Joe has been around golf his entire life, and knew from an early age that he would one day grow up to be a PGA Professional. His love of competition, fascination with the golf swing and desire to help others play better have continually fueled his career. Joe’s early childhood home was only blocks from the Smithtown Landing Country Club, where he met his mentor, Michael Hebron—a Master PGA Professional in the metropolitan section for over 40 years and one of America’s top golf instructors. Michael gave Joe his first job at the country club at only ten years old. Joe spent much of his early years with Michael and the rest of his staff, working on his game and studying the business of golf. By the time he was 16, Joe was helping Michael run his golf schools. Michael has always been available for support, and Joe credits Michael for helping launch his career. Joe played as a junior and continued to hone his game during his teenage years and was a standout player in high school. He also played collegiate golf at Dowling College, where he was a multiple winner. Joe competed in several Long Island and Met section amateur tournaments and was rated in the Top Ten of all Division II golfers in the northeast. Later, Joe had the opportunity of learning and studying under Eden Foster, a Top 100 golf instructor, of The Maidstone Club in East Hampton, NY. During this time, Joe realized that his true passion was instruction. Over time he developed his signature ability to help players craft individual swings that match their style and goals. “This is not a one-size fits all approach,” he says. Clients praise Joe’s ability to analyze their game and distill the complexities of golf into clear, simple language and provide lasting, actionable advice. In this way, Joe has earned his reputation as a dynamic, results-driven coach who helps players of all levels, from beginners to touring pros, “get where they want to go.” Joe creates a comprehensive, customized game plan for every client that helps bring them to the top of their game with speed and ease. A born fanatic, when Joe’s not working he can be found on the golf course, or at home writing or studying the business of golf. During the summer months, Joe can be found at Fresh Meadow Country Club located just outside Manhattan in Great Neck, NY and in the winters, Joe teaches both at Fresh Meadow and at the John Webster Golf Academy at The Breakers in Palm Beach. Other clubs where Joe has taught include Newport Country Club (Rhode Island) and Calusa Pines Golf Club (Florida). Joe credits the many great teachers that inspired him along the way, such as: Mike Adams, Andrew Rice, John Webster, Keith Dicciani, Matt Dobyns and Chad Penman.

PART II: GREENSIDE BUNKER

The setup In any shot is 🔑, the greenside bunker shot is no different !

Save this video for your next practice. But this is a continuation from yesterdays bunker video

09/07/2026

Greenside Bunker Shot

1. Open the face first
Lay the face open at address to create the loft you need. If you want the face open, you can establish that at address rather than relying on excessive wrist/forearm manipulation during the swing.

2. Get pressure forward
Favor the lead leg and maintain it. This helps move the low point forward and prevents the golfer from hanging back trying to “help” the ball into the air. I would suggest maintaining flex in the lead knee through the shot.

3. No shaft lean at setup
By having the butt of club or grip pointing at your belly button at setup, exposed more bounce at setup and allows for the breaking as seen in the video

4. Control the entry point
The goal isn’t simply “hit two inches behind it.” You need a predictable spot where the club enters the sand.

5. Major of your low point and entry point is established at setup. (Sternum centered, wide stance, handle center). But setting the club first and allowing for clubhead speed and a decelerate of the handle, creates proper loft and sand interaction

The combination becomes:

Open face + pressure forward + handle centered + controlled entry + aggressive downward strike.

The open face supplies the loft while the cenetered handle and downward strike help the club pe*****te the sand instead of bouncing prematurely into the ball.

This concept allows you to create a shot that comes out high and soft without trying to scoop it high.

“Loft it at address. Get forward. Accelerate the clubhead and slow down the handle.

Golf is a balance game.

It’s incredible to me how many players are trying to “fix” individual positions in their swing when many of those pieces would fall into place naturally with better balance.

Balance influences how you move, how you sequence, how you apply pressure into the ground, and ultimately how you deliver the club.

And no golfer is exempt from this. Regardless of age, ability, or skill level, your ability to control your body matters.

Gain control of your balance, and you’ll gain more control of your golf swing.

Before you start chasing positions, make sure you can control the foundation they’re built on.

We spend so much time working on swing mechanics but do you spend enough time getting your mind in the right place to actually deliver the strike?

