About the coach
Hello, I’m Travis, Director of Golf at The Club at Balsam Mountain - a Class A PGA of America Master Professional with over 20 years' experience helping golfers enjoy the game and play their best. I’ve had the privilege of working with players of all abilities, from beginners learning the fundamentals to accomplished golfers refining their skills and lowering scores.
My coaching philosophy is simple: meet you where you are and build a clear, achievable path toward your goals. Every golfer is different, and I believe great instruction should be personalized, encouraging, and easy to understand. Whether you are looking to gain confidence, improve consistency, or take your game to the next level, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
I’m passionate about teaching and truly enjoy watching my students grow-both in skill and their love for the game. If you’re ready for clear feedback, thoughtful coaching, and a supportive learning environment, I’d love to work with you.
