Personalized Golf Coaching | Competitive Player Development
Jon Flint is a nationally recognized golf instructor dedicated to helping players of all ages and skill levels unlock their potential. As Director of Instruction at Commonwealth National Golf Club, he combines advanced technology, biomechanics, and a passion for teaching to deliver personalized coaching that gets results.
Teaching Philosophy
Jon believes every golfer is unique. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all method, he tailors his approach to each student’s natural tendencies, biomechanics, and goals. By focusing on impactful changes, Jon ensures that practice leads to real improvement on the course. His coaching blends technical instruction with mental strategies like visualization and managing emotions, creating well-rounded players who thrive under pressure.
A Lifelong Passion for Golf
Growing up on a farm in North Central Pennsylvania, Jon found a love for the game watching Tiger dominate on tour in the late 90’s and he taught himself to play golf by reading Golf Digest and hitting balls in the fields around his house. Jon’s hard work paid off, earning him a spot on his high school golf team and later playing competitively for Penn State’s club golf team. Today, Jon is an active member of the Philadelphia PGA REACH committee, volunteers at local section golf events, and continues to challenge himself by competing in local Philadelphia PGA tournaments, staying sharp and connected to the competitive side of the game.
