Simon MacWhirter
Professional Golf Coach
Simon is a Certified Golf Coach, PGA of Australia Professional, Accredited Blind and Disabled Coach and SA Girls State Coach.
After competing in Europe, Africa, America and Australia Simon coached at David Leadbetter Academies in Europe and America.
He then ran his own academy in England before helping golfers in SA. Simon helps absolute beginners, experienced and elite golfers to improve using simple pointers and practice games.
...We found Simon a true professional with a great personality and tremendous patience. His ability is outstanding, he can quickly identify your weaknesses, talk you through them and demonstrate strokes with your own clubs. Which then allows me to improve my shots...

In about five lessons with Simon I was able to embed some significant changes in my swing that produced a much more consistent ball strike and added some very helpful metres to my driver. By the end of a three-month period working with Simon I managed to get my handicap down to scratch which allowed me to play competitive pennant golf. Simon has the runs on the board in helping my game and a coaching style that is assertive but relaxed which gives me the confidence to trust what he says. I have no hesitation in recommending Simon as a person and an exceptional golf coach.

My Husband and I have played social golf for over 10 years but lacked a bit of confidence to venture further afield to other larger, more prestigious clubs or courses. We met Simon when we moved to Adelaide from Sydney and have been having regular couple’s lessons with Simon MacWhirter for nearly 12mths. His lessons we have found have helped enormously not just with focussing on specific aspects of each of our games but also help with tips and drills on the course and at the driving range.

Simon MacWhirter is an excellent educator of people with learning disabilities. He combines his extensive golf skills with patience, a focus on progression and achievement and a sense of fun. I have been thoroughly impressed with his preparation, organisation and target based learning. He has developed real skills and a love of golf in my students. I would unreservedly recommend Simon as a golf coach.
Paul Walker
Simon possesses a great demeanour, is patient and communicates very well. He has an outstanding knowledge of the game and the techniques he uses during lessons are easy to understand. Simon is encouraging, approachable and is genuinely interested in your progress. I have learned from Simon to 'keep it simple' and to practice, practice, practice! Fantastic advice......I won eight trophies in 2016... a real testament to Simon's abilities and how he relates to all levels of golfers.
