Virgil Herring      

Owner of Higher Performance Golf Academy & Best-Selling author

Acclaimed golf teacher Virgil Herring has helped players reach the PGA Tour, earn college scholarships, and has assisted PGA and LPGA players, college players and “regular” golfers achieve their goals. The way to do it, according to Herring, is to “take a weakness and make it a strength.” Herring now provides “The Golf Journal” as a system for discovering where you are losing strokes on the course and the tools to know how to get those strokes back.

Herring has an extensive background in golf instruction, with more than 19 years of experience and over 32,000 lessons taught. He is a Charter Member Golf Channel Academy Lead Instructor and a two-time recipient of the Tennessee PGA Section Teacher of the Year. Herring has taught two PGA tour winners, two Web.com Tour winners, and more than 154 junior golfers who have earned college golf scholarships.
