Beth Winkler Kaufman - CGE
“The Boss”, Owner, “Miss Beth”

As a member of the National Golf Foundations Association of Golf Educators, Beth has enjoyed teaching the mental side of golf to her students. Along with receiving the MVP award from University of South Florida, she created the "USF Scholarship Foundation Tournament" to benefit women in golf. She received The Title IX Conference USA Award; was instrumental in creating The Foundation Fighting Blindness tournament in the Tampa Area; has won many Championships and was the winner of the Betty Kirby Putting Award.

Beth Kaufman had an outstanding career in Amateur golf in the Washington DC and South Florida areas. Upon retirement from competition she designed and built a beautiful nine hole par 3 golf course/practice facility. She developed this wonderful Golf Center primarily for beginners, physically challenged, kids and seniors. “Ms Beth’s” style of teaching, which emphasizes having fun has turned many people into lifetime lovers of golf. This is the true measure of a teaching professional.

Gary Burdick

Gary Burdick is a unique combination of golf teacher, scientist and player. Gary currently plays on the Florida Senior Golf Tour. Not only has he shot many competitive scores in the 60’s, and has had 8 hole in ones, he can explain scientifically how it happened.  His knowledge of geometry, physics, anatomy, psychology and how they apply to golf is unparalleled.

He will not teach on a one-on-one basis unless the student is exceptionally intrigued and/or interested in his method.  What he is willing to do is impart his vast knowledge via the internet through lectures and he will answer questions from interested and motivated participants.

Gary can be found motivating our “Kids in Golf” when he is not playing professionally.

Our new website:
 http://www.TeachYourselfGolf.net, is currently under construction.

The overview is that once a student acquires certain knowledge he or she will be able to essentially teach themselves how to perform through meaningful and educated practice.
