ABOUT PETER

Keen to increase my golf knowledge, I completed the three Golfsmith Clubmaker Training Courses in my first year as a Pro to become a GCA Master Craftsman, and then went on to do my EGTF Masters Course. I started to build a client base from the ex-pats in Mallorca from personal recommendations. In my first three years I logged over 1000 coaching hours from self generated clients without a driving range or golf course to be based at. I attended numerous CPD training days which I found to be excellent and very informative.

In 2009 I went to work with Stewart Craig in my home town Falkirk when the crisis hit Mallorca with a view to moving back home and working full time at Forthview Golf Range where I had done my EGTF courses. Before I could sell up here in Mallorca though, Golf Santa Ponsa got in touch and asked me to come and work with them as Professional at the private Santa Ponsa II and III where a lot of my clients were shareholders. I didn’t need to be asked twice!! I started on 31 March 2010 and have never been busier or happier.

With a golf course to work from and constant exposure to a membership, my lesson diary gets busier and busier. I continue to invest in my professional development and joined the Spanish PGA in 2010. In Nov. ´12 I became a Certified Master Mind Factor Coach and started my Aimpoint Cerftification training which was completed in Feb ´13. I quickly moved up the AimPoint ladder to become a Level III Senior Instructor and work with some of the world´s best players.

I turned 50 in January 2016 and decided it was time to start a new challenge and realise my dream of playing an event on the Senior European Tour (The Legends Tour). Although I haven´t managed that yet I have won the Balearic Senior Professional Championship (6 times) and continue to try and qualify for The Senior Open every year.
