What My Clients Think
Why Players Choose Stella
"You have improved my game way beyond my expectation! (The warm up) ... gave us the opportunity to chat which I found very relaxing. A great start to my lesson. Your teaching skill and *eye* for noticing where changes in my game could be made/improved were amazing in such a short time. Thank you so so much."
Renee Murray (June 2021)
"I recently took part in a group coaching session on putting with Stella at Piperdam. She had prepared a great program of fun drills for us to focus on improving our line and weight as well as quiz questions to challenge our knowledge of the rules. Stella spent one to one time with each of us to give tips and advice and ensured we all had fun as well as developing our skills. Our group had golfers of varying experience/handicap but we all took something away from the session. I feel more confident in my putting now and have already seen a difference in my scores. Thank you for a great session Stella"

"Everything you showed me is very logical, and makes good sense..... It is easy to see why you are such a popular figure at PD (Piperdam), your positive, friendly manner, and approach made me feel very comfortable. You emphasised, and encouraged the better points of my basic golf game ... while in simple, easily understood terms sought to address the worst of my many faults. You are a natural teacher.... so thank you again."

"Having taken a block of lessons from Stella I would absolutely recommend her to anyone, whether a beginner or established golfer. Her tuition and feedback was both helpful and very informative, and gave me confidence as a new golfer to believe in myself to enjoy and play better golf."

"Stella is an excellent coach and has taught me how to understand everything I know about golf, from holding a club correctly and comfortably for myself, to learning how to stand and hit a ball correctly."

“I’m a complete novice golfer and booked a block of 5 lessons with Stella. I was really nervous beforehand - I wasn’t sure how well I’d pick up new skills at the age of 46!
Right from the start, Stella put me at ease and I genuinely loved every lesson. I got so much from each lesson and Stella helped ensure that all the things I’d learned (and there was a lot) stayed with me. She was hugely encouraging and positive about my progress, but also massively supportive when things weren’t going well; helping me adapt to remedy these issues. The feedback she provided after each lesson, plus things to work on, were so helpful too.
Stella has given me all the tools I need to give me confidence to get out on the golf course with friends and family who have a more experience than me – and I’m hugely grateful for that. She’s one in a million and I’d recommend coaching by Stella for anyone at any level of golf. I look forward to working with Stella in the future as my game develops.”

“Being new to the game of golf and wishing to share this fun sport with my family and friends, I’m very happy to have met Stella about a year ago.
She is a lovely and genuine person who has a very positive, enthusiastic and supportive approach to golf as well as focussing on the psychological aspect of the game and self-belief.
I’m loving my golf and my achievements to date are a Texas scrabble team win, beat the pro at 1st hole and the ability to play a variety of 9 hole courses.
Many thanks Stella! I will keep referring to your extensive lesson summaries with many handy tools which will allow me to continue to practise, improve and enjoy my golf”

"Stella has been absolutely fantastic to work with. My husband and I took a course of lessons with her and her patience, attention to detail and structured feedback, both in person and in writing is great. Stella is passionate about the sport and really wants to encourage and support you at a pace that suits. I have really enjoyed the experience and will continue to return to Stella whenever I can to continue my golf journey and benefit from her enthusiasm and knowledge. Thanks Stella!"

"May I take this opportunity to say THANK YOU for your superb coaching skills and for your patience in teaching me. I have enjoyed every minute of the lessons and found your teaching skills very positive, informative, and delivered in such a great way that I felt you were talking to me rather than teaching me ( if that makes sense).
I sincerely hope that your future plans work out the way you want them to, I look forward to continuing my golfing journey with you next season"

"A Coaching Experience:
After 60+ years as a keen golfer, I found myself in despair with the decline in the quality of my game. I turned to a friend, Stella McClure, a recently qualified PGA coach, for her advice. Stella carried out a series of mobility checks in a very thorough assessment. Her conclusions tied in with my poor performance and results.
She sensibly focused on only a few key areas for improvement and tailored the 2 sessions I had with her to match my needs. Her tips were very helpful and, as proof, I shot my best competitive round of the year next day!!
I can recommend Stella's approach which has certainly given me renewed confidence in my game."
