Golf Lessons
What is the World Golf Teachers Federation: With 35 member nations that currently make up the World Golf Teachers Federation and 17,000 members world wide, each member has their own legacy, however humble. Our founder
knew that there was a growing need for better teaching and the public deserved it. In creating the USGTF back in 1989 and the WGTF several years
later, he knew that, by establishing an organization that provided equal opportunity and consideration for each person, we would succeed - and together we have become an irresistible force.
As a member of the Canadian and United States golf Teaching Federation
I am privy to the thoughts and teachings of our 17,000 members world wide.
They come to me in quarterly publications called Golf Teaching Pro magazine. They are filled with exciting articles that keep my lessons innovative and fun. I bring a genuine love of people, optimism, determination, and sense of humor to my teaching. Main Street Golf offers the latest in golf teaching technology and so we can offer many different ways to learn or correct the golf swing. It is important to note that it is the individual that determines how best to use the facilities at hand. Through a simple interview we can determine the best way for you to learn. As I enter my 4th year as a golf teacher I look forward to the challenge of helping the low handicap players to become even better. With the Golfotron, video and some modern statistical formulas we can pin point exactly what areas can be improved . In 2004 the USGTF came up with a 10 point responsibility code.
