"Hey, I have to say, Scott's lesson was quite helpful, especially focusing on positioning and ball placement in the kitchen. Though my ankle injury limited some movements, I still felt like I made good progress. I appreciate the detailed guidance on volleying too, and I’m hopeful to continue improving with practice. Still, I look forward to more focused work on shot placement in future lessons as well. Interestingly, Scott’s approach was straightforward but effective, making me feel more confident on the court. If you’re interested in refining your dink and soft game, I’d suggest giving him a try.

"Richard's first lesson was quite thorough, and I appreciated how he balanced covering all the rules with actually playing the ball around, which kept things engaging. Though, I think with a bit more movement and smoother hits, it could become even more effective. Still, it was a good experience and I’d consider trying Richard again for his knowledge and enthusiasm.

"Oh, the lesson was a pretty good intro to golf, honestly. I appreciated learning how to grip and swing properly, and it’s definitely a solid foundation. Though I need to practice more swings and hit more balls to solidify those new habits, I feel like this was a helpful starting point. Aron’s approach made things clear without overloading me, and I’m still hopeful about applying what I learned moving forward. If you’re looking for a straightforward introduction with someone who keeps it real, you might want to give Aron a shot.
