About the coach

I coach everyone from touring professionals to first-time golfers—but my mission is always the same: to help you get better, faster.

I started playing golf at age 10 and have been obsessed with the process of improvement ever since. As a junior, I represented New South Wales in the Australian Interstate Series and won multiple events along the way. During my Australian PGA Traineeship, I transitioned into the professional ranks, earning a Tour Category and competing in the PGA Tour of Australasia events—until COVID-19 disrupted competitive access.

That moment marked a shift in my focus—from chasing my own results to helping others chase theirs. Golf is a game for life, and whatever your current level, there’s always room to improve.

With experience across elite amateur and professional golf, I bring a well-rounded, performance-based approach to coaching. I’ve worked with emerging juniors, competitive amateurs, and touring pros, with a focus on physical performance, skill development, and long-term growth.

I’m also a co-founder of Stokes Gained Studio—a high-performance golf and fitness facility designed to help players unlock their full potential. From golf technical coaching to gym-based programs, we offer everything you need to elevate your game under one roof.

I hold certifications with TrackMan (Levels 1 & 2) and multiple TPI certifications (Level 1, Junior Level 2, Golf Level 2, Power Level 2), enabling me to build swing and movement strategies that suit your body—not force it into someone else's model. I’m also one of just a few coaches in Australia accredited in the Draw More Circles system, using course performance data to guide smarter, faster improvement without guesswork.

Ultimately, my goal is to help you cut through the noise, train with purpose, and achieve results you didn’t think were possible. It is time for you to realise your potential.

Billy very quickly was able to identify a problem with my back swing and explain clearly and simply what that problem was and how to fix it!

Frequently asked questions

What is an online golf lesson?

An online golf lesson is a way of learning golf skills and techniques from a coach or instructor through the internet, using video analysis, live coaching, or online courses. On Skillest, you can get private instruction with an elite golf coach without even leaving your home. Just record your golf swing and send it to your coach, along with any goals, questions, or other information that will help your coach create the right plan for you.

What are the benefits of an online lesson using Skillest?

Online golf lessons using Skillest offer many benefits, such as convenience, affordability, flexibility, and access to the largest selection of the most talented golf coaches in one place. Through video recordings, side by side comparisons, and conversations you have with your coach, you will receive comprehensive feedback on what you need to improve and how to improve these areas. When you get a lesson on Skillest, you don’t need to schedule a time or drive to your lesson. You can just record your swing and message your coach whenever you have questions.

How do I receive feedback from my coach?

You will receive feedback from your coach through the Skillest app. Your coach will record their own videos with their analysis as well as additional drills to work on and send them back to you inside the lesson. You can watch your coach’s analysis, which may include video, audio, text, or drawings and see the changes and improvements they suggest for your swing. You can also ask your coach follow-up questions you have, and chat with them through the app. You can also review your feedback and track your progress anytime on the app.

What are the different types of lesson plans I can purchase?

Skillest offers a variety of plans and packages available for purchase. You can purchase a single online lesson, lesson packages, monthly subscriptions, or live Zoom lessons. Many coaches also offer video-based courses in addition to one-on-one coaching. Note: Not every coach will offer each type of lesson plan available.

What are Courses?

Whether you're looking to refine your technique, master strategy, boost your fitness, or enhance your mental game, our courses are designed to help you excel in your chosen sport—be it golf, swimming, cricket, basketball, or baseball.
