I met Erik on the golf course at Golf Club of Rancho California in Murrieta and we hit it off right away. We both went out as singles early in the morning so this wasn’t a lesson, but fortunately for me, it basically turned into a free one. He turned into a friend immediately. He is really approachable and friendly!
It was very impressive to watch him play, and more impressive how quickly he was able to help me out. He was hesitant to ask me if I wanted any advice because he didn’t want to be rude, but i am always willing to take advice from a 4 handicap so I asked him to give me whatever he had. I shot a 55 on the front 9, and a 44 on the back 9, thanks to his advice. He gave me a couple swing thoughts to work with and they obviously helped a lot. 10 out of 10 recommend!

Obviously we share a last name, Erik is my brother but he has helped me grow in this game a lot thanks to his simple approach. He watches you swing 5-10 times and can figure out what you need to do to get better. Also, being his brother, I am aloud to say this but he can talk to a wall. He gets along and makes friends with anyone he meets.

Erik has turned into one of my best friends. I am a lefty and i wasn’t sure if he was going to be able to diagnose my swing since he is a righty. His whole game plan is around finding the swing thought that works for you. I didn’t realize how much one swing thought could change your game.

Erik’s a really nice guy. He helped a lot and really hits on finding the right swing thought. It also seems like the guy knows everything about sports. We have talked football, baseball, golf… and he knows a lot about all the above. Very easy to talk to and learn from.

I am the first to admit, I suck at golf. But Erik was so patient and gave me a lot of good things to work on after our first lesson. He was also just so fun to be around. I look forward to my next lesson with him to show him the progress I have made with his tips.
