Peter Donahue, PGA
Senior Coach | TGP

Peter Donahue
Founder & Director of Instruction
A brief conversation with Peter, who’s nearing 40 years as a PGA Professional, reflects why he’s won numerous awards and accolades as one of Chicago’s top golf coaches.
“Anything can be learned” is the cornerstone of his coaching philosophy. “Skill development and behavior modification go hand-in-hand. Learning how to practice well, and learning to enjoy your practice, is a fundamental aspect of enjoying the game of golf.”

A PGA Professional for 15 years, Chris is our performance academy’s Director of Instruction. He has been recognized by the Illinois PGA and U.S. Kids Golf as a leader in instruction.
Chris, whose teaching philosophy was molded from the tutelage of Hank Haney and Stan Utley, has worked with players of all abilities — from the professional and college ranks to competitive youth golfers, elite amateurs and recreational players. One of his strengths is being able to develop personalized training plans that facilitate deeper learning and retention for students.

Dr. Arthur Hoffman
Mental Coaching

Dr. Arthur Hoffman
Mindfulness-based Mental Conditioning Coach
Dr. Hoffman first came to The Golf Practice for lessons. As time passed, Peter and Chris realized what an asset Arthur’s knowledge of the mental side of golf could be to golf students. Arthur joined the team shortly thereafter and began teaching mindfulness to the Mastery 360 program participants.
Mindfulness is a training, or one might say re-training, of the mind. This training awakens and strengthens neural pathways in the brain that are inherent to everyone but are often overlooked in our day-to-day lives, not to mention during the preparation for, and execution of, a golf swing. Mindfulness practice helps us to become more present to our experience and on autopilot less often.

Jantzen Miserak
Senior Coach & Junior Program Director
Born and raised in Dallas, Jantzen attended Sam Houston State University and completed its PGA Golf Management Program, which led to an opportunity with The Golf Practice.
Jantzen specializes in the short game and helps players understand the essential fundamentals that so many golfers are missing. Jantzen believes in building one repeatable shot. From there, he works with players on how to make small adjustments to create an arsenal of shots.

Andy Hayes
Lead Coach | TGP

Andy Hayes
Lead Coach & Master Club Fitter
Andy grew up in Minneapolis before moving to Chicago to play golf at North Park University, where he is currently the assistant men’s golf coach.
The best way learning occurs is through self-discovery and experience rather than through processing information. There is plenty of information out there, but it isn’t helpful if you can’t put it into play in your unique swing.
Andy sees his role as first identifying the most important parts of the student’s swing that they are unaware of. He then helps the student better understand what they are currently doing by using video, mirrors, barriers, and examples, and then communicates the difference between their current action and what motion would help them play better. The final step is bridging the gap between the two. Andy’s main coaching influences are Tim Gallwey, George Gankas and Michael Murphy.

Andrew Martinez-Grant
Coach | TGP

Andrew Martinez-Grant
Coach & Junior Program Coordinator
Andrew’s love for the game began while growing up in Scotland, where he honed a golf game that landed him a scholarship on the men’s golf team at Lewis University. After graduation, Andrew spent two seasons as the head men’s and women’s golf coach at Robert Morris University.
Andrew stresses that the swing should be based more on feel, especially in the short game, rather than being too mechanical. As the Junior Program Coordinator, Andrew specializes in the development of junior golfers and takes great pride in seeing them grow and progress through the ranks of junior golf.
