Brilliant coach, extremely understanding, vast knowledge. Himself has the best golf swing I've ever seen. Thoroughly nice chap as well, shame he's partly retired. Any aspiring players of any worth should seek him out, you will not be disappointed.

I'm working with David now on my game. I'm very lucky and privileged to have sneaked in the back door to get to work with him. I've worked with several pro's. David understands the swing, the whys and hows of it, how to extract exactly whats best and discard whats not. Very professional, hard working and a nice fella.
