Butch Harmon is one of the most respected names in all of golf and one current PGA Tour player has given an insight into his brilliance.

Harmon is widely regarded as one of the best golf coaches of all time.

The 81-year-old worked with Tiger Woods during his hugely successful period in the 90s and early 2000s, while he also helped Phil Mickelson enjoy big success as well.

The star names don’t stop there with Harmon either, having worked with Dustin Johnson, Ernie Els and Fred Couples, to name but a few.

Of course, the mere mortal golfer is unlikely to ever get any sort of insight off Harmon given his stature in the game.

However, luckily for us, current PGA Tour player Michael Kim has revealed just what it’s like to actually have a lesson with Harmon.
