about me

Daren Turner is a class AA level 3 Golf Professional. Having turned pro in 1992 he has worked at some of the most established courses in Hertfordshire, Middlesex and Essex.
Daren is particularly interested in coaching juniors and is currently working with many young Hertfordshire county players.
“ My goal is take the raw talent that I see on a daily basis coming through the Driving Range and get them to the highest possible level, setting and attaining goals, looking at every aspect of their golf swing and game. You need to think like a Pro if you want to play like a Pro and even at a young age this means that you need to think about things like fitness and nutrition, strength training & course management. Then you will find that the sky is the limit - anything is possible !”

Daren has all the latest equipment available; GASP Teaching system, K-Vest, Explanar, Vector Launch Monitor, he is CRB checked and NSPCC certified.

All standards of golfer are catered for, from beginners to scratch players. After an initial consultation the student will hit some shots on video.We will then sit down and review the swing on the Teaching system, work out what points need improving, set the relevant drills and then get to work on the new moves.
I like to keep the lesson fun and informative yet simple to avoid confusion.
Notes are given to the student to take away from the lesson and practice plans set, to help you reach your desired goal as quickly as possible.

Testimonials

I have known Daren for some years now and have always found his coaching impeccable, inventive, and successful.
His enthusiasm is matched by his ability to teach the golf skills that he coaches so well. I have had several tutors over the years and Daren is most definitely in the top echelons.
With my junior organiser’s (golf) hat on, I must stress that Daren has coached several of my team boys and dramatically reduced their handicaps in the space of a summer.
He can often be seen, like the pied piper, with lots of laughing children all having enormous amounts of fun, indeed, the essence of golf as I see it.

Daren’s easygoing but informed approach to teaching really does wonders for your game. I started lessons with Daren over the winter of 2005 and went on to have my most successful year of golf in 2006 with the highlight being the winning of my clubs scratch championship.
I would recommend Daren to anybody who wants to improve their game and have fun
while doing so.
