Private Golf Lessons & Coaches in Woodland, CA

Hi, I'm Bryan! I've been golfing since I was 8/9 years old. I’ve played junior golf and high school golf. I enjoy understanding and breaking down the swing mechanics. My aim is to help you develop a consistent swing and enjoy the game more. I want to teach you how to create habits that will lower your scores and eventually lower your handicap. I can put you on a launch monitor during the lessons and I will cover your range balls. If you are intermediate or advanced, we can work for advanced skills. Let's work together to improve your skills on the course!

"Bryan's lesson was quite helpful, especially since he made my daughter feel comfortable and confident. She was quite relaxed and seemed eager to keep practicing. Though we still need to work on her swing and stand, her comfort level definitely improved. I think with consistent effort, we can build on this foundation. Still, I appreciate the approachable way Bryan delivers feedback, making it easier to focus on small adjustments. If you're looking for a steady, straightforward lesson that prioritizes comfort and progress, Bryan is worth considering.

**GREAT STUDENTS MAKE GREAT COACHES** For the past 20 years, I have been coaching and instructing many of the top golfers in Solano County. I firmly believe that "great players make great coaches." Here are some of my esteemed references: Aaron Beverly: Aaron has competed on the PGA, APGA, and Canadian Tours. During his time at Sac State, he broke numerous records and has won on the APGA Tour. He holds several course records, including a 59 at Rancho Murieta. Easton Hether: Class of 2026 at Cal State East Bay, Easton has already secured first-place finishes in tournaments and was named the 2023 Conference Freshman of the Year; 2025 CSEB Athlete of the Year; 2026 Career Athlete Award Anthony Del Dotto: A Class A PGA Professional and graduate of PGA/PGM New Mexico State, where he was a Jones Cup Champion. Mark Mills: Operations Manager at Jelly Belly. Mark improved from shooting over 100 to breaking 90 in just months through dedication to my 'Five Keys Method.' Although I now coach part-time, I have spent the past 20 years coaching and instructing for The City of Fairfield, Holy Spirit Middle School, and most recently, the Vacaville High Bulldogs. More than 10 of my students have gone on to play at the college level. But one of my proudest accomplishments is every junior player I have coached that went on to play in high school made their varsity squad as freshmen. Throughout these two decades, I have developed "The Five Keys" method of rapid learning. While I have specialized in instructing juniors with aspirations to play at the highest level, this method is designed for players who cannot dedicate hours each day to practice. The Five Keys Method focuses on accelerating progress without requiring extensive practice time. The Five Keys has consistently proven its effectiveness over the years, and I take great satisfaction in helping golfers achieve their personal goals, whatever they may be.
