The average PGA professional teaches approximately 100 lessons per year. During 2011, Kinney, Walker, Morris and Nuber all taught more than 1,600 lessons and Nick Paez taught nearly 2,400. Over their GolfTEC careers, Nuber and Paez have taught over 10,000 lessons and Kinney and Morris have both taught close to 8,000. That’s a lot of improved golfers when you consider GolfTEC’s 95% success rate. Ty Walker was the first employee at GolfTEC and joined co-founders Joe Assell and Mike Clinton in 1996. Ty has taught well over 30,000 lessons in 15 years.
