Hi, my name is Jere'
Pelletier. I was born and
brought up in Lynn, Mass.
I am one of five brothers,
two sisters and a myriad
of foster children that my Mom
and Dad raised. I moved
to NH in late '89.
I have
2 great children, Shawn
and Briana, 4
grandchildren Peyton,
Brooke, Avery and C J.
Both of my kids
reside in the Jacksonville
Florida area. I am extremely
proud of my kids, and love
them more than words can
describe!
I was a
fire fighter in Lynn,
Mass. and was hurt
(knees) fighting a fire
in January of 1981. I
ended up retiring as a
result of the injury in
1984. Being still able
to golf, I ended up in
Florida looking for
work, and ended up
working at Royal Oak
Country Club, in
Titusville, Fla.
Starting out as a ranger
and starter, that
changed when playing
with the pro's at the
course on an even basis
(no strokes given or
taken) and taking a few
bucks off of them,
I was moved up to an
assistant pro
position there in 1985.
I fell in love with the
golf business, and found
out that I have a God
given talent for
teaching golf. I have been
a teaching pro ever since.
The Golf Guy shop is
the result of $15 as a
start-up cost ( 1 set of
clubs sold in front of my
house in a yard sale), In
order to grow the business
I ended up eating
virtually nothing but
peanut butter, raisin
bran, and cheap tuna fish
for several years. By
re-investing profits year
after year, the shop has
grown into a great
business. I am
fortunate enough to own a
house in Florida and be
able to play and teach all
year long.
I live to a quote by
Abraham Lincoln .."people
are about as happy as they
make up their minds to be"
I
learned my teaching skills
from a variety of other
golf pro's, and have a God
given gift of being able
to see your swing in slow
motion, making it much
easier to delineate what
your swing strengths and
flaws are. Most of my
students are able to learn
at an accelerated rate as
a result. I have quite a
strong following, and
enjoy sharing in my
clienteles successes.
