Guys understanding of the fundamentals of the golf swing is exceptional and having spent over 20 years teaching golf, his style of teaching is certainly not a one size fits all approach. He understands that every golf student has different requirements and abilities and this is what drives his teaching methods. By also establishing well designed clinics that make the game of golf fun and accessible, Guy has created a loyal student base which includes golfers of all ages and abilities. Some of Guys junior golfers have gone on to receive golf scholarships at universities around the USA.
Players of all levels benefit from his straightforward approach and unique understanding of the game of golf, its principles, its equipment and techniques. Guy is a Callaway Certified Master Fitter and his understanding of equipment technology is second to none.
Guy and his wife Nicky moved from England to AZ in 2006. outside of golf, his passions are travel, cars (including remote controlled cars) and soccer.
