"Oh, my last lesson with Alexis was quite useful, especially in learning three swings with my short irons, high shots, lower ones, and recovery. I focused on centering the ball on the face, a six-inch takeaway, and relaxing my hands. Still, I think a bit more work on driver consistency and short game would be helpful, but I’ve got some good foundation now. If you're interested, Alexis can definitely help build a broader skill set.
