Instructors and Golf Academy Experts:
Tyler Clark
Tyler grew up in eastern Ohio and found his love for the game in 2004 after his first deployment when he was enlisted in the Army.  Golf was a great escape from the lifestyle of a soldier and he really began falling in love with the game.  From there Tyler was once again deployed and he passionately pursued the game, and studied golf in detail whenever possible.  After he fulfilled his obligation to the U.S. Army he attended Kent State University Tuscarawas and lettered 4 years on the golf team.  He knew then his life goal was to be a part of the golf industry and teaching was his niche.  He then attended The Golf Academy of America where he focused on honing his teaching skills.  Tyler currently lives in San Antonio, Texas where he is living his dream.

Thomas Wright
Thomas was born and raised in the Capital Region in upstate New York. He developed a love for the game from the awe-inspiring skills of one Eldrick Tont Woods. He developed a solid short game through Executive Courses through out the Upstate New York area. From there he moved up for a more challenging task to Championship caliber courses. He decided he would like to pursue a career in teaching the game of golf and attended the Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach, SC. He won two tournaments and finished 3rd in a Match play semester long event at the GAA.  Also while attending he did a ton of Volunteer work including: The First Tee, US Kids Golf, and many different tournament operations work( World Am, Carolina Amateur). His love for teaching came at a young age where he helped his friends develop the love and passion for the game that he had.  He has been teaching golf for years and realized how important it is to actually see what you are doing as opposed to relying on feel. Thomas is a big believer in the Philosophy of the Edwin Watts Golf Academy. Proper feedback is the key to improving your golf game.

Originally from East Tennessee, Dave learned the game of golf from watching his Dad and friends play.  He's always had a love for the game and decieded to further his passion for golf while attending the Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach, SC where Dave earned a degree in Golf Complex Operations and Management and also a Certificate in Advanced Teaching. While he was there, Dave also honed his teaching skills by working with several Master PGA and PGA instructors.  Dave also volunteered alot of his time for the US Kids tour, rules official for the World Am and other local events in the area.  After spending over a year in the Birmingham, AL academy,  Dave moved to the Southlake, TX location to help continue growing the Edwin Watts Golf Academy.  He firmly believes in the teaching philosophy of the EWGA and making students realize the importance of practice.  He takes pride in seeing his students games get better with the help of positive feedback.  Dave's main focus is on the short game (putting, chipping, pitching) but he is proficient in all aspects of the game.
