Philosophy "Make the swing as simple and appropriate for the student in front of me" Every golfer is unique. Each has their own set of movements that you do well and those you could improve on. My goal is to evaluate each student, make the bodyswing connection and work within the framework of what you can physically do to reach your full potential. Golf Influences All the PGA professional that I’ve had the pleasure to work with that always encouraged me to reach my potential. Harvey Pennick – The little red and Green Book.

Testimonials "John's approach helped me 'feel' the golf swing in easy to understand steps and now I have an understanding of my faults and fixes. After working with John my handicap is down from a 27 to 14 and I see it dropping a few more points soon. In the last 3 weeks, I've posted my lowest 9-hole score (a 36) and my lowest 18-hole score with several 81's. Thanks again and I'll see you during the winter season." -- R. Sacbibit
"John Miller has a great eye for the golf swing. He has a great ability to describe improvements and needed changes in easy-to-understand language, rather than the ‘golfspeak’ that so many teachers communicate in. He is ready to work with what the student brings to the table, rather than in all cases breaking things down and starting from scratch. All his lessons are heading toward a larger goal, consistency, simplicity, and excellence….so the parts feed a greater whole". --B. Brydges.
"I am happy to say that since starting my lessons at Raspberry Falls Golf Academy my scores have gone from the mid-100's to breaking 100 on a consistent basis." -- D. Argenta