Over the years, especially with my driver, I found myself creating way too much noise in my brain over the golf ball.

Where’s the club?
What are my hands doing?
What position am I trying to hit?

None of it was helping me perform.

This year, I’ve worked hard on simplifying what happens before I pull the trigger.

Create the picture.
Connect a feel to that picture.
Commit to the shot.
Then react.

The goal is to do the mechanical work in practice so that when it’s time to play, I’m not trying to manufacture a golf swing I’m trying to produce a shot.

And one more piece I think gets overlooked:

Your post-shot routine is just as important as your pre-shot routine.

How do you respond to a poor shot? What information do you take from it? And, most importantly, how quickly can you clear it and prepare for the next one?

Mechanics matter.

But learning how to quiet the noise, create a clear picture, commit to a feel, and move on from the previous shot is a skill too.

Train the swing. Train the mind. Then learn to trust both.

I owe Terry Rowles so much for regaining my love for playing golf again. From hiding from hitting driver to posting drivers on Instagram. What a difference 3 years has made! Thank you, Terry !

HOW DO YOU ACTUALLY MAKE A SWING CHANGE? ⛳️

Understanding how to change a movement pattern in your golf swing requires a specific system.

A swing change isn’t simply understanding what you need to do. Your brain may understand the change immediately but getting your body to repeatedly produce that new movement is a completely different challenge.

The process:

1. UNDERSTAND IT
Know exactly what you’re trying to change and, more importantly, why you’re changing it.

2. CREATE THE FEEL
Find a drill, exaggeration or external feedback that allows you to experience the new movement.

3. SLOW IT DOWN
Speed hides mistakes. Start with rehearsals, partial swings and slower speeds where you can actually control the pattern.

4. ADD FEEDBACK
Video, TrackMan, Sportsbox, mirrors, constraints whatever allows you to know whether you actually did what you intended to do.

5. BUILD REPETITIONS
One good swing doesn’t mean the pattern has changed. The new movement needs enough quality repetitions to become more accessible and repeatable.

6. ADD SPEED + VARIABLE PRACTICE
Gradually move from controlled practice into different clubs, targets, trajectories and eventually full speed.

7. TEST IT ON THE GOLF COURSE
The ultimate goal isn’t to make a beautiful swing on the range. It’s to make the movement available when you’re playing golf.

Understand → Feel → Rehearse → Feedback → Repeat → Add Speed → Transfer

Swing changes take time.

Stop searching for the next swing thought.

Create a process that allows the new movement to become a pattern.

Great afternoon at Southampton GC

What a place, wow !

09/02/2026

I’ve been struggling with my own putting recently.

Thanks to Arccos Golf , I’ve been able to dig into the data and narrow down the distance that needs the most attention.

For me, poor mechanics started leading to poor focus on the greens and once that happens, it becomes pretty difficult to putt with any real confidence.

So lately, I’ve been sneaking in some reps after work with a very specific purpose: clean up the mechanics, create better feedback, and rebuild confidence.

Have a look and more importantly, a listen to how I set up this practice station and the feedback I’m looking for on every putt.

If your putting has been struggling, this setup may be able to help you too.

Practice with a purpose. Create feedback. Build confidence.

“We’re talking about practice…” — Allen Iverson 🏀⛳️

But seriously… we ARE talking about practice.

You’ve carved out 3 hours to work on your golf game.

Now what?

What’s the goal?
What’s the objective?
What’s the purpose?

Just hitting golf balls for three hours isn’t necessarily practice. Practice needs direction.

In this video, I’m working specifically on alignment & trajectory understanding where I’m aimed, controlling the flight of the golf ball, and creating a practice environment where every shot has a purpose.

Don’t measure your practice by how long you’re there.

Measure it by what you accomplished while you were there.

Have a plan. Have an intention. Own your practice. ⛳️ ✏️ 📄

Creating the proper sequence of the body, arms, hands & club and connecting that sequence with efficient footwork is a necessary skill for becoming a better ball striker.

The golf swing isn’t just about getting the club into certain positions. It’s about understanding how everything works together and in what order.

Feet → Body → Arms → Hands → Club

When those pieces are organized and connected, you create better contact, more speed, improved balance and, most importantly, a golf swing that is far more repeatable.

Don’t just work on positions. Learn how to sequence the motion.
