He has been victorious on many occasions in local amateur and professional events and his name can be found on many of the honours boards at The Lambourne Club.

Larry has hosted many overseas coaching trips to destinations including Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Spain and Portugal. He uses his excellent organisational skills and his experience of many exceptional courses and hotels from previous trips to ensure that all of his trips are a success.

Larry’s passion is coaching golf and he is permanently trying to improve himself as a coach. He is very interested in the mechanics of the golf swing and frequently participates in CPD courses run by the PGA to increase his knowledge and subsequently his performance as a mentor to his pupils. 

He is a Frankly Golf accredited putting coach and specialises in helping his pupils with their short games. He believes that improving the short-game is the quickest way to reduce your scores. Consequently much of the coaching focus on our trips is on the short-game which our pupils really enjoy and are quickly able to see the benefits when playing on the course. 

Larry has also passed the PGA’s advanced rules of golf exam with a distinction.
