A Word From Connor
What does it mean to you to be named one of Golf Digests Best Young Teachers in America?
"It’s a very nice honor to receive, Gods been very good to me. It motivates me to work hard to help my players get better and to keep learning every single day. It’s very humbling to be named alongside some of the best teachers in our game. I grew up reading golf digest religiously and when I saw my name in it, I couldn’t help but think of my grandfather who loved the game of golf and read digest every month."
What does you think had contributed most to your growth as a golf instructor?
"Without question the people who I’ve had the opportunity to surround myself with. I’ve been fortunate to learn from some incredible mentors, have people who want to support me. I also am very appreciative for the times when I have failed, haven’t been good enough, and/or struggled to be where I wanted to be. Those times and moments were opportunities to learn and grow, and they helped me tremendously. Every day is an opportunity to learn and get better. There’s no finish line."
How does being apart of the BBCC community influence your approach to teaching?
“Yeah, wow. The people here really love the game of golf. I’m fortunate to travel and spend time at clubs across the country but when I’m here at Blue Bell you just realize that the people here LOVE the game of golf and the people they do it with. It’s special. We have members who will get out there in rain, wind, SNOW, it doesn’t matter. I also have really loved the relationships I’ve been fortunate to build with families. There’s a very special and unique value to family here at Blue Bell. I’ve really enjoyed spending time with juniors and helping them navigate how to get where they want to be. Hopefully, helping them understand how to define what they want, set some goals, build a plan, create some structure and have fun in the process.”
At Blue Bell Country Club, we are committed to providing our members with opportunities to learn, grow and enjoy the game at every stage of their golf journey. Having an instructor like Connor on our team reflects that commitment, and we look forward to seeing the continued impact of his work.
Congratulations, Connor, on this well-deserved recognition! We are proud to have you as part of the Blue Bell Country Club team.
