I've been the college coach reading your emails, the recruiter who placed 165 players, the swing teacher, the high school coach of back-to-back state champions, and the dad of three Division I golfers. For 25 years I've worked only with junior golfers and their families, and I've written four books on how to do it well.
"The book that every parent of an aspiring junior golfer needs to read. The ultimate guide for any family raising a junior golfer."
Ed IbarguenPGA Master Professional · Duke University Golf Club · Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor · on The Lighthouse Golf Parent"Brad was a tremendously successful coach at Duke University and The Ohio State University. In my opinion, he was one of the best coaches and recruiters in the country. He knows what college coaches are looking for when they recruit talent."
Jim BrownOhio State Men's Golf Coach (Retired) · National Coach of the Year · NCAA Championship Coach · GCAA Hall of Fame"This book is invaluable for anyone raising or supporting a junior golfer. You are the single biggest influence on your child's performance, for better or worse, and this book shows you how to make it for the better."
Grant MartinGolfweek Jr. Tour Director · on The Lighthouse Golf Parent"Because my son became an individual state champion and my daughter represented the Great Lakes Region at the National Drive, Chip, and Putt finals at Augusta National, I can affirm Brad's coaching philosophy extends far beyond developing great golfers. It shapes confident, resilient young people."
Kevin MaParent of Stephen Ma, OHSAA Individual State Champion, Washington University in St. Louis"Coach Spar has been a great mentor and has helped me develop as a player and person. There is no one better when it comes to developing players to the Division I level and beyond."
