About
My name is Rupe Taylor & I am the PGA Teaching Professional at VB National Golf Club. I’ve been teaching students of all levels for 15 years. I’d love to help you with your game!
I make myself available from 8 am - 6 pm Monday - Friday & use Saturday AM as needed to fulfill whatever requests I can’t accommodate during the week.
I do also have an indoor studio in Red Mill that I teach out of as well, based on what weather & daylight allows. I use TrackMan & video analysis to help you understand your ball flight.
You can find more information about me on my website below:

You’re welcome to reach me via text at 434-953-5729.
Hope to hear from you soon!
