Diagnose the Root Cause. Then Fix the Right Thing.

A 1,100-lesson library paired with a diagnostic system that tells you which drill applies to your swing, not somebody else's.

1,100+ Guided Lessons
26,000+ Fix Plan Diagnoses
3 PGA Tour Endorsements

There is a version of you who walks off the 18th having shot your lowest round of the year, and knows exactly why.

He did not take up golf yesterday. He has been stuck at the same handicap for the last three summers. One day he finally stopped hopping between random YouTube drills and ran a real diagnosis on his swing. Thirty minutes later he had one root cause, a practice plan for it, and a number to track.

This is the room where that version of you lives. Tyler Ferrell runs it.

A system, not a playlist.

You have watched fifty YouTube lessons. You still do not know what is actually wrong with your swing.

You saw the clip about the right elbow. You saw the other one about hip rotation. You saw the guy who said none of it matters, only face-to-path. Three of them contradict each other. You wrote notes on your phone and tried two of them on Saturday. One kind of worked. Then you thinned a nine iron off the fat of the 17th green and remembered why you stopped watching swing videos last August.

You paid eighty dollars for a club lesson. Your pro told you your weight was going back too early. He showed you one drill. For six holes you were a different golfer. Then the old habit crept in around the 14th and nobody was there to ask why.

Your handicap has not moved in three years. Your playing partners are hitting it past you now. You have more instruction in your head than any golfer should, and you still do not know what to work on.

This is not a talent problem. It is a diagnosis problem.

Tyler Ferrell

The only person in the world on both of Golf Digest's Best Young Teachers AND Best Golf Fitness Professionals lists.

Tyler wrote Stock Tour Swing, the reference book tour pros hand to their own students when they want to understand what their swing is actually doing. He built Golf Smart Academy to put the same framework he uses in person, at La Rinconada Country Club, inside a web app that works on your phone at the range.

He has shown up on Golf Channel, in Golf Digest, and on the swing analysis tablet of more than one PGA Tour player. What makes his teaching different is not the drill library. It is the system behind the library, the Fix Plan diagnostic, that tells you which drill applies to YOUR swing.

One Membership. The Whole Library. A Real Diagnostic On Top.

1,100 guided video lessons is a lot. The system that tells you which twelve of them apply to YOUR swing is the reason you join.

01 / Diagnose

Free Fix Plan First

Five short video lessons that diagnose the root cause of your biggest issue. Distance, consistency, contact, or direction. You run the Fix Plan, you find your actual fault, and then you walk into the full library knowing what you are looking for.

02 / Fix

Courses Matched to Your Diagnosis

Structured courses built around the fault the Fix Plan found. Not a shelf of random videos. The exact drill sequence that fixes your specific problem, with Tyler's video Q&A on every single lesson so you can ask a question the second it comes up.

03 / Refine

Mulligan AI & The Community

Ask anything about your golf game and get AI answers grounded in the 1,100-lesson library. Post your swing in the community forum and wake up to feedback from fellow members and coaches. Your next practice session has a purpose.

Inside the Library

Six Pillars. Thirty-Plus Structured Courses.

Not another playlist. Every course begins with a fault and ends with a before / after.

Pillar 01

Fix Your Faults

The courses that turned Golf Smart Academy into a 26,000-member diagnostic platform

  • Fix Your Slice, Fix Your Hook, Fix Early Extension, Stop the Scoop, Fix Fat & Thin Shots, Fast Fault Fixes
  • Each course begins with a root-cause diagnostic, not a generic drill dump
  • Tyler's video Q&A on every lesson, so the second a question comes up, the answer is there

  • Gain 20 Yards, Build Effortless Speed, and the Longer Drives Bonus Series
  • Where club head speed actually comes from, and why muscling it costs you distance
  • The three setup checkpoints that unlock 10 to 20 yards before you even take the club back

  • Bunker Escape: the one-and-done drill for the hazard most amateurs fear
  • A repeatable wedge matrix so you stop guessing the yardage on anything inside 100

Pillar 04

Putting & Scoring

Where saved strokes are hiding in plain sight

  • Stock Putting Course, Putting Mastery, and Playing Smart Golf (the scoring course)
  • Break 90 and Break 80: target-based programs, not "hit it better" generalities
  • How to plan a round around the shots you already have, not the ones you wish you had
  • The course management patterns that shave three strokes before you touch a drill
Included Free With Your Annual Plan

Three Tools That Make the Library Travel With You.

Because watching a video at home is one thing. Fixing your ball flight at the range is another.

These are just example free bonuses meant to increase conversion rates on your main offer. This has been the difference between getting a 1x breakeven for my clients and getting a 4x return.

Full-Service Paid Growth for Founder-Led Brands

I run Facebook and Instagram ads for founder-led education businesses.

My clients are people like you: creators and educators who have built real audiences through years of hard work, great content, and word of mouth. They come to me when they are ready to pour fuel on what is already working.

I'm selective. The business has to genuinely help people, the customers have to love it, and I have to feel proud if someone found out I was behind the ads. Golf Smart Academy checks every box.

Since January 2026

What Has Actually Happened in the Last Few Months.

Not hypothetical. Not from three years ago. These happened in the last few months.

New York Times Bestseller.

Got a client onto the New York Times bestseller list. He had been chasing that goal on his own for over a decade. I built the campaign that finally got him there.

New York Times bestseller proof

$1M in 11 Days.

Generated nearly $1,000,000 in revenue through Facebook ads alone for a single client, in just 11 days. Same client, same product. Better strategy, better creative, better pages.

Sold Out a Live Event, Pro Bono.

Ran a volunteer campaign for a live event. Sold out every seat at 3x ROAS. I did it for free because I believed in the event.

Created My Own Offer From Scratch.

Launched ads in beginning of March 2026 and already grossed $26K in the last 30 days.

How I Work

100% Performance-Based. Since January 2015.

I don't charge if it's not profitable. That's not a tagline. It's been the deal for over eleven years.

"You Cover the Ad Spend. I Earn My Keep."

I take a percentage of the growth I bring in, only after the math works. After ad spend. After your expenses. After my fee. If it's not profitable after everything is accounted for, where you make more than I do, I don't charge. That's why I only take on clients I'm confident I can deliver for. I never spend just to spend.

"Full-Service. Not Just Ads."

Facebook ads management is the core, but I also build the landing pages, create the ad visuals, and develop new bonuses designed to lift conversion rates on both the ads and the offer. Everything on this pitch page, the design, the copy, the bonus kit, is the kind of work I do for every client.

"You Keep Everything. No Strings."

Every page, bonus, and creative asset I build is yours. Use it for organic traffic, email campaigns, wherever. No exclusivity clauses, no extra percentages. If something I made helps your audience through a channel I'm not running, that's a win.

This Is What Your Ads Would Look Like

A Preview From the Sample Campaign I Built for You.

One concept, inline. I have four more in the full campaign file.

Chris Como used to coach Tiger Woods. Stan Utley is a PGA Tour winner. Charles Howell III has 388 Tour starts. They all publicly say the same thing about one golf instructor. "One of the best in the business." "One of the most knowledgeable people in the world." "He cleared my mind of useless clutter." That instructor is Tyler Ferrell. He is the only person in the world named to BOTH Golf Digest's Best Young Teachers AND Best Golf Fitness Professionals lists. He does not teach "swing tips." He runs a diagnostic called a Fix Plan. Five short video lessons pin down the root cause of your biggest issue, and then the system tells you which of his 1,100 lessons actually applies to YOUR swing. The Fix Plan is free. 26,000 golfers have already taken it.
