Blake Sharamitaro, PGA
Director of Golf/Teaching Professional
Blake’s Training Philosophy
I have instructed golfers of all ages with various ability levels since 2008. My clients include beginner golfers, top junior golfers, NCAA-level athletes, accomplished amateurs, and professional players. My teaching philosophy revolves around each individual golfer’s body type and how we can improve that particular person’s impact position. My biggest strength as an instructor is my ability to teach players the cause and effect aspects of their game. I want all of my players to know exactly why their ball goes where it does, and the process they can follow to alleviate their issues. Lessons can cover all aspects of the game, including putting, short game, full swing, mental game, and course management. Whether your goals are to have fun with the game or to become a tournament player, I can tailor a lesson program to fit your needs.

JR Remspecher, PGA, MBA
Teaching Professional
JR’s Training Philosophy
Everyone wants to play their best golf, no matter if you are an accomplished tournament player, a weekend warrior, or someone who is just beginning to experience the wonders and challenges of the game. Instruction is an essential aspect of developing as a golfer and enjoying what I consider America’s true pastime (when was the last time you played baseball?). My job as a PGA Teaching professional is to help my students reach their goals. Goals can sometimes be simple and short-term, while others like to aspire further into the future, requiring a more detailed plan. Regardless of which of these categories your golf goals fall into, I can help you to improve and enjoy golf even more.
Since becoming a member of the PGA in 2009, I have developed a teaching style that focuses on students understanding the feel of proper golf ball impact. The feel is memorable and concrete, even though it only lasts a millisecond. Some players may feel this only once in a round of golf, while others may string together a streak of flush shots throughout their round. My job as an instructor is to understand how to align our processes with our patterns. Ownership and knowledge of our swing are accomplished through instruction in two realms:
- Pre-Swing
- What we do before the shot, i.e.:
- Posture
- Grip
- Alignment
- What we do before the shot, i.e.:
- In-swing
- What we feel in the swing to improve impact and the end result, i.e.:
- Balance and dynamic motion
- Club Face Direction
- Club Path Direction
- What we feel in the swing to improve impact and the end result, i.e.:
Every student will review video analysis of their swing to assist in the learning process. This video will also be accompanied with Lesson Notes that detail the skills we are working on in the Pre-Swing and In-swing processes. The Lesson Notes are key to help the student truly engage in their own learning process when practicing and playing between lessons.
No matter the age or skill level I have found that all golfers are capable of working on at least 1 Pre-Swing skill and 1 In-Swing skill. If we trust this process our results will improve!
- Establish GOALS
- Engage in INSTRUCTION
- Define and Trust the PROCESS
- Total Acceptance of RESULTS
Any student committed to these easy steps will improve and enjoy the game MORE!
I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals!

Todd Abolt, PGA
Teaching Professional
Todd’s Training Philosophy
I enjoy teaching all skill levels and ages, from juniors and beginners to accomplished golfers. I also welcome senior golfers wanting to improve their skills. I believe in the PGA of America’s Teaching and Coaching Fundamentals. These include grip and setup, proper stance and posture, with emphasis on clubface angle and swing path. Applying these fundamentals to each golfer’s natural ability and individual swing will allow for improvement and enjoyment of the game.
