Golf Knack Introduces Key Team Members


(WILSON, WY)
– Golf Knack, golf’s elite hub for the everyday player, introduces four key members of its team: Andrew Knack is the owner and a passionate golfer with influence on club design; Todd Kolb is a PGA Teaching Professional who provides product instruction, coaching tips, and reviews on all Golf Knack products; Bobby Wilson is a long drive champion and power/swing coach who provides instructional content exclusive to Golf Knack; and John Summer is an Emmy Award winning broadcaster who is a spokesman for Golf Knack products.

“When launching Golf Knack this past year, we set out with a goal to make the game of golf more enjoyable for everyone,” said Andrew Knack, Golf Knack founder. “In order to reach this goal, we knew we needed to provide skillset learning, developmental training and golf clubs that are easy for everyday golfers to use. We put together a group of talented golf industry professionals that takes this goal seriously and we are thrilled to have them on our team.”

Todd Kolb

With more than 25 years of teaching experience working with beginners to touring professionals around the country, PGA Teaching Professional Todd Kolb is recognized as one of the top instructors in the upper Midwest. He is one of a handful of instructors who have been “certified” by the PGA of America in golf instruction and is the Director of Instruction for USGolfTV and the Sanford Power Golf Academy. In addition to receiving this honor, he has also received golf biomechanics accreditations from the Titleist Performance Institute and leading bio mechanist, Dr. Young-Hoo Kwon. In 2008, Todd was awarded the highest honor from his fellow peers by being named Minnesota PGA Teacher of the Year. He received similar honors in 2010 and 2015 when the PGA Dakota Chapter named him Teacher of the Year.

John Summer

John Summer is an Emmy Award winning broadcaster who has professional expertise in business, finance and marketing. John has owned multiple businesses and publishing entities, partnered in investment management and venture capital and served on many boards and non-profits. When he has time, he enjoys moving the golf ball around and researching ways to improve his results. John and his family call San Luis Obispo, California home.

Bobby Wilson

Bobby Wilson played on the Baylor University Golf Team, and he held conditional PGA Tour status for two years in the early 1980s; however, once he got involved in long drive competition he realized that he had found his niche. In his first year in long drive, Southlake, Texas native Wilson took 4th Place at the U.S. National Long Drive Championships and over the course of his long and successful career in long drive he has captured five world titles; including, two championships in the Seniors Division, one Super Senior title and two Grand Champions titles. Bobby Wilson is renowned for both his exhibitions as well as his golf instruction. He has produced a number of instructional videos, and he currently operates Bobby Wilson’s Power Academy in Little Rock, Arkansas. 

Andrew Knack

From an early age (literally since he could walk), Andrew started playing golf with his Grandfather. After playing golf for both his high school and college golf teams, Andrew was able to take his passion for the game a step further than your average enthusiast. Throughout the years, while playing frequently with both scratch golfers in tournaments and 25 handicappers on the weekend, one thing became very apparent. He noticed that the great players were able to make good use of the brand name equipment, while the average golfer couldn’t benefit as much from them. He knew that for the big brands to sell their clubs, they needed elite PGA tour players to play with their clubs - which ultimately meant - designing clubs FOR those PRO players, and not the amateur. So, he took what he knew of the game and applied it to the development of clubs for the amateur golfer. He launched Golf Knack in 2020 to provide everyday golfers with a portal to find clubs and instruction designed exclusively for them.
