Our Story
Discover how MW Golf evolved from a single coach to New Zealand’s leading team of golfing professionals. Discover our story and learn why our unified approach unlocks more opportunities and delivers better results for golfers of every level.
A Unified Vision, Led by Marcus Wheelhouse
The MW Golf story is one of continuous evolution — from Marcus Wheelhouse’s individual coaching practice to New Zealand’s most comprehensive golf development system. What started as exceptional one-on-one coaching has grown into something much more powerful: a team united by Wheelhouse 360.
Marcus’s journey from world number 1 amateur to touring professional to New Zealand’s top-ranked coach revealed a fundamental truth: great golf requires complete development. Not just fixing swing mechanics, but developing every area that influences performance.
This insight led to the creation of Wheelhouse 360 — our systematic approach that addresses The Wheelhouse (9 areas of the game) and the Performance System (5 key factors). What makes our story unique isn’t just Marcus’s success, but how we’ve built a team that shares this proven methodology.
Our vision was clear: create more opportunities for golfers to improve, with more coaches, more locations, and more ways to learn the game we all love.
Marcus Wheelhouse
Marcus’s work with tour professionals like Ryan Fox (2-time PGA Tour winner), Ben Campbell (LIV Golf), and Fiona Xu (LPGA) provided the testing ground for Wheelhouse 360. These elite partnerships proved that systematic development across all areas creates better, more consistent results than focusing on isolated problems.
But our vision extended beyond tour professionals. We believed every golfer — from complete beginners to weekend warriors —deserved access to the same systematic approach that develops tour players.
Building the Team
The transformation from individual practice to team approach happened naturally. As Wheelhouse 360 proved its effectiveness, other passionate coaches wanted to learn and contribute to the system. Today, our team of coaches doesn’t just use Wheelhouse 360—they help evolve it.
Fraser, Dominic, Oscar, Jimmy, and Will each bring unique expertise while sharing the same fundamental approach. This collaborative model ensures that whether you work with one coach or multiple team members, you benefit from our collective knowledge and experience.
We meet regularly to share insights, discuss player progress, and refine how Wheelhouse 360 is delivered across different coaching environments—from championship courses to cutting-edge simulators to online coaching worldwide.

What People Say About Us
Testimonials

Ryan Fox, Touring PGA Pro
I have been working with Marcus since 2012, starting on the PGA of Australasia and with Marcus’ help working my way onto the European Tour. His knowledge of the game of golf and the golf swing is second to none and it’s a great benefit to have a coach that has played tour level golf and understands it at the highest level.
EXCELLENT Based on 1 reviews Posted on S WilloughbyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've always wanted to try golf but was intimidated about where to start. A friend recommended MW Golf and I'm so glad they did! I booked my first lesson not knowing which coach to choose, but the team helped match me with a coach who was perfect for a nervous beginner like me. The facilities at Akarana Golf Club are really welcoming too. Everyone was so friendly and I never felt judged for being a complete novice. The team are incredibly patient and explain everything in simple terms without making me feel stupid for asking basic questions.
