Working with Justin has been a game changer for my golf game! He’s incredibly knowledgeable and has a real gift for teaching in a way that’s clear, approachable, and motivating. What’s stood out to me from the very beginning is how patient he is. No matter where I’m at that day (whether I’m hitting well or struggling with the basics) he meets me where I am, breaks things down step by step, and makes even the most technical adjustments feel manageable. I’ve made real, noticeable progress since starting lessons with him. My swing feels more controlled, my ball striking is more consistent, and I actually understand what I’m doing instead of just guessing. Justin explains not just the “what” but the “why,” which has helped me build a much stronger foundation and given me the confidence to keep improving on my own between sessions. Beyond his technical expertise, Justin genuinely cares about his students. He creates an environment where it’s okay to make mistakes and learn through them, which makes the entire process enjoyable rather than intimidating. I actually look forward to every lesson because I know I’ll walk away with something that makes me better. If you’re serious about improving your game, I can’t recommend Justin highly enough!!!

The lesson with Justin was pretty helpful and really clarified some key swing issues I hadn’t noticed before. Though I still have a way to go, more progress would be great, and I’m optimistic about continuing. Hope to keep building on that.

Justin was great! He's very kind and patient, but still willing to jump in and help me with my swing

Cayden

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 20•

Cayden loved working with me! He started without knowing anything about the game and in 20 lessons he was trying out for the high school golf team! He was consistently improving each time and getting birdies and pars more and more often. The most important part is he had fun and couldn’t wait to get to the course again each time

John

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 10•

John had golf previously but needed help with his swing. In 10 lessons John began to hit the ball much straighter, further and more consistent! John had found a new love for the game and continued to play often

Mike

Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 2•

Mike struggled with his driver but ultimately all it came down to was he wasn’t swinging up on the ball. His angle of attack was negative and was causing a low slice and he would occasionally over correct and hit a hook. After a few drills, Mike and I dialed in his new driver after getting him to hit up on the ball!

How it works

Beginner training plan

Your first lessonOur first lesson is all about getting to know your game. We’ll start with a full evaluation of your swing, short game, and putting to identify strengths and areas for improvement. From there, we’ll go over the core fundamentals grip, stance, posture, and alignment to make sure you have a strong foundation to build on. By the end of this session, we’ll set clear goals and create a personalized improvement plan tailored to your game.

Lesson 11+Once the fundamentals and skills are in place, our focus shifts to refining your game and ensuring long-term progress. We’ll polish swing mechanics, sharpen your short game, and help you build a reliable pre-shot routine that works under pressure. Together, we’ll create a practice plan that you can follow on your own, along with ways to track your performance through stats like fairways hit, greens in regulation, and putting averages. From here, we’ll also introduce advanced techniques such as controlling trajectory, specialty shots, and adapting your game to different course conditions.

Lesson 4-10Over the next several lessons, we’ll dive deeper into each part of the game while gradually applying what you’ve learned to real on-course situations. We’ll progress through the full swing with irons, hybrids, and the driver, teaching you how to control ball flight and shape shots. On the short game side, we’ll work on wedge play, distance control, bunker shots, and more advanced putting skills like green reading and managing speed. As your mechanics improve, we’ll also focus on course management — learning how to make smart decisions, select the right clubs, and play to your strengths. These lessons will include on-course instruction where you’ll practice strategy, routines, and mental game techniques that translate directly into lower scores.

Lesson 2-3In the next two sessions, we’ll begin developing consistency in your swing and short game. We’ll focus on the basics of balance, rhythm, and making solid contact so you can start hitting the ball more consistently. At the same time, we’ll introduce short game fundamentals, starting with putting stroke mechanics and simple chipping techniques. These lessons are designed to help you establish confidence in your setup and develop a repeatable motion that you can trust on the course.

Youth players

Working with kidsWhen teaching kids, I focus on making the game fun, engaging, and easy to understand. Lessons are built around simple visuals and games that keep them moving and excited, like target contests, chipping challenges, and putting games. Instead of overwhelming them with technical details, I use kid-friendly cues such as “shake hands with the club” or “finish like a superhero” to help them build good habits naturally. Lessons are broken into short, active segments so attention stays high, and success is celebrated at every step to build confidence. My goal is always to make golf enjoyable first, so young players develop skills while also growing a lifelong love for the game.

Working with teenagersWhen working with teenagers, I focus on building solid fundamentals while also keeping lessons engaging and goal-oriented. Teens are ready to learn more about swing mechanics, course strategy, and the mental side of golf, but they also improve best when the learning feels fun and motivating. I use a mix of technical coaching, competitive games, and on-course challenges to help them grow both their skills and confidence. Whether they’re just starting out, playing recreationally, or preparing for high school and competitive golf, I create a supportive environment that pushes them to improve while still enjoying the process.
