JT Tackett has been in the
golf business since 1999 and has spent a majority of that time as an
instructor and club fitter. As Director of Instruction & Club
Fitting at Bentwater GC, JT was host to Hall of Fame instructor Manuel
de la Torre for several years of teaching seminars. While at Bentwater,
JT was fortunate to assist in the opening of the first Nike Golf fitting
center in the United States (2012). He got to visit Nike’s golf R&D
facility, The Oven, where he was certified in Nike’s NG360 Functional
Performance System, educating JT in the movement of the body in the golf
swing.
JT has been at BridgeMill Athletic Club for the past five years and
since joining the Georgia Golf Performance team, has acquired fitting
certifications with all major brands. He has also completed the
Performance Enhancement Specialist certification through the National
Academy of Sports and Medicine (NASM), furthering his understanding of
the biomechanics in the movement of the body in the golf swing, along
with pain management techniques and injury prevention. He assists
players that have physical limitations or have come off of a rehab to
find safe and improved ranges of motion in their golf swings.
JT has worked with students of all abilities and all levels, combining
these skills to help students understand the brain, body and club
connection in their golf games.
