Meet Shawn, Founder & Lead Golf Coach
Shawn McGrath has been golfing for 33 years and is currently a prospective member with the PGA in the Professional Golf Management program as a single-digit handicap player. He has enjoyed years of coaching friends and family on the golf swing, but more importantly on how to think about golf, how to self-evaluate, and how to focus on meaningful practice. He is currently a lead golf coach with The First Tee in Utah, a national junior golf program.
Shawn started the Tee Minus program in order to connect with junior and beginner/amateur players on the importance of correct philosophy and how to approach the entire game of golf. He is passionate about those moments when light bulbs go off for players. As part of a major space, aviation and defense industry household, he chose a launch countdown and go/no-go framework as the basis of program progression; believing that goal oriented approaches often work best in a complex game such as golf.
Shawn is a U.S. Army combat veteran and former pilot-in-command of the AH-64 Apache helicopter; he was a Chief Warrant Officer and served for 12 years. He is also a midair collision survivor. Currently, Shawn is an archaeologist in the American west and is finishing his degree in Ogden, Utah.
