"The lesson was quite helpful in highlighting some specific footwork issues I hadn't noticed before, though I think a bit more focus on shot consistency could be beneficial. Craig's approach feels steady and realistic, which I appreciate. Still, Iβm hopeful that future lessons might cover more about controlling placement, looking forward to trying another session with him.



30 years of experience, with the lowest 10 handicap in my tournament days and consistently scoring in the mid to low 80s. I spent 4 years playing on the TGAA - Mid Atlantic Tour, competing in 1 and 2 day money games tournaments up and down the east coast in the early 2005s as far down as Florida up to Washington DC . Now on July 28th 2024 I hit my first hole-in-one at Virginia Beach National 1st tee on the 9th holeβ135 yards with a one bounce 2 inches from the cup and then into the hole was an incredible experience so thankyou lord for prayers answered that day ππ». In 2023, I started teaching my son-in-law of 26yrs old and in just 6 months, helped him improve his game from shooting 128 down to breaking 90 ( Keep in mind only 10% of ALL golf players break 100 and 5% break 90 ). It's my goal to help ALL my students over 18yrs old get to one of that mile stone, so It's been an rewarding journey, and I'm excited to help others achieve similar success lord willing. ππ»
