About Ben

Are you a passionate golfer looking to set a personal best this year; but a lack of distance, slice, or triple digit scorecard keeps you from accomplishing your goals?

Ben is a PGA Professional Golf Coach who has taught more than 6,000 lessons, has a handicap of +2, has worked in equipment R&D, and has been playing for more than 25 years. He has fit PGA Tour players for equipment, is an expert in the use of every major launch monitor, and coaches with video in every session.

Instruction will be tailored to you and your specific game. You’ll learn how and why you are having the struggles you’re having, how to make the change, and how to practice to make it all stick.

Testimonial:

"...I had a love hate relationship with golf for many years. I was struggling with my game and I realized no matter how many videos I watched, or gadgets I bought, I needed professional help. Thank you Ben Nelson for changing my game..."

Tom S.

Testimonial:

"I am a high handicap golfer...I saw Ben for a fitting and I feel it is probably more of a challenge as high handicappers are anything but consistent. He was incredibly patient and put together a combination that really made a difference."

Dave E.

Testimonial:

"Great facility! Ben is great! Very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I am looking forward to the next session. Hoping this will get my iron game back on track."

Kristopher W.

Testimonial:

"Great review of the swing. Great change to ball flight right off the bat."

Dylan P.

Testimonial:

Fantastic lesson! Ben is the best at simplifying the swing and distilling down what I need to work on into simple, manageable chunks. Thanks Ben!
