About Grant

Grant is a Class-A PGA member and Trackman Certified Master Instructor. Grant is one of the top playing professionals in the state of Minnesota. He has played in two PGA National Championships, racked up 11 professional victories, set the course record at Cragun’s Legacy Courses in 2021 with a 65 en route to a nine shot victory, and is consistently a top finisher for MN PGA Player of the Year. He played collegiately at the University of St. Thomas where he was a 4-year letterman and made the national All-American team as a freshman.

Grant believes in adapting his teaching to the level and individual needs of each individual and delivering lessons that focus on helping students achieve their own goals. He believes that having fun and playing more golf are the key components to improving your game. His specialties include helping students gain distance off the tee and striking their irons and wedges more solidly, introducing beginners to the game, and guiding youth golfers who aspire to be high-level competitive golfers.

All lessons are tracked on Trackman, with shot data, videos and lesson notes uploaded to my Trackman.com for students to view and track their progress.

Off the course Grant enjoys spending time with his wife, Angela, and their 2 year-old daughter, Milania, and they will soon be completing their foursome with baby girl #2 due in June 2023!
