"UNCOMPLICATED GOLF blends basic fundamentals with natural learning techniques to develop ball-striking skills.  Our coaching includes insights into the mental side of the game of golf and how the mind affects performance.  To maximize our potential in golf we must learn to control our body, our mind and our emotions in order to keep energy levels high for peak performance. We are not in the business of changing golf swings, we change the results of the swing.  We don’t teach Golf to people - we teach people to play Golf, to shoot lower scores and have more FUN.  Our guarantee to students: Play Better Golf … or Lessons are FREE. ”  -Coach Dennis Murray, PGA

​

"Finding the sweet spot is akin to finding religion or the taste of an aged Cabernet.  I was reminded in that split second of the root attraction of the game of golf.  It's the sweet spot.  That's what keeps us coming back.  There is no sensation in life quite like it.   The sweet spot is an addictive force."  Dr. David L. Cook, PhD, Golf's Sacred Journey 

 

Eye-hand coordination required to play the game of Golf is more easily learned when you realize that fear and self doubt are the problems interfering with learning.  When you get in touch with your body and what you are feeling, natural learning is the result. Excessive thinking interferes with instincts, diminishes coordination and the ability to perform. UNCOMPLICATED GOLF instruction has solutions for all of these problems through natural learning techniques ... making golf easier to learn and the process a lot more fun.  -Coach Dennis Murray, PGA

 

"A good golf swing is summed up in one word: repeatability. If you can repeat it, you can play. If what you are repeating is good enough, you can be great. It's that simple.  Find what you do well and perfect it."  Tom Lehman, British Open Champion, Ryder Cup Captain

 

"Dennis Murray possesses a very special talent for playing and teaching the game of golf."

- Jim Flick, Coach of Jack Nicklaus, Tom Lehman, Top 50 Teachers - 20th Century

 

Golf can be an easy game to learn for beginners and improvements can be made easier for all golfers when the coaching is uncomplicated and practical. Worrying about results causes muscle tension and undermines the learning process. UNCOMPLICATED GOLF Instruction creates an environment for students to learn and improve rapidly through Specific Practice Routines, making the skill development process, practicing and playing the game of Golf a lot more FUN. - Coach Dennis Murray, PGA

​

"Practice is about mechanics.  Playing is about feel, rhythm and the target. The game of golf is not about what your body is doing.  It's about what your club head is doing as it delivers its message to the ball.   If we make a commitment to utilize gravity and centrifugal force in a pendulum-like swing, then we must figure out a way to let the swinging elements do their job." -Jim Flick, Top 50 Teachers - 20th Century

 

Muscle tightness resulting from tension, stress and anxiety is the #1 problem for ALL golfers.  Redirecting thoughts has a calming effect when moving from negative to positive possibilities.  Eliminating negative "self-talk," to get comfortable and relaxed is the starting point for learning and improving. You learn to practice with a purpose and develop basic fundamental skills, the foundation to every good golf game. Specific practice routines provide instant feedback, so you learn to trust your instincts and play better golf.   -Coach Dennis Murray, PGA

 

"If people held a fork and knife like they grip a golf club ... most would starve to death."  -Sam Snead

 

"Golf is a game played on the six-inch course between the ears."  -Bobby Jones 

 

The inner game of golf is the game in the mind. Golfers must learn to overcome anxiety, and better control their nerves, rather than playing in fear from shot to shot, and losing the battle against muscle tension and tightness. Improving the mental approach is the first step, making it easier to improve the physical aspects required for playing better golf … and playing more consistently at peak performance levels. -DM

​

"I've learned to trust the subconscious. My instincts have never lied to me." -Tiger Woods

 

Golfers improve if given correct information and applying it properly. Every golfer is different just like every person is different.  No method works for everyone.  UNCOMPLICATED GOLF Instruction respects every individual’s personal tendencies and coaches them accordingly, in the development of their own technique.  -DM

​

"The basis for my progress in golf was my genuine conviction that all that's really required to play good golf is to execute properly a small number of true fundamental movements." -Ben Hogan

​

Our coaching helps you understand your personal technique and provides shortcuts to making your game more consistent without having to change everything ... and teaches you how to manage your game to lower scores. -DM
