Dr. Jim Suttie (known by his students simply as
"Doc") is one of the world's best-known and most-respected golf
instructors. His students include many of golf's top professional
and amateur stars, but he still works one-on-one with anyone who
would like to come to his lesson tees at Cog Hill G.&C.C. in
Lemont, IL in the summer and at The Club at TwinEagles in Naples,
FL in the winter.
In 2000, he was named the PGA of America's
National Teacher of the Year and is a three-time winner of the same
award from the PGA's Illinois Section. He's also included among
GOLF Magazine's Top 100 Teachers and is ranked as one of the Top 20
teachers in America on Golf Digest's 50 Greatest Teachers
list.
For more than three decades, Doc Suttie has been
devoted to developing a teaching framework for golfers by applying
biomechanical principles to the golf swing. This framework
optimizes the relationship between each individual's natural build
and the golf swing that is the most easily adaptable to it. Without
question, he has improved the games of thousands of golfers from
around the globe.
Doc's decades of motor learning and
biomechanical research (his doctorate is in Biomechanics), have
culminated in some of golf's most revolutionary teaching methods
such as those detailed in his ground-breaking book The LAW's of the
Golf Swing. The concepts in the book became a hugely popular GOLF
Magazine cover story soon after its publication in 1998. Doc
continues his research today and works with his staff instructors
to communicate what he has learned to all of their
students.
Doc has taught many of the best-known golfers in
the world including PGA TOUR stars Paul Azinger, Chip Beck, Loren
Roberts, Brad Elder, David Ogrin and Mark Wilson. Students who have
consulted with Dr. Suttie include Carin Koch, Silvia Cavalleri,
Mark Lye, Vicki Goetze-Ackerman and Steve Flesch. Additionally, Doc
is a frequent contributor to such national publications as Golf
Digest, GOLF Magazine, Golf Illustrated and Golf Tips Magazine and
he is seen frequently on The Golf Channel. His depth and breadth of
knowledge about the golf swing has also made him a very popular
speaker for PGA teaching seminars around the world and at the PGA's
biannual Teaching and Coaching Summits.
