandable and effective.
    What I appreciate most about Erik is his ability to tailor his coaching style to my specific needs and learning style. He is patient, encouraging, and always makes me feel comfortable on the course. Thanks to his guidance, I have made tremendous progress in my game and have developed a newfound love for golf.
