“Jack [Hume] and I work with the same coach, Brendan
McDaid, so I knew I was facing a very tough match,” said
McDonagh. “He came back well at me after getting off to a bad
start but every time I come to this course, I feel completely at home
and that stood to me. I took a lot of positives out of reaching last
year’s final when John Greene virtually putted me off the course,
but there is still a long way to go.”Kelan McDonagh [ The Irish Times, July 27, 2011]
Along
with my 9 & 10 year old children we took our first lessons after
having never swung a golf club before. We are thoroughly enjoying the
lessons and plan on keeping them up. Brendan has a great way with the
kids and it has turned into our ""Thursday night out"" as much as our
Thursday night lesson. It's been a great introduction for us all in
golfing We would definitely recommend Brendan's golf academy to anyone
and it looks like he has been receiving positive reviews from both
amateurs and professionals for many years as can be seen from this
review back in 2002. http://indigo.ie/~kands/kands/html/mcdaid.html

Hi Brendan, Laura here. I was playing in the Grange

following what you instructed them to do. I think its now about gaining
confidence. Again, thanks a million for today!

Played the senior cup this weekend. Played the golf of my
life! Was 3 under through 14 when called in and was 2 up on an
interprovincial! Your lesson made a huge difference to my driving.
Barely missed a fairway all day. Thanks Lad! You're the man. Up in
Portrush for the North of Ireland. Made it into the South, so chuffed.
Thanks for all your help over the last couple of years. Made all the
difference.
