what part of town?

Ted Fort in Marietta would be my recommendation. He teaches based on The Golfing Machine, but you wouldn't know it from the instruction you get. Ted keeps it simple, does not try to make you swing one way, and uses great visuals/illustrations until you "get" the concepts. I've been with him for @3 years now - He is the only instructor I have stuck with in the past 14 years.

My plan has been altered slightly...I'm headed to the ATL next week to begin work at Reunion Golf Club www.reuniongolfclub.com in Hoschton, GA. I'll be working under the umbrella of the Affiniti Golf Academy and Director of Instruction Tom Ness. I look forward to working with fellow golfwrx members. Shoot me a pm if you have any questions.

I have heard some good things about Reunion, but I haven't played it yet. Good luck!

Ted Fort, Jr. was chosen by his peers to be the 2006 Georgia PGA Teacher of the Year. His home facility is Marietta Golf Center, in Marietta, Georgia. Fort also serves as a Senior Instructor with www.LynnBlakeGolf.com and teaches golf schools all over the country. In 2006 he was chosen to instruct a VIP clinic at the Barclays Weschester Classic, on the PGA Tour. Ted can be reached at [email protected].

My swing coach recently had to move back to the Chicago area and I am in need of a good replacement. I am more of a one plane swinger and would like a teacher who is familar with these movements. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

 

 

I would recommend Scott Hamilton. He is at Cartersville Country Club. I have worked off and on with him for 2.5 years. He works with Jason Bohn on the PGA Tour and Vicki Goetze-Ackerman on the LPGA tour, plus numerous college players and mini-tour players.

 

birdieba, isn't Scott a one plane teacher???

Third recommendation for Ted Fort, especially if you're a candidate for the "one-plane" swing.

 

Funny guy, has a nice "hitters" pattern himself, and you'll get to meet his mentor Lynn Blake [one of Lynn's students, Brian Gay, just notched his first PGA Tour win.]
