Student Reviews


Tom L.
Excellent evaluation of what I needed to change. The drills during the lesson and drills for home will absolutely help my ball striking. Overall I am very optimistic that I will improve dramatically.


matt R.
Kevin was very friendly and knowledgeable. He explains exactly what you need to fix and how to go about fixing your problem. He doesnt over complicate explanations, and gives you drills to help with correcting your swing. I would recommend him to any golfer from beginners to professional he real knows how to instruct and communicate very effectively.


jamal H.
Kevin really knew his stuff and worked with me to improve my swing mechanics. He definitely took some strokes off my game in only 3 sessions. I definitely will come back


jonathan B.
Kevin is very thorough. He watches your technique and tweak it to help you improve your game. He uses videos to show your positioning to help correct your swing also. He is also a great person.


tricia K.
Kevin is phenomenal! The technology he uses to dissect your swing is cutting edge. I especially love the at-home exercises he shared to help me practice correct movements in my swing. Schedule an appointment today!


Kathleen P.
Kevin Ryan was extremely helpful!


David J.
Kevin is very knowledgeable and an excellent teacher. He is patient and doesn’t mind covering the same thing over for those who need extra learning. He provides videos of things to work on when you go home.

Charles M W.
Very detailed. Just what I needed


Jason R.
Kevin maintains good communication when scheduling, provides customized and easy to understand instruction, and already has me feeling confident in the advancement of my game. Looking forward to several more lessons!


Chris L.
My lesson with Kevin was the first golf lesson I’ve ever had. I can’t speak more highly of him. It is very obvious he knows what he’s talking about, and can very effectively show you through the necessary improvements based specifically off analysis of your swing. I’ve already planned additional lessons with Kevin and look forward to more improvements to my game. Highly recommend!


Terry M.
Kevin is an excellent instructor and helped me get back to playing good golf. Very satisfied with the lessons and have another this week


Albert G.
Kevin really understands the fundamentals/mechanics of the golf swing and does a fantastic job getting those ideas out to you through things like video analysis and drills for you to work on at home


Dorothy P.
Very friendly and patient. Clear instructions.


ChongMan C.
Kevin is an extremely patient instructor. In addition to his sharp eyes, he uses video analyses that illustrate the parts that the students need to work on. I have learned a lot with just one lesson. Highly recommended!


Zac R.
Kevin provided great instructions with at home and range drills to speed up my improvement. Fixed my over the top slice in the first lesson and fine tuned it in the next lessons. Then we worked on short game making pitching and chips easy. Finally did a quick adjustment to give me much better carry with the driver. Pricing is very reasonable and I got great results. Even my friends noticed in the improvements. Highly recommend Kevin to anyone in the area. I’ll probably continue to get tune up lessons here and there.


Richard L.
kevin helped me with my grip an it shows in my ball hitting


Jake P.
Kevin is a great teacher. Analyzes your swing with video and helps identify/fix your flaws. Shot my lowest round ever after working with Kevin and overall my game is much more consistent.


Gene W.
Where do I start. Kevin is Awesome at not only the knowing of the ins and outts of golf but teaching both aswell. When I came to him 12 lessons ago I thought 3 lessons and Im done. Well Ill tell ya you see so much improvement in your game after the 2nd and 3rd lesson that you realize and crave even more knowledge. The experience and teaching he shows is Grade A 1. I was roughly a triple boggie golfer around 115 to 120 for 18 holes and 55 to 60 for 9 holes. I noticed after around 3 to 5 lessons my score shaved about 7 to 10 stokes off past scores. By my 10th session I can confidently go out and shoot boggie golf 8 to 11 over. Ive now played 11 rounds this year so far. Im scoring truthfully at 40 to 47 on 36par and 85 to 95 on 72 par. My handicap is now 16.9 on a 72 par course 18 holes. I am beyond pleased w the results. And I know I will be back with Kevin for chipping and putting lessons. My new goal is no to shoot par. Thank you kevin for your time, understanding and patience. See ya soon

Deborah R.
Kevin is amazing! I’m not a great golfer but he is really changing my abilities-a miracle lol. He is a great people person and knows how to approach each client. My husband is also working with Kevin and he is a much more accomplished golfer, and Kevin is improving his game as well. Definitely worth it!


Dan J.
Kevin was very knowledgeable about the “whys” and “hows” of the golf swing,


Jake P.
Kevin is fantastic. I went for lessons last summer and made significant improvements to my game. Went back for additional lessons this Winter/spring and have taken another step forward and lowered my scores. He uses video and simple tools to highlight your swing flaws and then provides matching tips/drills to fix those flaws. His prices are very fair and provide much more bang for your buck compared to hitting endless buckets at the driving range with your old (incorrect) swing habits. Absolutely would recommend.


