Butch Catone
Butch Catone has been teaching golf for more than 20 years and has been involved in golf sales and technical work for major companies including Orlimar, Yonex, Mizuno, Goldwin and Ping. He is currently a respected custom club fitter and staff member of Callaway Golf. Butch brings his experience and knowledge of the game to all aspects of his teaching.
As a partner in the John O’Leary Golf Academy, he works with John to create the best experience in all clinics, individual lessons, and on-course instruction for all levels of golfers. Butch has effectively created a comfortable coaching/instructional relationship with a wide customer base focusing on the enjoyment of learning to swing the golf club.
His teaching method includes the use of V1 software video for a visual/technical picture of your swing matched together with “feeling” the release of the club from the initial takeaway through the downswing and finish. His plan is to create realistic golf goals for every individual regardless of experience, gender, age or physical ability.

By the way, I’d like to thank you for the improvement in my game. Since I’d come back from surgery, I was very frustrated because I couldn’t hit the ball at all. Since the three lessons with you, I began to improve slowly. This past Sunday (after I remembered one of your key tips while on the driving range before my round), my game suddenly reappeared. I played a terrific round that day. Even though I’d been playing badly, I could sense that it would get much better if I focused on those things you’d told me to do. And, sure enough, that’s exactly what happened.
Even at my age and the accompanying physical limitations, I’m convinced working with you will bring continued improvement to my game. I have hope…and that’s an awesome feeling for which I have you to thank. Ricardo
