Why golfers choose David
Clear coaching, built around your game.
Every golfer is different, so every lesson is tailored to you. Whether you are completely new to golf, returning after a break, or looking to lower your handicap, David will help you understand your swing and make improvements that feel natural and achievable.
Lessons are friendly, patient and easy to follow. Instead of overcomplicating your technique, David focuses on clear advice and practical changes that you can take straight onto the golf course.
You can work on any part of your game, including driving, iron play, pitching, chipping, putting and course management. Each lesson is shaped around your ability, your goals and the areas where you would most like to improve.
The aim is not simply to hit better shots during the lesson. It is to help you practise with purpose, build confidence and enjoy your golf more.

Instead of changing your swing on feel alone, you can see the result of each shot and understand which adjustments are genuinely helping.

Testimonials
What golfers say about David.
“I always enjoy lessons with Dave. He has a great ability to break down the complex nature of golf into simple-to-understand pieces and will always come up with appropriate drills to reinforce the point he is trying to make.
He also has a great understanding of the psychological side of golf, not just the physical. This has better enabled me not to turn a bad hole into a bad round!”
“I would recommend David to everyone. I have been learning with David for over a year and he is always approachable and friendly. He breaks down complex techniques into small, easy-to-understand steps for any beginner to grasp. Very good coaching and I would recommend him to everyone.”
“I had a brilliant experience with David. He got me down from a 28 handicap to a 14 handicap within eight months. I stopped playing for two years, and when I tried again I had picked up some bad habits. David sorted me out straight away.
Highly recommended coach.”

Insights
Think differently about your game.
Even past greats admit they make mistakes.
The best players are not perfect. Better golf comes from knowing your patterns, making sensible decisions and responding well when a shot does not go to plan.
