Oscar Sachs Golf Coaching is a golf coaching business based at 58 Whitford Park Road in Whitford, Auckland, with online lessons also available. Lessons are given at Whitford Park Golf Club or at The Green Pinnacle Indoor Golf. The coach's main focus is long-term player development and swing changes, for both junior golfers and everyday players. He describes his goal as helping players move to a better range of scores, rather than only seeking consistency. Enquiries and bookings are made by email.
The coach played junior golf for the Auckland team from 2007 to 2010, then played on the mini-tours in America for four years. He then coached at Porter Valley Country Club in Los Angeles for five years, and helped run its junior academy. Customers say he changed their swing to a smoother, more relaxed one, and that he gives them confidence on the course. One golfer says their handicap has come down to 6, and another says he has coached a son since the age of nine. Our pick in Whitford for a coach who builds a plan around what you want from your game.
