Your coach

Meet Joe Lovery

I’m a PGA Accredited Professional and Recognised Specialist Coach. I’ve coached full-time since 2019, spent three years specialising in putting and built Ilkley Golf Studios to give golfers a dedicated place to work on their game year-round.

I’ve worked with golfers from their first lessons to tour professionals, including Mark James and Ryder Cup caddie Billy Foster. One of my longest coaching journeys has been with Huey Cunningham, who went from a 28-handicap junior to winning at Final Open Qualifying and earning a US Division I golf scholarship.

In your lesson, we’ll start with the shots that cost you on the course. We’ll agree what to work on, test it together and make sure you know how to take it into your next round.

Lessons and programmes

Find the right lesson

Start with a one-to-one lesson, build a longer-term plan or spend a session working specifically on your putting.

Private golf lessons

Start with the shot you struggle to trust on the course. We’ll look at your ball flight, use video and launch monitor data where they help, then work on a change you can feel and repeat. You’ll leave knowing what to practise and how to tell if it’s working.

Monthly coaching plans

If you want to make lasting changes to your game, regular sessions give us time to test what’s holding up on the course and adjust the plan as you improve. Each session builds on the last, with a clear focus for the time you spend practising in between.

Putting coaching

If you’re missing putts you expect to hole, we’ll look at start line, pace and how you deliver the putter. SAM PuttLab measures the stroke so we can pinpoint what to work on and give you drills that carry over to the green.

The studio

Inside Ilkley Golf Studios

Every lesson takes place at my purpose-built indoor studio in Ilkley, West Yorkshire. The ProTee VX launch monitor tracks what the ball and club are doing, and high-speed video lets us watch the swing back together. In the dedicated putting room, SAM PuttLab measures how the putter moves through impact.

You can also book a bay between lessons to work on the same drills and track your progress.
