About Mike

Mike delights in making you smile during and after your lesson, whether your goal is to get the ball airborne for the first time, to survive a charity scramble, or win the State Open.  He will take the time to understand what you want out of golf and then guide you toward reaching those goals.  Mike’s instructions are simple, result in improvement and are always driven by your preferences.  He likes to say, “I take FUN very seriously!”  While Mike enjoys teaching all ages & skills golfers, he really enjoys helping junior golfers.Prior to coming to Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club, Mike worked for the PGA of America in the Player Development Department.  Mike was elected to PGA Membership in 1997 and in 2015 became the 14th Professional to be Certified in Player Development.  Mike is a protégé of Manuel de la Torre, PGA and Fred Shoemaker of the Extraordinary Golf School.
