Keaton Swan
Keaton earned his degree in Golf Complex Operations and Management in 2018 from the Golf Academy of America in Chandler, AZ. Short time after, he became the Director of Instruction at TopGolf where he ran junior camps, clinics, and taught lessons for 3 years before moving back to his hometown of Elk Grove.
He believes that communication is the key to successful lessons and improvement. Practice is always more beneficial and productive if there is a purpose and goal involved. Improvement is measured through setting goals, which the student, along with Keaton’s guidance and support, will strive to achieve. Anyone can be a better golfer if they have the proper road map to follow. Keaton knows that there are many different swing types and that there is no one swing model for all golfers. Keaton loves teaching the game of golf, regardless of age or skill level, because he thinks its never too early or late to pick up the great game, we all know and love.
