"“I’ve been playing golf for over 10 years, and as an intermediate player, I was looking for a coach who could take my game to the next level. For the past three years, I’ve worked with Steven every week, either by traveling from Arizona for in-person lessons or through online coaching. His attention to detail, ability to identify small swing changes, and personalized approach have helped me continue improving year after year. No matter how I train with him, every lesson is productive and gives me something I can immediately take to the course. Steven is an outstanding coach, and I’d highly recommend him to golfers of any skill level.”
