Best 7 coaches for Golf lessons near Douglass Hills, KY

Although Chesley (Ches) was born in Dallas, his devotion to golf was sparked during his childhood while living in Austin. His first job working the driving range at Morris Williams Municipal Golf Course offered the additional bonus of spending time with his grandfather, who also worked there under local legend, Head Pro, and Coach George Hannon. Ches honed his golf skills first on the Westwood High School golf team in Austin, then later competed for the Lake Highlands High School golf team in Dallas. After completing his degree in TV/Radio (minor in Economics) at Southern Methodist University, the lure of Austin called again, and he began a 17-year career at Barton Creek Resort & Club. Beginning at Barton Creek Lakeside in September 1999, Ches worked his way up from Guest Services to Class A PGA Head Golf Professional over all four Barton Creek golf operations (PGA Certification, PGA GPTP/PGM, Port Saint Lucie, FL, 2000 – 2006). In 2004 he was certified through the Chuck Cook Golf Academy in both the teacher training and club fitting programs. Over the years his natural talents in building relationships and high-end customer service were successfully applied to supporting 1200 active golf members. He also developed, marketed, and executed a rigorous 35+ member tournaments a year. Over the years Ches still found time to compete in over 50 STPGA golf tournaments, achieving multiple team and pro/am wins. He also served as Volunteer Chair for the Canadian Tour events held in Austin from 2004-2006.

"I had a lesson with Ethan that went quite well. I appreciated how he broke down specific aspects of my swing without overloading me, though I still have some work to do on aligning my stance better. Still, Ethan’s approach is pretty focused and straightforward, and I feel like I gained some useful insights I can build on.

Richard Parrott is a Class A Member of the PGA of America with over 25 years of experience teaching the game of golf to people of all ages and abilities. Richard began his PGA career in Florida, and then spent time working at high-end country clubs in Virginia and New York. Richard’s approach to teaching golf can be summed up in one word…Personal. Richard’s golf philosophy is based on his belief that the “one size fits all” method to teaching the golf swing marginalizes the individual. Richard sees everyone as unique, and that everyone deserves critical evaluation based on their particular physical parameters, level of dexterity and mobility, and even thought process. If you are looking to educate yourself on the fundamentals of golf so that you will be better equipped to grow your own game, book now!

"How’s this sound? Richard’s years of experience teaching golf was apparent to me after just a few minutes of meeting him. And after spending more time with him, I realized that he’s struck a delicate balance between teaching the “feel” or instinctual side of golf and his deep understanding of the technical aspects of the swing. I always feel more confident in my game and better equipped mentally after each session with him.
