Eric Parr, PGA
Director of Golf UNM Golf Courses
I started playing golf at the age of 8, tagging along with my dad to the golf course. It was not until High School that I took a more serious approach to golf. In college, at UNM, I discovered that golf was not just a hobby but a passion. After graduating from UNM with my BS in Geography I joined the PGA PGM program. As a teacher I strive to keep a fun, relaxed atmosphere and work with students to teach the laws, principles and preferences of the golf swing. I like to facilitate knowledge by understanding ball flight. I enjoy working with all talents, especially beginners and those who are looking to improve their game.
My motto “Rule 35: Have Fun.”
