VJ Trolio began instructing and coaching in 1999. He became a PGA member in May of 2007 and currently serves as the Director of Instruction at Frederica Golf Club in St. Simons, GA. Trolio served as Director of Instruction at Old Waverly Golf Club in West Point, MS from 2000-2024. Uniquely, Trolio was the coach of four players from a junior golf level to major tours. Matt Fast (Web.com), Chad Ramey (Web.com), Jonathan Randolph (PGA Tour), and Ally McDonald (LPGA Tour) trusted V.J. as junior golfers, collegiate golfers, and professional golfers. It became evident that it was not Trolio’s great coaching or instructional insights that made the biggest differences. The profound difference in players that succeed to elite levels comes from the culture they grow up in. Coaching and instruction are only one component of world class performances. A knowledgeable parent as a primary guide is equal to any coach or instructor. Trolio understands this fact on many levels. As a coach he has lived it and as parents he and wife havelived it.

"V.J. is one of the world's foremost experts on the long term development of junior golfers. ONLY ONE SHOT provides a roadmap for optimizing a junior golfers' performance. I think this is a must read for junior golfers and their parents." — MARK BLACKBURN, Top 100 Instructor in America Golf Magazine, Golf Digest Top 50 Instructor in America, Golf Digest Top 40 instructor under the age of 40, PGA Tour Coach."Parenting is hard.
