About the coach

Mike “Monte Mangiaracina
Golf Professional 39 years

I have been able to shoot in the 60’s, into my 61st birthday since I’m 16 because I have stuck to physics and applied how the body works in all athletic actions to my golf swing.

Golf is in my blood. My father was a tour professional who learned directly from the legendary “Wild Bill” Mehlhorn—one of the most prolific ball strikers and a 19-time PGA Tour winner, renowned for his accuracy and innovative approach to the game. I was fortunate enough to learn golf from both my dad and Bill himself, absorbing wisdom passed down from a true pioneer of the sport.

Growing up with this unique foundation, I competed heavily in numerous events, honing my skills not just on the range, but in the heat of competition. I know how to hit a golf ball, but more importantly, I know how to hit one under pressure—when it matters most because of how stress free my golf swing is. No P1, P5, P40 or any nonsense that’ll make your head spin!

My teaching philosophy is rooted in the science of the swing and the realities of athletic movement. I blend the timeless principles I inherited from my mentors with modern understanding of biomechanics and physics, helping golfers of all ages and abilities develop a powerful, repeatable, and efficient swing.

Whether you’re looking to break through a scoring barrier, build confidence under pressure, or simply enjoy the game more, I’m here to help you achieve your goals. Let’s work together to unlock your best golf—built on knowledge, tradition, and proven results.

Thank you,
Mike “Monte” Mangiaracina