Gene W.
Absolutely changed my mistakes. path to ball and impact. Hole game is much better. Kevins a Great couch


Deborah R.
Kevin is the best! He is patient, approachable and very knowledgeable. I am a relatively new golfer and he was able to help me with just one lesson! I am so motivated to continue with my lessons and improve my game. My husband is a very experienced golfer and I wondered how it would work since we have such different skill levels. It was great !! My husband was very happy with his lesson and definitely felt Kevin was able to help him as well. I would strongly recommend Kevin!


Kevin S.
Extremely knowledgeable and breaks down parts of the swing into easy to understand components. Very patient and has vastly improved my game.


Karen N.
Kevin has helped me improve my swing significantly. He gave very helpful videos with drills to practice at home. He is very nice to work with. Would definitely recommend him!


Tom K.
I highly recommend Kevin for golf lessons for any level of golfer. Kevin is a great teacher with a thorough lesson plan, complete with home work. I am impressed with how much Ive learned after only 3 lessons & I am looking forward to further lessons to improve my game!


Gene W.
Didnt know what to expect being new but instructor Kevin wad absolutely attentive to what I was looking for. Right away w in minutes he addressed and correct 2 of my main flaws in stance and hip and shoulder rotation and direction.
Absolutely recommend Kevin to any level golfer. Soft spoken but direct to issue. I Wouldnt have it any other way. Ill be back for multiple sessions. Thanks again


Lane K.
Highly recommend! Want to learn proper golf mechanics to improve your game? Want to understand why elements of your swing create different results? Kevin is your guy! Kevins personalized approach utilizes technology to analyze your swing today and then he breaks down the movement of each area of your body to help you improve. Great teacher who understands how to communicate and create good habits. My swing felt stronger and more consistent in one session. Cant wait to go back!


Keith W.
So far Kevin has taken me from hitting a slice to now starting to draw the ball. He gives tips and homework to help you improve. Excited for the season to start.


Travis G.
Kevin does a great job of analyzing your swing and giving you a variety of pointers. He takes time with each aspect of your swing path and body movement. Additionally, he gives you a set of easy at-home drills to practice in between sessions. I would highly recommend to players at any skill level looking to improve their game


Mike K.
Very knowledgeable, breaks things down so even I can understand them


Kim R.
I purchased lessons for my husband. This place came highly recommended and I can see why. Instructor Kevin Ryan is the perfect person to teach anyone who is interested in golf lessons.


Don M.
Easy going demeanor, knowledgeable instructor who cares that Im improving, and a great value.


Terese M.
The people working there. The instructor. Easy to schedule dates and times.


Terese M.
Our instructor is very patient, knowledgeable, friendly. He abided by all the COVID rules. We started our grandson with him and now setting up lessons for ourselves.


Derek B.
Took three lessons with Kevin and he dramatically helped my iron game!


Chuck W.
In just my first two lessons with Kevin, I have been able to make minor adjustments to my swing that is leading to far less slices and miss hits. Kevin is able to make the difficult nuisances of a golf swing understandable and easier to replicate. I would definitely recommend Kevin to others in need of golf instruction.


Steven W.
Flexibility of lesson times. Kevin is very knowledgeable. Fixed most of my swing in just one lesson.


Tim S.
I had my first lesson with Kevin last night and I can already tell he is very different from other instructors I’ve had throughout the years. Most instructors can always tell what you are doing wrong, Kevin sees that as well, but where he is different is that he gives you ways to FEEL the correct mechanics of the golf swing. He doesn’t seem to offer quick fixes, which I appreciate. He shows you the fundamentals that will result in lasting changes....if you are willing to put in the work. I just finished the drills he gave me to do in between lessons and I can already feel a difference and see where my swing was off. Also, he is obviously passionate about what he does and wants to see you succeed; and while it’s early he genuinely seems like a good guy, which is important to me as it creates a relaxing atmosphere in which to learn. I’m excited to begin working with him. If you’re willing to work and learn give this guy a call.


Mark T.
Kevin has done a great job getting my swing on the right plane by using in person lessons and video drills and analysis. Problem is I am hitting the ball much further and straighter, LOL.Kevin is now doing couple lessons with me and my
wife who is just learning but already hitting it straight.


Mark T.
Kevin has done an excellent job breaking down my swing in terms i can understand. Although I do have a bad lower back, the drills he has provided allow me to continue my training at both home and the range with out discomfort.


