About the coach
Unlock Your Best Golf with John Routledge
I help golfers improve by training the skills that actually control ball flight, not by chasing swing positions that don’t hold up on the course.
My coaching focuses on developing awareness of:
- strike quality
- low point control
- start direction and curvature
- distance control and performance under pressure
Rather than forcing one “correct” technique, sessions are built around understanding what the ball is doing and why. From there, any swing changes — if they’re needed — are targeted, relevant, and far easier to own.
Lessons are collaborative, relaxed, and centred on exploration rather than instruction. The goal is not just to hit better shots during a session, but to help you practise with purpose and become less reliant on constant technical fixes.
I use a full-swing launch monitor to provide clear, objective feedback where it adds value, but the priority is always learning to interpret ball flight and transfer skills from the range to the course.
Whether you’re a beginner building foundations or an experienced golfer looking for more consistency under pressure, my aim is to help you understand your game better — and play better golf as a result.

Johns teaching on chipping and the technique he showed was incredibly helpful. Long irons his suggestions really taught me what I need to concentrate on which showed immediate improvement. Thanks John.
