How to become a golf coach?

To become a golf coach, you must master the game as a player yourself, understanding the strategies and skills required to score well. Being a professional golfer is helpful but is not required. Some aspiring golf coaches learn from professional coaches at a golf school. A golf coach should play in tournaments, as a professional or an amateur, to gain valuable experience. When you are ready to teach other golfers, earn certification with the Professional Golf Teachers Association to become a teaching professional and seek gold coach positions at golf courses, schools, and recreation centers.
