Why Scott
Good coaching starts
with your game.
An individual approach to technique, strategy, and the way you learn.
The approach
More than a better stroke.
Scott brings more than three decades of teaching experience and continues to compete nationally at the highest level. Staying active as both a player and coach keeps his teaching connected to the way the game is played today.
He brings that perspective to your game, starting with what feels reliable, what breaks down, and what you want to improve. Lessons combine modern techniques and strategies with focused practice and feedback you can use in match play.
