Joe has coached thousands of juniors. Helped hundreds play collegiately and over 60 obtain full scholarships.

Internationally recognized as one of the leading voices in junior golf development — now building elite competitors on a tour-level measurement system.

Class A PGA Professional with 22 years of coaching experience. For more than two decades Joe has dedicated his career to helping young golfers improve their skills while developing confidence, character, and a lifelong love for the game.

As former Co-Founder of the International Preparatory Golf Academy (IPGA) in Bangkok, Thailand, Joe helped build one of the world's premier junior academies — working with juniors from around the globe, helping hundreds pursue collegiate golf and preparing many for successful amateur and professional careers.

He has served in education leadership roles with K-Motion, 4D Motion Sports and 3D motion capture technology companies, specializing in translating complex biomechanical data into clear, actionable coaching strategy: rotational movement, sequencing, segment interaction and movement patterns connected directly to ball flight and skill development.

Cut The Fluff

Your Junior Doesn't Need More Golf Tips. They Need a System.

Junior golf has spent a generation selling opinions and range time. Talent is rarely the issue — the system around the player is. We measure the swing in 3D, identify the areas actually costing tournament strokes, and build the shortest path from where they are to where they need to be.

Tips Instead of Diagnosis

Your junior has collected swing thoughts from a dozen coaches, teammates, and YouTube. None of them measured what their body actually does. We diagnose before we prescribe.

Volume Without Direction

Hitting balls until dark builds habits, not scores. Elite juniors need prioritized, scored practice blocks — not comfortable repetition.

Coaching Built on Opinion

Two coaches, two contradictory opinions, both confident. 3D biomechanics removes the debate. Numbers replace feel-based guesswork.

No Peaking Strategy

Qualifying season arrives and they're flat or overworked. Periodization tells us when to load, when to sharpen, and when to compete.

Playing Outside Who They Are

The only way to lower tournament scores is to play within your own identity. We build a player personality profile so juniors understand the type of player they are and can honor that under pressure.

No Competitive Identity

Talent without self-awareness crumbles on the weekend. We map each junior's competitive personality — how they think, decide, and respond — so their game plan fits the person, not just the swing.

We measure first. Then we build the swing around the data — not around a method.

Who It's For

Built for Juniors Already Competing at a High Level

This program is for juniors scoring in the 70s and low 80s who play tournaments regularly and intend to play college golf. If they are used to being the best player in the group and want a measurable next gear, this is coaching that finally matches that standard.

Nationally Ranked Competitors

AJGA, Junior Golf Scoreboard, and state-level players who need strokes-gained clarity, not another lesson package.

College-Bound Recruits

Coaches recruit data. We build the tournament portfolio, the 3D profile, and the scoring trend that makes a yes easy.

Time-Constrained & Tournament-Travel Heavy

School, travel, and tournament golf. Precise practice built around the calendar they actually have beats volume every time.

Juniors Ready to Own Their Identity

Players who want to understand the type of golfer they are — and build a game plan, practice plan, and mental approach that honors that identity in competition.

The Technology

3D Motion Capture — From anywhere in the world

The best players in the world are measured in three dimensions. Until recently that required a lab. Now a single camera produces a full 3D biomechanical model of your junior's swing: pelvis and thorax rotation, side bend, sway, lift, hand path and sequencing — quantified in degrees and inches.

01

Initial 3D Assessment

Full swing, wedges, short game, putting and physical capacity measured with 3D motion capture — pelvis, thorax, hands and sequencing in degrees, not adjectives.

02

Player Personality Profile

We map the type of player your junior is — how they think, decide, and respond under pressure — so every strategy honors who they are as a person. The only way to lower tournament scores is to play within that identity.

03

Live 1:1 Coaching

One live sessions each month with Joe, on site or remote, scheduled around school, travel and tournament weeks.

04

Periodized Training Blueprint

A 12-week block rebuilt every quarter around growth, workload, and the qualifying calendar — with clear intent for every rep.

05

Unlimited Swing Analysis

Upload any swing, any day. Unlimited 3D motion capture reviews with annotated video and feedback between sessions.

06

Monthly Progress Report

Objective proof: 3D metrics, Decade strokes-gained versus their field, scoring trend against baseline, and competitive identity alignment.

Our Methodology

The ACT System: Assess. Coach. Train.

Every engagement runs the same loop. We measure the full swing, short game and putting before any coaching happens. Once we know the numbers we move into Coach — building a plan around the real cause of the leaks — and Train, giving the drills, practice structure and feedback loop that make the change stick under tournament pressure.

A

Assess

Tournament-grade measurement across full swing, wedges, putting, physical capacity, and competitive personality.

C

Coach

Coaching built around your junior's body constraints and their player personality profile — no method, no cookie-cutter positions, just a plan that fits who they are.

T

Train

Periodized practice blocks that peak them for qualifying season, not for the driving range — with drills and mental cues aligned to their identity.

The Scoreboard

Real Players. Real Results.

“My son had been stuck in the high 80s for two years. Thirteen strokes later he's the number one player on his high school team and college coaches are calling. We finally knew what to practice.”

“My daughter used to fall apart in tournaments even though she striped it on the range. Joe built her a routine and a plan, and she dropped twelve shots in a single season.”

Pro Analysis

Watch Joe Analyze 6 of the Best Players on the PGA Tour

Using the same technology your junior will use in their own program. You'll see from these analyses that all swings are different — it's just a matter of finding the right matchups for the player to create efficiency, power and accuracy.

Just like these tour players, your junior should not be coached into a cookie-cutter method. Every junior in our program gets a player personality profile so they understand the type of player they are and can honor that identity when it matters most.