Wiley F.
Got right to business fixing my swing. Gave me some good tips to generate rotation and get more consistent. Only had one lesson so far, but it was valuable


David G.
Focussed & Productive, yet Enjoyable & Relaxed; Confidence-Enhancing. Results not fully tested beyond some range and yard sessions before virus stopped all, but swing feels better, ball behaves better so far there when the swing mods taught are executed, Grooving new habits is not instant or easy tho. Potentials revealed so far are motivating for practice though and good practice is what itll take if Im not wrong. Fortunately either my swing did not need terribly drastic overhaul or he met me where I was to improve it from there.


paul S.
Worked with me to fix multiple issues in my swing. Love the technology approach he uses.


Shaun G.
Kevin is a great instructor. He had me striking the ball significantly better after one lesson, implementing the changes, and practicing the drills he recommended for me.


Carolyn L.
Kevin is very patient and informative. Takes time to be sure you are integrating information he gives you


Harold O.
It was easy and a very quick response.


Andrea P.
Easy to follow corrections, including video.


Michael A M.
Great golf teacher I am a senior an he stayed concernered about my physicality an if I didn’t quite understand something one way he found another until he was sure I understood it would recommend him to anyone with confidence he can surely teach


Erika M.
Kevin was professional and knowledgeable while maintaining a non-aggressive
and in-tune teaching style. I would recommend him to any age. I came into the
lesson today with only having watched a few how-to videos of golf. I felt the
session was productive and focused.


Michael A M.
2nd lesson even better than first Kevin is a great teacher makes it easy to learn if u don’t understand it one he finds another way or two to get the swing thought an feel across making me look forward to this coming season again am enjoy lessons an already seeing improvement


Bob O.
Kevin has done a very nice job of simplifying the learning process, and is always available with helpful tips if needed. Bob


Michael A M.
Kevin was great explained an showed by very good vidieos my swing before an then after part of lesson the change s that we started to implement would highly recommend as I am senior golfer an he was patient with my learning process an physical liabilities


Emmett B.
This was the first time I have ever taken golf lessons and Kevin made me feel very comfortable with the process. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I would recommend him for both beginners and advanced players


Natsumi Y.
He is very friendly! Thank you very much.


Geoffrey K.
Kevin is an excellent teacher. He is very hands on, it is a very interactive lesson. I came into the lesson after taking 2-3 years off of golf because I could not figure out how to get rid of my crazy hook. Within 2 lessons my hook was almost gone... it is amazing. To give even more context, I am in a golf simulator league this winter. I played my first 2 rounds before lessons and I shot a 100 and then a 91. I took my first lesson and then immediately played my third round and it was a 93. This is expected because some of the changes we made to my swing were significant and still were in the unnatural feeling phase. After my second lesson I immediately played my 4th round and I shot an 89. Again, I was still trying to adjust to and practice some of the big changes we had made. I played my 5th round before my 3rd lesson and shot a 75... A SEVENTY FIVE! Everything is starting to feel more natural, I can hit my woods now and my hybrids, and my irons have a subtly draw or are straight. This was after 2 lessons! I have had 3 lessons now and plan to continue working with Kevin for many more in hopes that I can continue to hit in the low 80s and 70s consistently... I cant wait to see what Kevin can do for my swing after 9 or 10 lessons.
He has brought the joy of the game back to me, I only wish I had began taking lesson from Kevin years ago.


Glenn S.
Kevin is very knowledgeable & a great Teacher. I learned more about the golf swing in one lesson than I could of ever figured out on my own.


Hongjie W.
Coach is nice and very helpful. will come back definitely.


Paullette P.
Very professional. Very patient. Would highly recommend, 5 star!


Karl W.
Good teacher, my swing has improved a lot.


Robert S.
Yesterday was my first lesson of 3. Kevin analyzed my swing from the start and quickly noticed some faults with my swing. One of the issues was me not turning shoulders and rotation of my hips. He started a drill with me that teaches me proper rotation which I noticed a big difference right away. Looking forward to the next lesson and cant wait to start dropping my scores. I love the game of golf and with Kevins teaching Im sure Ill love the game even more.


Lori F.
Kevin is a great instructor. It’s been about 5 weeks since my first lesson and I see much improvement in my game. Aside from being a great instructor, Kevin is very kind, patient and personable. I highly recommend him.


Chuck W.
Kevin is a very down to earth guy and explains everything very well. With 3 lessons I went from shooting mid 90s to mid to upper 80s. He works with your swing and gives you drills to work on between lessons. He also gave me a mini lesson on chipping and putting... hoping that will lower my score even more. Thanks Kevin!


