Michael Moore - PGA Professional
Mike graduated in 2010 with a BSc honours degree in Sports Management and Psychology via the US collegiate system. Subsequent to this, he aspired to be a tournament professional competing on the DP World Tour. While success came on smaller tours in the UK, regrettably he did not reach his goal of playing amongst the very best. Instead, Mike has devoted himself to studying the physical mechanics and temperament required to succeed in golf, and now guides like-minded people on a realistic path to reach their goals. Through his application, Mike heads up the very successful HWGC Juniors programme.

A long-standing PGA Professional with three decades of golf coaching experience, Alastair has a rich background in the sport, highlighted by his participation in the 2022 British Senior Open at Gleneagles. Specialising in chipping coaching, Alastair emphasises the importance of these short shots, comparing them to simple tasks like tapping a nail or throwing a ball.
He uses Trackman technology for precise shot analysis and offers services such as Gap Testing for exact carry yardages and driver distance optimisation. Whether enhancing finesse or power, Alastair's expertise helps students reach their full potential on the course.
If you’re keen to be introduced to golf and meet and socialise with like-minded,
supportive ladies members, then the Ladies Taster Sessions is an ideal platform to integrate with Hadley Wood’s active golfing and social scene.
Since the spring of 2024, more than 40 ladies have taken up the free Taster Session offers, run each year by our teaching professionals, and begun playing one of North London’s top golf clubs. They have taken part in various social events organised by our ladies members, formed social groups and encouraged each other through the many teaching clinics.
Many of the participants went on to join our Ladies Academy programme (https://www.hadleywoodgc.com/ladies_academy_membership), a pathway for complete beginners to become full members of the golf club over a period of two years or less. (More details are found in the Ladies section of the website).
In the late spring 2025 Taster series, more than 20 ladies participated in the four-day sessions which consisted of free 90-minute golfing tutorials with our pros each day, followed by group chats with members, drinks and cake.
Hadley Wood supplied all the golfing equipment, and those who were returning to the game also had an opportunity to dust off their clubs.
It was a great atmosphere of learning, new friendships and collegiality.
Resident PGA professional Daniel Edwards led the sessions and was a great source of encouragement and confidence for all the participants.
So much so that 15 women signed up for the summer sessions with a view to joining the two-year Academy programme.
Last year, five ladies who joined the Academy from the Taster sessions became full members - joining Hadley Wood’s growing Ladies membership, engaging in the Club’s active social scene, playing in competitions against each other and other clubs, and even winning the odd prize, all with great enthusiasm.
If this sounds like fun and you are interested in joining the free Ladies Taster
Sessions, you don’t have to wait until next year. We have various lesson options
running throughout the summer and autumn. Just give the Pro Shop a call and ask to speak to Jack Frances or Daniel Edwards on 020 8449 4328 ext. 1.
