Welcome To K P McCarthy PGA Professional Golfer & Teacher

free golf lessonsK P McCarthy is a PGA Professional is a new golf teaching professional at Mansion Ridge Golf Club, Monroe, Orange County NY which is part of American Golf. K P McCarthy is a certified golf Instructor and offers golf lesson packages at all levels, form one-on-on off golf lessons to complete professional golf instruction and coaching for individuals.

We offer a wide variety of golf packages including:

  • Individual private or group golf instruction.
  • Golf Schools for junior golfers over the summer golf season.
  • Men's golf clinics.
  • Women's golf clinics.
  • Junior golf clinics.
  • Walk in golf instruction.
  • Family golf day clinics.

All golf clinics cover the basic fundamentals of golf, starting with a grip, posture, and then the golf swing motion. My personal approach for teaching is that we start with putting then chipping, pitching, bunkers play and finally we end with the full golf swing. The short game in golf accounts for 63 percent of the golf game but the least practice, which is why it is good to start with the short game and work back.

Golf Lessons can involve video taping your golf swing and posture, but all lessons begin with fundamentals of golf and start with the correct grip, then move on to the posture, the motion of the swing the plane, impact position and the finish.
