Riley’s approach is to help players learn the feel of their natural golf swing. Riley helps players truly understand the cause and effects of the golf swing that enhance ball contact and ball flight. Riley emphasizes an even blend of feel and technique, without creating information overload.

"I am a 15 handicap, twice a week golfer. I also spend at least 2 days a week at the range. A few weeks ago, I was watching Riley give lessons to a bunch of kids and they all seemed to swing better better than I do. We struck up a conversation and he really seemed to know what he was talking about, so right then and there, when he finished with the kids, I took my first lesson. He straightened out my weight shift and I was immediately a better golfer. Today, I took my second lesson. Now, I have taken many golf lessons in my life and seen some good and not so good results. Today, working with a new forward press and wrist cock position at address, I was hitting the ball 10 to 15 yards further with EVERY club! Yes, Every club!! This guy knows his stuff!!
