I’m Goms . My specialty is turning “Wait, what do I do?” into “Oh wow, that actually went forward.” I teach brand new golfers because that’s where the best stories happen through the chaos of their first swings. The kids, the adults, and the brave souls who show up holding the club upside down. I live for the moment your swing finally behaves and we both look at each other like, “Did you see that?” If you’re curious about golf and ready to learn, mess up, and accidentally hit a perfect shot, I’m your coach. Worst case, we laugh. Best case, you crush it. Win-Win situation. Let’s gogoGolf !

"Hey, so far, I’d say Daniel's lesson was quite good. I appreciated that he recognized my errors and corrected them without fuss. Though I’d like more correction and rally practice next time, I still felt it was pretty helpful overall. Honestly, it’s rare to find someone who can really spot those mistakes effectively. Definitely worth trying if you're looking for tailored guidance and clear feedback.
