Teaching Philosophy
Good coaching should leave you clearer about your game, not more confused. I start with what happens to your ball, what you're trying to achieve and what you can realistically practise. From there, we choose the priority most worth working on. I'll explain why it matters, demonstrate the change and give you a practical way to rehearse it. I don't want you chasing somebody else's swing or changing everything at once. We build an approach around you, then use your follow-up reviews to see what is improving and what needs adjusting. Online coaching works best as a rhythm: get clear feedback, practise, then review. My monthly plans provide that structure, with defined swing reviews and short follow-up questions about the work we've agreed. Reviews and messages are answered within two working days, Monday–Friday, excluding UK public holidays. This is scheduled coaching support, not a live or unlimited messaging service.
About the coach
If you're practising but still unsure what to work on, I can help you find a clearer way forward.
I'm Phil Leathem, a PGA Professional with over 20 years of coaching experience, based at Laganview Golf Centre in Northern Ireland. I work with golfers who want to understand their swing, practise with purpose and build a game they can trust.
Send me your swing from face-on and down the line, along with your usual miss, your goals and how much time you have to practise. I'll explain the main priority in plain language, show you how to work on it and give you a focused practice plan. The aim is to make your next session useful—not fill your head with ten new swing thoughts.
You may also know me from Golf Bros. Returning to playing after a long break has reminded me how different knowing what to do can feel from actually doing it. That perspective sits alongside the experience I bring as a coach.
Choose a Single Swing Review for a clear starting point, or a monthly coaching plan for structured feedback as you practise. Each option sets out exactly what's included and when you'll hear back from me.
