Testimonials

As of 2026, I've been working with Gary for about 10 years. Gary is a massively important member of my team helping me with all aspects of my game. During our partnership he has helped me to qualify for 4 USGA national championships (three Mid-Amateurs and one Senior Open) and consistently perform well in national, regional and state events. I'm currently one of the top ranked senior amateurs in the world and give Gary a ton of credit for helping me to get there. Under his guidance, I'm confident I'll keep achieving my goals.While Gary is an expert in the playing aspects of the game, he also understands the competitive landscape and is a great partner to bounce ideas off of about anything related to competitive golf. He will also honestly tell you if something is out of his wheelhouse and with his network of contacts can guide you to the right people.I would recommend Gary to any competitive golfer regardless of whether they're looking to win a club championship or excel on the PGA Tour.
