Background

I started playing golf my junior year at Farragut High School. Through serious pursuit and self-teaching, I continued to improve my game. By the time I graduated from the University of Tennessee I was a two handicap and starting graduate school.

While finishing graduate classes, I was presented with an opportunity to become an Assistant Golf Instructor for The Medalist at Avalon. Having a chance to work on my game and teach at the same time, I entered the golf industry.

In the Fall of 1997, I turned professional and have since been an instructor at Avalon and Fairways and Greens Golf Center.

Philosophy

I believe in keeping it simple. If you have an understanding of how the club is designed to work and how you swing the club, you can gain better control of where the ball goes. I find that's the name of the game, right???

So, I will teach you how the club works and how it affects the ball flight. Then, I'll show you how to swing the club properly. From there we will add body movement and tweak grip, posture and/or alignment to more effectively swing the club.

But, the bottom line is that you have to have a working knowledge of how to use the club. If not, all the other stuff is inconsequential.

  • "I've been to many teachers and learned many philosophies. Byron Williams' message is very simple - he teaches to the individual. I've improved more under Byron than any other golf instructor."

    Scott Master, 2006 Tennessee PGA Section Champion

  • "I've been working with Byron Williams for upwards of 10 years. I have gone from an average amateur golfer to my goals as both a collegiate golfer and now playing at the professional level. The thing that impresses me most about Byron is his passion for learning the game and foreseeing his students improve. There is more to an instructor than just drawing a line with a computer screen and telling you what position to put the golf club in. I would recommend Byron to any golfer whether you are a 20 handicapper, scratch golfer, or a professional."

    Matt Mincer, 2007 Altantic 10 Champion & Mini Tour Player

  • "I've known Byron for over 10 years and he has changed by game tremendously since I was about 14 years old. He has done so much for me. He's a great friend and a great coach. He has taken my game to new heights and I thank him for the victories that I've had over the years. Byron played a huge roll in my 2006 Tennessee State Open win. He has just taken my game to new levels both physically and mentally. Thanks Bryon, you're a great coach."

    Justin Metzger, 2006 Tennessee State Open Champion

  • "Byron's casual, yet professional approach to golf instruction was just what I needed as a new player. He got to know me first and then got me to apply proper golf techniques by associating them with things and motions I was already familiar with. I have continued my instruction with Byron and, while I'll never make the pro tour, my handicap continues to drop and I enjoy the game more after ever new tip. Thanks Byron!"
