ABOUT BEGOLF

How BEGOLF was born.
Co-Founders Ben Bockin and Chad Elledge first met at Meadowbrook Country Club in 2013, where a shared passion for golf, learning, and personal growth quickly turned into a lasting friendship. As they continued crossing paths at coaching seminars and education events, they discovered that their teaching philosophies were closely aligned—centered not on the traditional “find faults and prescribe fixes” model, but on helping golfers learn in a clearer, more empowering way.
The Early Years.
After more than 20 combined years of teaching experience at Western Country Club and Meadowbrook Country Club, Ben and Chad launched their own coaching program in 2016. What began in a small space inside Ben’s father-in-law’s business, EW Kitchens, quickly grew into something much bigger. In 2018, they opened The Golf Leadership Academy in Farmington Hills, Michigan, with a mission to develop leadership skills in children through group golf coaching.
Refining and rebranding.
When COVID disrupted those plans in 2020, they adapted by moving to a smaller facility in Novi and refining their coaching process even further. That continued evolution led to the creation of BE Golf—named for Bockin/Elledge Golf—a coaching program built from their experience and designed to help beginners and everyday golfers gain clarity, comfort, and confidence in the simplest way possible.
