Honestly, I thought the lesson with Gary was quite helpful, especially since we focused on some key fundamentals that I'll need to keep practicing. The class had a really nice atmosphere, and it was good to work through my swing in a calm setting. Though I still have some work to do on consistency, I feel more confident about my approach now. If you’re interested in a steady, no-pressure lesson to get your golf fundamentals straight, Gary’s worth a try.

Nice guy Good pointers Helped me with my slice

Gary was upfront and personal, with proven technique. He helped me fix my slice and driving distance and improve my chipping. I'm trying to get out and use the method he tought me and have more fun.

Fixed slice with mid irons, improved driving accuracy.
