OKC Golf Lab

Birthdays are always a time when I find myself taking stock of where I am and looking back. Something about the passing of another year that makes it feel like a good place for reflection.

It’s been two years since I embarked on this journey into full-time golf instruction. It was never something I set out to do but it’s where the steps led me. My wife and I were talking about our journeys separately and together, and one thing I’m most proud of is our willingness to listen to the quiet voice of the Lord for the next step to take. If you’re faithful over the small things, he will bless them. My life is a living testimony to that! Every good thing in my life is a gift from my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Thank you all for coming along on this journey! It’s crazy to look at how far this page has come from making it on my lunch break one day at a job where I was feeling hopeless and stuck! Thank you to Chase Cooper for giving me a chance when he could have found someone more qualified.

And lastly a truly heartfelt thank you to every single person that has come in for a lesson! It’s such a privilege to provide for my family via the game that has been my passion my whole life. No coach has all of the answers, but I promise I will always give you my best and I deeply care about giving my players the best chance to improve!

Happy Fourth of July! This country might not be perfect but there’s nowhere else I’d rather live!

Cancellation at 2 pm today. Text me at (580) 678-5131 if you want to come.

Most golfers don’t have a swing problem… they have a sequence problem. Shout out to @andreaskaligolf for this drill. The pressure should move: ➡️ into the trail leg early in the backswing ➡️ then shift to the lead leg before the downswing starts Most players do it way too late and that’s what messes up contact and sends the club off plane. This step drill forces the correct sequence. You’ll feel it instantly. Try it slow. Then blend it into your swing. Better sequence → better contact → better ball flight.

If your goal is to lower your scores, this is the simplest place to start. For most amateur golfers, at least half of your practice time should be putting and chipping. Here’s why:
Putting and shots inside 100 yards account for roughly 60–65% of all shots in a round for the average golfer. Yet most players spend the majority of their practice time hitting full swings on the range. From a scoring perspective, that’s inefficient. Tour-level data consistently shows that strokes gained around the green and on the putting surface separate good scores from average ones. Improving your short game saves strokes much faster than chasing marginal gains in ball speed or swing aesthetics. This isn’t about ignoring your full swing.
It’s about prioritizing the shots you hit most often. If you want a free short game practice routine, comment “PLAN” below!
