"The lesson with Dan was quite helpful, especially around my putting setup and stroke consistency, which I hadn't focused on much before. Still, I think a bit more emphasis on course strategy could make future lessons even more valuable, but overall, it's encouraging to see steady improvement and I might try another lesson down the road.

I've been playing golf for nearly 20 years, and truly believe it is a sport that should be played by as many people as possible. I specialize in bringing a fun, relaxed, and easy to understand style for people new to the game or wanting to learn more. I have coached both men and women, most recently being a high school golf coach in South Carolina working with many first time golfers. My affordable rates help make sure anyone can learn without being scared away by the price of individual lessons. For brand new / beginner golfers - my goal is to get you comfortable with not only your swing, but with understanding golf etiquette, rules, and good habits. For intermediate players who are already experienced, but are looking to improve their swing, short game, and overall score- I have a lot of experience with helping identify which parts of players' games can provide the biggest improvements and will prepare a plan to focus on those areas. For advanced/elite players looking to lower their scores even farther, I am probably not the man for the job. I recommend seeking lessons from a PGA Certified golf instructor in this situation.
"Worked very hard well with my son. Gave clear steps to follow to improve

Hi! I’m Coach Dre, and I specialize in helping players unlock their scoring potential while mastering the fundamentals of the game. Whether it’s putting points on the board, creating your own shot, or finishing strong under pressure, my coaching focuses on teaching players how to score efficiently in every situation—even off defensive stops, fast breaks, and tough matchups. My approach is personalized, engaging, and results-driven. Each lesson begins with a skills assessment to identify strengths and areas for improvement. From there, I design custom training sessions that mix technical drills, situational plays, and competitive game-like scenarios. Players not only improve their scoring mechanics—like shooting off the dribble, finishing at the rim, and creating space—but also learn how smart defense, awareness, and positioning can lead directly to points. I work with players of all ages and skill levels, helping beginners develop confidence and solid fundamentals, while advanced athletes refine their offensive arsenal and decision-making under pressure. Lessons are fun, challenging, and fast-paced—I emphasize learning through action, so every session feels like real-game experience while building habits that translate to lasting success on the court. Outside of basketball, I bring energy, patience, and a passion for mentorship. I love seeing players grow not just as athletes but as confident, strategic thinkers who understand the game on a deeper level. My goal is simple: to make you a more effective, versatile, and unstoppable scorer while teaching you the full game behind it. Let’s turn your scoring potential into consistent results!
"Coach Mathis really helped my son find his rhythm as a scorer. They worked on reading defenders, creating space, and staying locked in mentally. His points per game jumped after training with him, and he's more confident in taking the lead during games. Coach is knowledgeable, motivating, and from watching seems fun to train with. Some sessions seemed harder than others, and I see that made all the difference.

Helping students achieve better outcomes on the course is truly rewarding for me.
