About the coach
Hi golfers, thanks for stopping by!
I’m a Scottish PGA professional based in Newcastle, Australia, and I specialise in helping golfers of all levels cut through the noise and make real progress with their game.
Over the years, I’ve coached elite juniors, national squads, and everyday players. No matter the level, I’ve found that simplicity and clear communication are the keys to lasting improvement.
During my career I’ve been proud to serve in roles including:
🏴 Scottish Golf Union Junior Development Coach
⛳ NDGA Elite Squad Coach
🎯 Lead Coach at The Golf Coaching Co.
🇦🇺 Golf instructor at Newcastle Golf Club
If you’re new to Skillest, here’s how it works:
You’ll send me two simple swing videos (down-the-line and face-on), along with a quick note about your ball flight and what you’re working on. I’ll respond with a personalised swing analysis, a step-by-step improvement plan, and video demos of drills tailored to your swing.
My coaching is all about skill development. Every suggestion I make is about one thing: helping you strike the ball better and build a consistent, functional ball flight.
I’d love to hear about your game and where you want to go. Let’s get started!

Fantastic lesson from Andrew, who goes above and beyond to provide high quality instruction. He promptly provided a detailed swing analysis and then followed this up with multiple drills to work on. Andrew is very creative with his drills too, makes the process fun. Amazing value for money to get access to first class teaching. Look forward to continued improvements under his coaching.

Highly effective communication style and informative break down of swing mechanics. Andrew provides you the information needed to improve whilst keeping it simple and not overloading you with multiple swing thoughts. Highly recommend!

The absolute best lesson of all time. What a game changer! I was getting beyond frustrated with my driver swing and no matter what else I tried I felt like giving up on it. Andrew quickly identified the issue and provided drills to help immediately. He communicates so quickly and in such a friendly manner it is super impressive. Truly grateful, A+, 5 !!!

Great working with Andrew! He was able to offer drills and guidance for my golf swing. I played today keeping in mind his advice and it really did help! I will be practicing the drills as well. Thank you ! Great experience!
