"Great in describing technical changes!

"Good
In keeping with the philosophy of Bobby Jones, the first person to capture all of golf’s major championships as an amateur, I believe that dedication and proper technique are essential for success in any endeavor. When you start playing competitivley you find that simply participating is not enough; one must strive to master the fundamentals and execute them correctly to fully appreciate and excel at the game of golf & life. Over the years I have dedicated tens of thousands of hours to the practice and implementation of the mechanics in the golf swing. This has granted me unique insights into the mental and technical aspects of playing well. I encourage a mindset of commitment and continuous improvement for myself and my students alike, regardless of one’s skill level.

Golf, for me, is more than a sport - it's my zen. With over 17 years of experience both playing and teaching the game, I have developed a unique, holistic approach to golf instruction. My golfing journey extends beyond personal play, and into the world of coaching. My goal as a coach is to equip you with not just technical skills but a comprehensive understanding of the game that elevates your performance to the next level. Whether you're a beginner needing basic tips or an experienced golfer seeking refinement, I'm here to guide you through your golfing journey. Let's begin!
"Easily explaining the basics that made a difference in the beginning swing to the end swing of that lesson.
Welcome to Golf Lessons by coach Kollar, where passion meets precision. Mile Square Golf Club in Fountain Valley is my home course, where I’ll often be found, sharpening & working on my game. As a trained golf instructor, I specialize in offering a personalized swing and short game lesson in golf. Whether you're a beginner, eager to learn the basics and fundamentals of the game, or intermediate player aiming to refine your overall golfing ability, the lessons I implement are designed to enhance your overall golf game, while most importantly helping you to enjoy the time you spend practicing. As a graduate of Golf Academy of America, Carlsbad, California (unfortunately no longer in business), I studied the golf swing, psychology of golf, and complex teaching methods as well as golf game management. I also learned how to build and assemble golf clubs, as well as expanding my knowledge on the vast and complex rules of golf. During my 2 years at GAA, beyond my studies, I competed at a collegiate level, making the competitive Golf Team each semester I attended. I came to understand that there are no two identical golf swings. My job is to influence you to find the mechanically correct way to improve your swing and develop your short game, to help you enjoy golf more than you ever have!
"That lesson sparked a fresh grip change and clear goals, plus I can feel the swing staying steadier. A few head-still, weight-shift drills will really lock it in, and I’m excited to continue.
If you’re serious about improving your golf game, you’re in the right place. I work with golfers who want real results—lower scores, better consistency, and the confidence to perform on the course.

With over 30 years of playing experience, 15+ years of coaching, a 1.2 handicap, and 400+ lessons given, I bring a high-level, results-driven approach to every session. This isn’t guesswork or generic instruction—every lesson is tailored to your swing, your tendencies, and your goals. My philosophy is simple: identify what’s truly holding you back, make the right adjustments, and help you see improvement quickly. Most golfers don’t need a complete swing overhaul—they need the right guidance and understanding that translates directly to better performance on the course. What You Can Expect Clear, easy-to-understand instruction without overcomplication Immediate feedback you can feel and apply A focus on scoring, not just swing mechanics Simple, effective drills you can take to the course Coaching tailored specifically to your game Areas of Focus Consistent ball striking and contact Short game & putting (where scores drop fastest) Course strategy & smarter decision-making Building a repeatable, reliable swing under pressure Who I Work Best With All golfers who want to have fun and improve who are serious about improving Players looking to break 100, 90, or reach the 80s Individuals who want efficient, results-driven .

"I was only fortunate enough to know and work with David Byrne for a little over a month before he relocated to California, but that short time made a lasting impact on my game. I truly enjoyed his passion for golf and his genuine desire to help players get better. David often went out of his way to coach me between lessons whenever he wasn’t already busy teaching others—something I greatly appreciated. At 67 years old, I’m not looking to completely rebuild my golf swing, and David understood that from day one. His approach focuses on helping you find a swing thought that works for your swing, rather than forcing a onesizefitsall method. He helped me understand my swing plane and path, and how to consistently get into the right position before impact. After that, his favorite encouragement was always: ‘Turn the corner!’ And it worked. David is a talented instructor, an insightful coach, and an allaround good person. And watch out for his son—just a wee lad with a fabulous golf swing already! David’s passion clearly runs in the family.

Great question. When working with kids, the key is to simplify, gamify, and engage—while still building real skills. Here’s how to adapt your golf lessons for younger players (roughly ages 5–12): ⸻ Core Principles for Coaching Kids: 1. Make It Fun First • Use games, stories, or challenges (e.g., “hit the alien cone!” or “get out of the sand trap dungeon”) • Celebrate effort, not just results • Keep energy high and the mood light 2. Keep Instructions Simple • One concept at a time (e.g., “Big Y swing” for backswing shape) • Use clear, relatable analogies (“hold it like ice cream,” “feet like train tracks”) • Avoid overloading with mechanics 3. Short Attention Spans = Short Segments • Break lessons into 5–10 minute stations • Alternate between full swings, putting, chipping, and movement-based games 4. Use the Right Equipment • Shorter, lighter clubs (U.S. Kids Golf, SNAG, or junior sets) • Tees and balls they can hit easily • Big targets for instant success 5. Reinforce Success Visually • Use cones, hoops, pool noodles, and color targets • Scorecards with stickers or fun achievements • Build confidence with visible goals (“Can you hit the 10-point zone?”)
