Austin Crutchfield, PGA Professional

Austin Crutchfield is a PGA Professional with seven years of experience in the golf industry. A graduate of the PGM Program at Mississippi State University, Austin competed in PGM tournament events during his training and has since worked as an assistant golf professional at high-end country clubs and taught at respected golf academies.

Austin works with players of all ages and skill levels, with a particular focus on swing mechanics. His teaching philosophy centers on the idea that every golfer's swing is unique; rather than forcing players into a single mold, he helps them refine their own natural swing into the most efficient and effective version of itself.

That same philosophy shapes what clients can expect from a lesson with Austin: a relaxed, personalized session focused on understanding what works best for their individual swing. He blends this individualized approach with technology and data (his favorite tool is TrackMan's Optimizer feature) so players leave every lesson with a clearer understanding of their swing and a concrete idea of what to work on next.

Austin's passion for teaching traces back to a mentor he had growing up, a fellow PGA Professional who invested heavily in him as a young player. Now, having the chance to pour that same guidance into others is what keeps him excited to teach and play the game.
