KEITH HUNTER
Keith Hunter is an athlete, entrepreneur, golf instructor, college football coach, and ex-professional football player—but not necessarily in that order. A native of Newark, NJ, Keith was a gifted high school football player. He was recruited by the University of Iowa, where he earned a BA in Communications. Keith went on to play with the NFL, signing on as a free agent for the Cleveland Browns.
On the field, Keith found metaphors for life that guided and inspired him off the field as well. When his career with the NFL came to a close, he applied his discipline and drive to other endeavors. After over 5 years of coaching college football, he played golf with his colleagues one day, and instantly fell in love with the sport.
Keith immersed himself in golf. But becoming a golf pro wasn’t enough… Keith saw gaps in the market, so he founded KGH Enterprises LLC. Through his corporation, he developed golf clinics, opened golf courses, and created a line of golf clothing. He began speaking publicly, and working with student athletes, golfers, and other entrepreneurs.
Keith—a father of six girls—knows first-hand how excelling in sports teaches valuable lessons, and leads to opportunities. He saw that young golfers, girls, and women were being overlooked. Not one to accept the status quo, he opened his clinics to students as young as four years old. And he developed a program, supported by corporate sponsorship, that enabled young girls to learn golf.
Keith is always looking for the next challenge, and is committed to inspiring and motivating others.
