About this pro
What separates Triangle Golf Academy from the rest in the area is PGA Master Professional, André Panet-Raymond being on staff as our Director of Instruction. Of the 28,000 PGA Professionals to choose for instruction, less than 200 are PGA Master Professionals, focused on teaching. Only 4 recognized in all of North Carolina.
Secondly, André's background and extensive training in Sport Psychology- golf specific, provides the perfect, unique niche for golf development....Everyone knows the importance of the mental game for playing golf, but not everyone knows the importance of the psychology of learning. Our unique approach to learning has you understand the mechanical needs and the process to learn those mechanics faster than the normal approach to learning golf (hitting balls on a range).
Panet-Raymond has been recognized America's Top 50 Junior Instructor for both adults and juniors, so if you're looking for junior instruction, there is no better place to go. Our junior academy runs three semesters annually. two 16 week semesters in Fall and Spring and a 12 week semester in the winter. Panet-Raymond has logged in over 40,000 hours of golf instruction. Experience is perhaps the best credential. No longer is teaching a guessing game when the client comes to learn. The instruction is pointed, the game plan is assembled, and the way to train is taught for the ultimate learning experience. See you soon. Thank you!

Coach Andre is an extraordinary instructor! He works with each Student on all aspects of their game: course strategy, mental training, rules & etiquette — but most importantly, his ability to develop an individual’s swing is exemplary! He is truly a Master Instructor with sincere dedication to his students!!

Andre is a very knowledgeable golf teacher in both areas of physics and psychology of the game. He has the unique ability to take your swing and make adjustments to allow you to hit the ball better NOW! He understands the physics of the golf swing to a level that allows him to tweak your swing instead of complicated swing change like so many teachers want their students to do which can take years to change your muscle memory. He fixed my swing with just small adjustments that were easy to adapt to my swing. Then it was just a matter of putting in the work and practice to see major changes in my game and my scoring and my enjoyment of playing golf again. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to take their game to the next level whatever that is for you.

Andre is very patient and kind with the children he works with. He pushes my daughter to be her best while still making it seem like fun and games. We love what he does and have recommended him to many of our friends.
