My experience, backing your game
A fully qualified PGA Professional since 2001, I bring over two decades of experience in both playing and coaching golf at a high level. I’ve competed in tournament golf, with a career highlight being my victory in the 2006 Regional Qualifying for The Open. My coaching journey has taken me to prestigious venues such as The Mere Golf Resort in Cheshire and The Tytherington Club in Macclesfield. More recently, I launched my own state-of-the-art indoor golf facility, offering Trackman-enabled practice and lessons to a thriving base of players. I’m also a certified Mind Factor coach, trained under renowned performance coach Karl Morris. Now based in Hertfordshire, I offer in-person coaching as well as online programmes via the V1 Golf app. When I’m not on the course or in the studio, I’m a passionate fan of both football and golf.
Player testimonials
I went to Darren for a lesson on my driver followed by irons. I had picked up a huge slice and was shooting high 90s at my local course and not hitting irons well. He was calm, composed and clearly had so much knowledge, experience and even technology.
After changing a few things in my swing and grip, I have just broken 80 for the first time beating my best ever score by 7 shots! Thanks so much Darren, you are the man!
