If you’re serious about improving your golf, there’s a more joined-up way to find out what’s really holding you back — and what to do next.
Personal coaching with Rich Coffin, PGA Professional.
A traditional golf lesson may have fixed today's problem.
Ongoing coaching helps you avoid tomorrow's.
You've had lessons before.
You've watched countless YouTube videos.
You've tried tips from friends.
You've bought training aids.
You've searched for answers after another frustrating round.
For a while, something clicks.
Then the old shots return.
So you start searching again.
Not because you aren't trying.
Because it's hard to see the bigger picture.
I will help you understand what really needs to change — and stay with you long enough to make sure it does.
The RC Golf Coaching System is a simple, ongoing process designed to help you understand your golf, know what to work on, practise with purpose and keep moving forwards — without constantly starting again with just another lesson.
In previous models of golf coaching, lessons, as we used to call them, tended to be isolated events. The RC Golf Coaching System is different — it binds everything together as an ongoing process. Everything we do fits into the bigger picture of your game and what you are trying to achieve.
How the RC Golf Coaching System will help you:
Start with a free in-person golf assessment at Churston Golf Club. We’ll look at where your golf is now, what may be holding you back and what I believe you should work on next.
The Golf Snapshot takes just a few minutes and gives both of us a useful first insight into your golf — what’s working, what’s frustrating you and where the biggest opportunities may be.

Golf isn't difficult because there's a lack of information. If anything, there's too much.
Another video. Another swing thought. Another opinion. Another thing to fix.
What most golfers really need is clarity — an understanding of what matters for their golf, right now.
My role isn't simply to improve your swing. It's to help you understand your golf, build confidence and guide your improvement over time.
And coaching does not always mean standing on the range with me. The right kind of coaching depends on what you need at that moment.
Making a change is only the beginning. What happens afterwards determines whether that change becomes part of your golf.
Understanding your golf and building your plan is only the beginning.
From there, the RC Golf Coaching System keeps working alongside you — keeping your priorities clear, your practice purposeful, your questions answered and your plan moving as your golf develops.
For local golfers, everything can start with a free in-person golf assessment at Churston.
We’ll establish where your golf is now, what’s getting in the way and what I believe you should work on next. If you prefer to start in your own time, you can complete the Golf Snapshot instead.
Most new clients who decide to continue begin through the Kickstart.
It includes a proper conversation about your golf, an in-depth first coaching experience and your first month inside the RC Golf Coaching System. If you’re local, allow around 90 minutes — slightly less if we’ve already completed your free assessment separately.
The Kickstart costs £99 and begins your ongoing monthly coaching — not a one-off package.
For most local clients, coaching then continues at £99 per month, including one in-person coaching session of around 60 minutes and full access to the RC Golf Coaching System.
As your golf and coaching needs develop, the level of support can be reviewed and adjusted with you.
If you’re local, come and see me for a free golf assessment at Churston. We’ll look at where your golf is now, what’s frustrating you and what you actually need.
Then I explain how I believe I can help.
You don’t need to know what coaching you need before you come. That’s part of my job.

Your Coaching Plan, Practice Plans, reviews, progress, priorities and useful resources stay together in one place. You can see what you’re working on now, what has changed and what needs attention next.
The value isn’t simply being able to contact me. It is having a clear, evolving coaching system that remains useful whenever you practise, play or need direction.
I've coached golfers of every age and ability, and I've learned something important.
The golfers who make lasting progress aren’t necessarily those who have the most lessons. They’re the ones who understand what they’re working on — and stay connected long enough for it to become part of their golf.
My job isn’t simply to teach golf. It is to provide the clarity, direction and ongoing coaching that helps you become a better golfer.
Not because you kept starting again with another lesson. Because you had a clear plan, an ongoing process and someone guiding you the whole way.
