About the coach

📈📈 Get Measured Now - Play Your Best Golf 📈📈

Born and raised in Athlone, Ireland. I learned how to play golf at my local club from the age of 6.
A quick learner, I went on to represent Ireland on the International stage between 2009-2013 before turning my attention to the PGA and in particular, golf coaching.

My passion is to make golfers better by finding out what YOUR natural body movements are and applying those movement patterns to your golf swing.

As a Class A PGA member, I moved to the US in 2019 to work under Hall of Fame Instructor, Mike Adams, as his assistant for 3 years.

Under Mike Adams’ guidance and mentorship I became extremely competent in understanding the golf swing, how we are all individual and that no one swing fits everybody.

It’s important to measure each student for their natural biomechanics and work their golf swing based off these results. The first thing I will do with you on your journey to better golf is take specific measurements that outline the pathway and direction we will go with your golf swing.

The knowledge and application of this information has led me to be named on the Golf Digest Best Teachers in State 2022/2023 and 2024/2025 and forge my career as the Director of Instruction at the world class Metedeconk National Golf Club in NJ and also teach at Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, Florida in my off season.

Get in touch today to be measured for your best golf, remember if we don’t measure then we are guessing. We can’t afford to guess when it comes to your golf game.

Cheers ☘️,

Kelan McDonagh

Kelan is great a picking up on the things I couldn't see. Once he explained it it all made sense. Back on the right track. Go get screened and measured by Kelan.

Kelans lessons have transformed my game from a 12 down to a 6.0. I recently had a 74 for my lowest ever differential. We made big changes early, creating my swing to fit my body, and since then hes ke…

I loved how simple Kelan kept things when it came to communication and the actual analysis of my swing. I saw fast results and he was also available when I needed to troubleshoot things. Can't recomme…

Kelan is a great coach. Aligning my swing with the way my body wants to move has yielded immediate benefits and also feels like the road to long-term success.
