John Callahan
John Callahan, a graduate of Stonehill College in Massachusetts, earned Class “A” membership into the PGA of America in 1970. A fine player, Callahan is a former winner of both the Vermont PGA Stroke Play and Match Play Championships and was a member of the Tournament Players Division of the PGA in 1977 and 1978. Callahan has been the Head Golf Professional at private, public and resort courses, and since 2007 John has owned and operated The Callahan Golf Learning Center in Colchester, Connecticut. All through his career Callahan’s passion has been for teaching people the game of golf. He has given over 30,000 lessons to players ranging from beginners to PGA and LPGA Professionals. In 2011, Callahan’s teaching acumen was recognized by Golf Magazine which named him an “Adjunct-Top 100 Golf Instructor of America,” one of only seven included in the Short Game Instruction category out of thousands of nominees throughout the country. A believer that balance, tempo and a great short game are the key elements in scoring, Mr. Callahan was also pleased to become a full time faculty member at Keiser University’s College of Golf in 2011.
