After reading an article on how Hank Haney has changed tigers swing so dramatically over the last 3 years it got me thinking about Australias teachers, and which pro's are coached by whom. I know Gary Edwin coached pampling, gow, lonard, gardiner and senior...is he our best golf teacher? if not who is? How do these blokes shape up against the 'worlds best'? like haney, mcgetrick & harmon? PJL

A quick search back to about July will answer all your questions
as a very similar topic was run back then.
|
|
Ian Triggs has had a bit of recent success. He was the long term coach of Peter Senior and now looks after Karrie Webb, Rachel Hetherington, John Senden and a few others. Shame he gives everyone the same swing though.

Maybe you should go and see him Moe - it could get any worse
|
|
i've seen him - i used to work for him. I once asked him for advice and his response was "give up now"
|
|
He knows his stuff then
|
|
I've done a bit of a search on this but haven't found the
thread, unless the thread title is particularly obtuse. Can you
provide a link?
|
|
OK, I'm a dill! It was a "Best Teachers In Perth" thread
that I remembered.
|
|
Now back to the original topic
|
|
Steve Bann... Depends who you listen to, a lot of people will say Leadbetter, Harmon, etc are all hype and no substance. I am not sure that coaching a tour player reflects someones ability to coach a beginner...but I can see how often there is a tie in...and saying you coached the U.S. Open champ or something is a great calling card!
down and out…did ya get that? |
|
Overnight rnd 1 leader on the Euro tour, Brad Kennedy is also coached by this guy.
|
|
Does anyone know any good coaches on the Gold Coast???
|
|
Edwin's mob at the Glades. You could try David Nable who I believe is at Lakelands. He has really helped get Andrew Buckle's game back on track.
|
|
Mark Gibson is a great teacher on the Gold Coast. Based at Royal Pines.
|
|
Ive heard great things about the coaches at the Glades, is there any coach in particular who is the best, or do they all teach the same stuff?
|
|
where is Barden located?
|
|
Try Laurie Montague at The Heritage.(I think) A good teacher and a great motivater
|
|
Where is the Heritage on the gold coast?? Laurie is an old mate and i'm heading up there next week and wouldn't mind catching up. He was at Royal Pines last time i was up there but that was a while back
Formerly known as "Have Clubs Will Travel" |
|
Wayne Thomas and Martin (don't know his last name) are the teaching pros at The Heritage. There's no Laurie that I know of, unless he is very new.
The Heritage is about 35-45 minutes east-north-east of Melbourne at the entrance to the Yarra Valley.
|
|
Sorry guys, I meant to say The Heritage.
|
|
that now called "The Colonial" ya dill. Good coaches at southport too.
|
|
Laurie is at Palm Meadows Driving Range.
|
|
Of course... Jim Barden, my coach! If you want someone in Brisbane go see Jim who is now at the Vic Park Driving Range. He has extensive experience with all levels of players and has spent the last five or so years taking care of the Qld Academy of Sport Golf program.
Jim can help you hit it further
|
|
Same stuff. Gary Edwin, no. 1, though he would be hard to get. The other guys are super too. It would be worthwhile looking at their website.
|
|
Kevin or Donnie.
