"Hey, I’d say Kevin’s lesson was quite helpful. I’m definitely seeing progress, especially with my serves, though I need to work more on my footwork and being ready to return the ball swiftly. Still, I feel optimistic about sharpening my skills with his guidance. Maybe more practice with dinking and ping-ponging the ball will help me get there.

"Matthew helped me with my grip, tempo, helping with taking me from really out to in to more of a shallow neutral swing path. He also helped to really fix my slice and focus on how my hands were finishing through impact. He also helped me gain 5-10 yards for my carry distance and steepened my swing to fit my body and play style. I now am a competitive golfer and can self diagnose my swing as I am on the course thanks to Matthews help and guidance. Started with a 17 handicap and dropped to a 7 handicap over a 8 month timeframe with Matt.
