About Fred

A talented golf professional with a great track record and a real ability to teach.

Fred Jewsbury comes from a great golfing dynasty. His grandad, Cyril Jewsbury was a County player, Captain and President, playing a great game well into his 90’s. His father, John Jewsbury, took up the game aged six, joining Ladbrook Park and remaining there to this day, becoming first County Boys Chairman and then County President, playing to an excellent standard. His cousin, Carl Suneson, played on the European Tour and Challenge Tour for 18 years, with one major win and topping the Challenge Tour rankings in 1999, and is just embarking on the Staysure Tour for 2020.

With such an illustrious background, it was no surprise that Fred took up the game, starting with a handicap of 36 and bringing it down to 5 by his fifteenth birthday and going on to win the Ladbrook Park Club Championship at the age of 19. A regular in the Warwickshire County 1st team and qualifying for the national county finals, he achieved a handicap of plus three and was selected to represent the Midlands Golf Association against the South West. Achieving Amateur World Ranking at the Logonda Trophy with a top 6 finish enabled him to play in some the biggest amateur tournaments, including the St Andrews Links Trophy, The Portuguese Amateur and The British Amateur.

Fred now plays in PGA pro Ams and national events and has had success in both. With 2 professional wins under his belt he’s keen to add more in the future.

PGA Professional

Working under Head Professional, Julian Dodsworth at Stratford-Upon-Avon Golf Club, Fred completed his training to achieve PGA Golf Professional status. Since leaving Stratford-Upon-Avon to go to Stratford Park in summer 2021, Fred continues to play competitive golf while helping others to achieve their goals.

Fred has now been given the opportunity to be director of golf at Warwickshire Golf Sim, a state of the art indie facility where he uses TrackMan, GC Quad, Quintic and Golfzon to not only coach but to also custom fit golf clubs from all of the top manufacturers.

My handicap has reduced by 3 shots

"Fred has improved my game by being honest about my weaknesses. I do not get confused anymore because of the simple way Fred explains things and he doesn’t make me think of more than one thing at a time. My handicap has reduced by 3 shots since I started working with Fred and is only going one way!"

Annette Howells, Stratford On Avon GC

My iron play has improved no end

"Fred has a good coaching style, in that he works with what you have, rather than having a one method fits all philosophy; he doesn't try to make you do something you are not capable of. Never over complicating things, he speaks in Plain English rather than using catchy golf phrases, something I find refreshing. My iron play has improved no end and the rest of my game has benefited because of the confidence that gives me. Before instruction by Fred, I was surprised when I hit a good shot, now I'm upset when I don't"

Mike Salmon, Stratford on Avon GC

He has brought my game back to life

"My golf game was in the doldrums until I was given a voucher for my birthday to have a series of lessons with Freddie. Freddie has such a wonderful manner and patiently watched the many moving parts in my golf swing and instantly saw where he could make improvements and eliminate destructive habits. He clearly explains, and expertly demonstrates how even small changes can make a significant difference to how I strike the ball and the resulting shot. He has brought my game back to life. It is so easy to ‘groove’ bad habits, so I will be having regular maintenance sessions with Freddie."

Yvette Nunn, Stratford on Avon GC

Striking the ball cleaner than I ever have done

"Finally I’ve found a teacher that can explain to me why something happens and how to remedy it, in his own style that makes it enjoyable and easy to understand. My reverse pivot has gone and I’m striking the ball cleaner than I ever have done, with a draw to boot. With his help, I truly believe I’ll get to singles. Top lad!"

James Armstrong, 10 Handicap

Fred’s Teaching Philosophy

Having spent many hours on the range at European tour events such as The Dubai Desert Classic and The Scottish, Irish and English Opens, it became apparent to Fred that no two players swing their club in the same way. Each has their own approach and technique. However, they all follow the same five fundamentals and, when coaching an individual’s golf swing, it is these five fundamentals that underpins Fred’s approach:

Understanding the strike
Alignment
Grip
Weight shift and sequence
Impact

With the modern technology at Warwickshire Golf Sim he can show precise changes and developments in people’s techniques instantly which he has found helps his players interpret and improve quicker.
