The Silvertip Golf Academy is focused solely around you and your golf related goals and ambitions. We recognize that every golfer is different and that there are many different styles of learning, many different approaches to the game and many different expectations from instruction. We begin by determining your expectations for learning and structure our programs to meet your goals. In other words: We teach you what you want to learn not what we want to teach you.

We offer a wide variety of instructional packages for men, women and children 4 and up. Please call our Golf Shop at 1-877-877-5444 for more information.

Golf is his passion, his business. Travis grew up on the golf courses in the Kootenay's calling Nelson, BC home since birth. As a graduate of the Professional Golf Management program in Lethbridge, he began his professional career at the Balfour Golf Course in the late 90's and he became the Head Professional at Granite Pointe Golf Club in Nelson in 2004. During his time at Granite Pointe, Travis' upbeat personality, business sense and deep love for the game lead him to the General Manager role in 2008. Over his time in the Kootenay's Travis was recognized on the local golf scene as one of the top Professional golfers, laying claim to numerous titles in the region.

Travis joined the Silvertip team in July of 2010 in the capacity of Head Golf Professional.
