Charlie King Bio

Charlie King grew up in Decatur, Tenn., and was bitten by the golf bug as a student at Tennessee Tech. Charlie began his golf career in 1988 as an assistant pro, then as a teaching pro at Swing's the Thing Golf Schools at Orange Lake Country Club. In the 1990's, he taught at The Golf Academy of the South where he took great pride in helping students achieve their own dreams in the golf industry.  Author of the first golf instruction book written in novel form, "You're NOT Lifting Your Head," the book marks the beginning of Charlie's efforts to see fundamental change in the way golfers approach learning golf. He believes that more people could enjoy this game more fully if they only knew how. In 2005 he co-authored "Golf's Red Zone Challenge" - a results-oriented approach to improving the short game.

Ranked among the Top 100 Golf Instructors by GOLF Magazine, Charlie King joined Reynolds Plantation in March 2006 as Director of Instruction. Not everybody can win the Masters.  There's only that select one each year.  For Charlie King, golf instruction is about helping golfers win their Masters, whatever that personal goal may be. It's a distinction that guides the veteran instructor and 16-year PGA of America member through the development of programming for Reynolds Golf Academy.
