Student reviews

What students say

From an 11–12 index to a 4–5

“I have been working with David for 4–5 years now and have gone from an 11–12 index down to a 4–5 over that time. His approach to making swing changes has been very refreshing, and he spent a good deal of time talking and watching and understanding what was important to me, as opposed to trying to make my swing a technical cookie cutter. He combines the analytics with a lot of real world playing experience and has helped me with both the physical and mental aspects of playing competitive amateur golf. I have been working with a variety of instructors over the past 20 years, and this has been by far my best experience and most I have gained from a teaching relationship.”

Jeff M., 57

Simple feels I can use on the course

“Working with David completely changed my swing and how I approach the game. Golf is already incredibly complicated, but David simplified the mechanics to fit my unique swing rather than forcing a cookie-cutter method.

Not only does the TrackMan data give us clear data feedback on what’s happening, but then connecting those numbers to simple feels that I can actually use on the course.

Highly recommend David if you’re feeling lost with your swing.”

Alex K., 24

Issues fixed within minutes

“During my lessons with David, whatever issue I was dealing with got addressed within minutes. Rather than trying to reinvent my swing, we identified the triggers and feels that could reinforce those positive changes. As a former athlete, that approach resonated with me far more than being handed some random drill I found on social media. It felt like a much more personalized experience overall.”

High school & college players

Built for competitive juniors

Whether you’re trying to make the high school team, chasing tournament results, or hoping to play in college, I’ll help you build a game that holds up under pressure. I’ve coached high school and college players, and I still compete myself, including at the national level in PGA Professional championships for both Assistant and Class A PGA Professionals.

Tournament preparation

Practice plans, pre-round routines, and the mental side of competing.

Course strategy

Smarter decisions off the tee, into greens, and around the hole that lower your scores.

TrackMan numbers that matter

Clear data on speed, distance, and consistency, so you know where your game stands and what to work on next.

About

Meet your coach, David Mueller

I’m a Class A PGA Professional, and I’ve been teaching golf for 12 years. I enjoy working with golfers of every skill level. I’ve coached men, women, and juniors, from first-time beginners and intermediate players to high school golfers, college golfers, and even professionals.

My lessons focus on time-tested fundamentals and strategy, taught in a relaxed atmosphere. I’m TrackMan certified and use TrackMan in every lesson, so you can see exactly what your club and ball are doing. I’ll give you everything I’ve got, but in golf, what you put in is what you get out.
