"Joshua’s a great instructor who excels at simplifying concepts so you can understand + implement in real time as part of your lesson

Golf humbled me for years before it rewarded me. I spent over two decades playing and competing at the Mini-Tour level, grinding through the same frustrations that every serious golfer knows — working hard, doing everything you think is right, and still not getting the results you’re after. What eventually changed things wasn’t talent. It was finally understanding why the swing works the way it does. The mechanics, the cause and effect, the things that nobody explained clearly until I dug deep enough to figure them out myself. That took years. A lot of them. That’s exactly why I started coaching. I didn’t want my students to spend years piecing it together on their own. Everything I learned the hard way — I put it straight into the lesson. Over 2,000 lessons in, my approach is built on one thing: giving you a clear, honest picture of your game. I use high-speed camera technology so you can see your own swing on screen and understand exactly what’s happening — no vague feelings, no guesswork. Just real information you can actually work with. I coach in English, Mandarin, and Burmese, and I take pride in making sure every student — regardless of background — walks away with full clarity and real confidence in their next step.

"Best coach i’ve ever worked with, super patient and a lot of attention to detail. Came prepared with his tools and started from the base of exploring my swing and then fixing it.

It was a pretty good lesson because Alan gave me tips and things to look out for to develop an even better swing in the future. Overall, I left me feeling more confident about my iron shots.

Benjamin Tibbs is a results-driven golf coach with over 25 years of experience in the game, dedicated to helping golfers unlock real, lasting improvement while keeping the game enjoyable and sustainable. With a foundation rooted in Junior PGA competition, Benjamin brings both the mindset of a player and the precision of a coach—understanding not only what to change, but how to build the confidence to execute it under pressure. Benjamin coached at GOLFTEC (Irvine, CA), where his instruction emphasized measurable improvement through modern golf performance systems—combining structured lesson plans with technology-supported feedback such as high-speed video analysis, 3D motion capture, and launch monitor ball-flight data. This data-driven approach helps golfers move beyond guesswork, turning “feel” into “real” and creating a clear roadmap for progress. In addition to his coaching background, Benjamin is a certified Stack & Tilt Network instructor, trained in a complete swing system designed around consistent fundamentals and a shared language between golfer and coach. Stack & Tilt focuses on building predictable contact, controlling low point, and creating a repeatable motion that holds up across clubs and playing conditions—making it especially effective for golfers who want consistency rather than “quick fixes.” Benjamin’s coaching style is direct, structured, and highly personalized. Every student receives a roadmap tailored to their body type, athletic profile, and goals—whether the focus is breaking 100, building a reliable draw, increasing driver distance, sharpening wedge play, or lowering handicap through better ball striking. At the core of Benjamin’s philosophy is a simple belief: great golf is built, not found. He specializes in helping golfers replace inconsistency with clarity—so they leave each session knowing exactly what to practice, why it matters, and how it translates to the course.

"I started golfing 6 months ago and had gone through multiple golf instructors from the local golf course at Oak Creek to PGA Superstore and more without able to get concrete feedback and analysis from my lessons. After hearing about Golftec from a friend and reading some reviews, I decided to go in for a swing analysis with Ben Tibbs. I immediately saw the value and benefit of the technology they use showing you not only what you're doing right or wrong but also what the pros are doing right. I immediately signed up for a 6 month lesson plan with Ben. In less than 10 lessons with Ben (one of which was a putting lesson), I have gone from the plagued "out to in" swing path to a consistent and more confident "in to out" swing path; allowing me to finally draw the ball! The biggest benefit above hitting the ball better and farther is having a more effortless and easy on my body swing (and less frustrating). People spend a lot of money on golf equipment but if you really want to play this game long term, invest in a coach. To think even Tiger, Kobe, Jordan, and Serena had coaches at the peak of careers, we can definitely use a coach to accelerate us on the learning curve. I appreciate Golftec because unlike just taking lessons on a range, you have video feedback, and detailed analysis/breakdown of what's working and not working in YOUR own swing. Not to mention it's at a fraction of the price of range instructors. Ben has been an amazing instructor. He's very experienced, knowledgeable, and patient; three traits needed for a great coach. He's very methodical in his approach by teaching you sequentially different ways to feel each aspect (position) of your swing. Don't go in thinking you can "fix" your swing in one day or week because there are a total of 10 positions making up your swing. Ben expertly broke it down so well that I now have a real playable golf swing!