Peter S.
Kevin has been very helpful. He recommended a completely new swing. It felt different but after persevering, my consistency has improved. I look forward to my next lessons with Kevin.


Andrea P.
Kevin suggests practical tweaks to improve my swing that are easy to practice outside of the lesson. The videos provided at the beginning were also very helpful!


Logan M.
Kevin was instantly able to find a bunch of flaws in my swing and start to come up with a plan on how to get it all working properly. He knows people learn different and is very accommodating to how the individual learns best.


Harold G.
Emphasis on proper mechanics. Expect game to improve significantly once incorporated into muscle memory.Especially appreciated videos provided for guidance after lessons


Todd V.
Kevin did a great job explaining what was wrong with my swing and showed me how to correct it. I highly recommend him to anyone needing help.


Joe P.
Kevin is an excellent teacher and instructor. He explains in a way thats easy to understand. After only one session, my swing feels much better and results are remarkably improved.


vincent P.
Easy to follow instructions


Richard A.
Kevin uses a computer generated photo display of the students golf swing. In the time it took to swing my 7 iron three time Kevin had identified a fault in my swing and provided the remedy which I will practice fervently until my next
lesson. By the way, he is a very nice fellow.


vincent P.
Kevin helps with the fundamentals n mechanics involved in my swing. Very easy to communicate back and forth with. Also provides lessons you can do at home to help you improve between lessons.


Brian V.
Had my first lesson and had a great experience. Kevin was great at pointing out areas in need of improvement and technique to improve my game. Still a long way to go but I am feeling confident in my coach and his ability to teach. Looking forward to additional sessions.


peter L.
Kevin does a great job explaining the golf swing, using videos, and drills to see the problems and help make the needed changes.


Kevin P.
Very knowledgable and easy going 1st lesson ready to srat my 2nd and 3rd for sure


Matt L.
Kevin is a fantastic teacher.


Tony P.
They work with you till you get it right.


Brandon L.
Patient, knowledgeable, informative and effective. After my first set of lessons with Kevin, I feel that I have been provided the tools to start me on my way to becoming a better golfer. I appreciate the way he explained everything in a language a novice golfer could comprehend. I also hire Kevin to provide lessons to my father, a left-handed golfer. He was able to help my father understand some of his ingrained mistakes and set him on the path to doing things the right way. The price was right and I greatly appreciated that Kevin did not watch the clock. It is a horrible feeling when you are finally getting the lesson and the instructor abruptly ends the lesson because time is up.
I am leaving a review right now, after my first 3 lessons. I anticipate providing more accolades after my next 3 lessons.


Trudi S.
i have not taken the lessons yet. but Kevin seems nice


Tim B.

Geno J.
His lessons were simple and easy to learn but made a big impact on my golf game


Tim b.
Great experience


Andy C.
Kevin worked with me step by step in 3 lessons to adjust my stance, grip, swing plane, and most importantly club face at impact. As a brand new golfer (<1 year), nothing feels better than to hit the ball so much cleaner and straighter. He makes sure you understand what youre doing and why youre doing it. Highly recommended.


Tom T.
I have only been to one class so far, but can tell you that I am very pleased. Kevin has shown himself to be very knowledgable and professional while making the whole experience relaxed and fun. Thanks Kevin!

I have been working with Kevin for a little over a year and I have lowered my handicap from an 8 to a 3. Kevins drills are easy to understand and he makes sure you understand the drill and what its purpose is. He made me feel comfortable and I would highly recommend Kevin. Hes a great instructor.


Darlene H.
I started lessons with Kevin about 2 months ago and I could not be happier with my improvement. Kevin is great to work with and I love the drills he gives me each week.You will love taking lessons with Kevin...... ⛳🏌️


Brian A.
Ken was great and very professional. He cared about what ultimately I wanted, and that was to improve my golf game. Ken was very passionate about making the game of golf as fun as it could be for me.


Sebastian P.
I started taking lessons from Kevin at the beginning of the season. What i enjoy about his teaching is that he pays maticulous attention to the way i learn. Thus not forcing unnecessary techniques that wont help. He works on every aspect taking slow or fast steps depending on how quick i learn. If youre ready to improve hes the coach. But dont be afraid or lazy, because then you wont enjoy his methods.


Kirk O.
Kevin has a great knowledge of the golf swing, and a wide array of drills that have helped to improve my game immensely. Thanks Kevin!


joe g.

Kevin has a great eye for the golf swing. He communicates what he wants you to do in a way that makes learning easy. His drills are very effective. I have gained 40 yards on my drives!!!!! And I hit the ball straighter!!!
