About the coach
David Ruddy
Vision - Process - Discipline
As a golf coach with extensive experience competing at every level of the game and thousands of hours of teaching experience, I have the ability to help students overcome any issue they may be facing on the course.
I have enjoyed working with Ireland most elite players and touring professionals.
I believe that every golfer is unique and therefore, I don't teach a specific method, instead I focus on teaching the golfer. My approach is to ensure that everything from a chip shot to a driver shot should always relate back to helping the student achieve their desired impact conditions.
I am constantly seeking new and innovative ways to improve my coaching methods and the drills I use with my students are among the most advanced in the world, designed to accelerate the change as quickly as possible.
My areas of specialty include:
Long Game: I have a deep understanding of the the swing. I have a systematic approach that makes the decision making calculated and precise. I’m always working back to my 3 key areas:
- CENTERED STRIKE
- PREDICTABLE CURVE
- DISTANCE CONTROL
-
Your whole blueprint will be built around having a tight shot dispersion with predictability.
-
-
Short game: My goal is to give you a very high short game IQ which will help you access the lie, choose the correct shot and execute it under pressure. Learning shots is an excellent way to develop your short game.

Very straightforward lesson. Explains everything very well and drills worked and made sense to me. Video feedback on the app is fantastic and will help me practice what was taught in the lesson. Highly recommend David for a lesson.

We should always be working on improving our swing and David gives the right drills and advice to do just that. I feel like I can take the lesson to the course and implement it immediately. Itll take some time to adjust but with the at home drills he has provided, its down to me. Hes a fantastic coach.
