BUCK MAYERS, EMERITUS PROFESSIONAL
Escondido Golf & Lake Club ~ Horseshoe Bay, TX
For over 20 years now and having taught thousands of students, my experiences have had successes and failures. From the beginning, my hunger for objective knowledge and information on learning golf has been an ongoing journey. My teaching career has been totally dedicated to you.. the student, and to learn as much as possible about "your way", not "my way". It took many years to discover that mental variables, student's bodies/capabilities and proportions, playing style and equipment differences all had unique characteristics. I have concluded, the best teaching formula must have a personalized long term strategy. All golfers must be willing to take responsibility for their own improvement and trust their plan.
It is critical to understand that golf is a lifetime journey, not a sprint. There are neither quick fixes nor cookie cutter methods for long term success. My objective is to simplify your understanding of what will help you become the best golfer you can be. I am devoted to helping my students get better and have more fun. Your attitude, commitment, and belief will ultimately determine how much you will improve. To be productive, you must first love the game and have fun trying to get better. If it's "work", you'll eventually abandon your goals due to frustration and become content with mediocrity. In order to be successful, you must have a purpose - a PLAN!
Whether you're a tour player or beginner, young or old, tall or short, strong or weak, fat or thin, flexible or stiff, male or female - there is a program designed specifically for you!
