About Me

jpswing 030Southern California has been my home since grade school.

My High School and College days were spent at Edison in Huntington Beach and Long Beach State, respectively. I played on the golf team and lettered at both schools. Back then I played with many fine local golfers that eventually became Pros; Randy Peterson (my brother), Mark O’Meara, Greg Frederick, John Burckle, Don Brown, Brad Greer, Mike Miles, and Dave Hobby, to name a few.

I am an Independent PGA Teaching Professional. Over the last fifteen years I have been teaching golf at Oak Creek  and Pelican Hill Golf Clubs. Playing in the local PGA events keeps me in good form.

My hobbies are reading, listening to music, biking to the beach and landscaping our yard. I love Italian food, hanging out at our house with my wife, Margo, and walking the dog in  the evening.
