Testimonial:

He quickly identified my mistakes & provided actionable drills. He's extremely knowledgeable & patient, making the lessons enjoyable. Highly recommended for golf lessons.

Testimonial:

I met Jeff 25 years ago and he stressed the importance of putting as the majority of our strokes are on the green. He taught me a putting tip that tour pro golfers now use. Jeff is ahead of his time, I am now one of the best putters.

Testimonial:

Excellent - worth every penny! First professional who took the time to explain what to correct, how it should look and feel, and a timeline of expected results. Can’t wait to get back out this spring, golf will be fun again! Thank you, Jeff

Testimonial:

AMAZED - Jeff was very professional and knowledgeable about golf compared to my past three instructors. He was able to fix my swing in just the one lesson, I will definitely be signing up for a second.

Testimonial:

Great experience! Very relaxed and took his time. The analysis was thoughtful and detailed, yet easy to understand. I left with a number of tangible things to work on at home. I plan on seeing Jeff again for more lessons... Thank you
