Meet River Oaks Golf Course’s Golf Pro: Barrett Boe

 

At River Oaks Golf Course, the resident golf pro brings a wealth of experience to the table. Barrett Boe has given thousands of lessons to golfers of every level, and has been a golf pro for 28 years.

Barrett is a coach, through and through. It was clear during lessons that I was taking lessons from someone who knew how to coach others and bring out their best every lesson. His positive attitude helps golfers unlock their potential, regardless of their skill level.

Lessons with Barrett really showed that he values the fundamentals of the golf swing and makes sure that his students are able to adjust their movements based on their needs. This personal touch to the lessons shows that when working with him you’re not just another hole in the calendar, but a person that he is devoting time and effort to help achieve their goals.

So, if you’re looking for a seasoned golf pro who is able to coach you to reach new heights in your golf game– Barrett Boe is your guy.

A personalized approach to golf instruction

If you decide to take lessons from River Oaks’s Golf Pro, Barret Boe, PGA, you should expect to have a personalized and tailor-made experience starting the first lesson. During my lessons, I found him to be extremely adaptable and willing to work with me due to some needs that other golfers may not have. Because lessons are such a personal experience, I really value the way the lessons were molded as they worked for me, and I didn’t have to try to adapt to them.

In any sport I’ll always recommend learning from a coach that is willing to break down the complexities and help you through adversity when you’re struggling to get some things right– and that’s Barrett. Starting a new sport is difficult, but it becomes fun when you work with someone who genuinely tries to help you have a positive experience and outcome.

I’ve never golfed before (or, at least anything more than a few holes and a few trips to the driving range), so golf was somewhat of a foreign concept to me. However, I did play other sports like basketball for decades, so it was very humbling to start out as a beginner in something new.

Barrett quickly figured out that if he connected some terms to movements that I would have to make in basketball, it became a lot easier to help me learn the mechanics of the golf swing. It was relieving to know that I wasn’t necessarily starting from completely nothing, and that years of muscle memory could be put to good use in golf.

Because of the personalized approach that Barrett has with his lessons, I will admit it was a lot easier for me to learn during the lessons. Things really were more easy to grasp, and after having a few injuries that limit some movements, it was nice to know that there were ways to compensate for that.

I would 100% recommend River Oaks’s Barrett Boe for lessons any day.

Patient guidance every step of the way

Patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to mastering the intricate art of golf. And, to be honest, Barrett Boe probably had to rally his patience when it came to my frustration.

Golf is not an easy sport, which is something we discussed. You’ll have far more bad shots than good ones, which can be a hard concept to grasp for a perfectionist like me. After playing sports and excelling in them for years, it was a hard lesson to learn when I started to try to golf… and I really didn’t do well.

It was a little embarrassing for me, considering I really didn’t even know how to hold the club properly or what a decent golf swing even looked like. Even in my newborn stage of golf, Barrett worked with me to the point where I was getting some good hits that were used in a scramble tournament after only two lessons.

To be honest, that was only possible because of Barrett’s patience. He provides patient and encouraging guidance throughout every lesson. It’s clear that he understands that everyone progresses at their own pace and supports them in both their triumphs and lows. It is evident that he works to make sure every golfer feels supported, motivated, and inspired to improve their game.

Flexibility and valuing the golfer’s experience

Barrett Boe places immense value on your experience and understands that flexibility is key to effective golf instruction. One thing I think is important in any service industry is the value of time– and in some ways, golf lessons are another facet of the service industry. So, it’s only right that Barrett is pretty flexible and works with his students to find lesson times that work for them.

Obviously, flexibility fluctuates throughout the different seasons, so that’s always something to keep in mind. However, he does show that he values your time and caters to your needs. Barrett is willing to adjust lesson plans, address specific concerns, and provide extra attention where needed. Your success and satisfaction are his top priorities, and he goes above and beyond to ensure your time spent learning is productive, enjoyable, and worthwhile.

I’m not able to keep specific times each week due to my schedule, but Barrett works with me so I can participate in lessons when I am available. It’s nice to know that my busy schedule doesn’t have to dictate what I can and can’t do. Due to his flexibility, I’m able to find time here and there to develop my golf game and start a sport that is quickly becoming a fulfilling hobby.
