"Sam's analysis was superb. He helped break down my faults in such a simple and understandable way. I now feel like I've got the best possible plan going forward, with easy-to-remember drills and swing feelings that I can take straight onto the course. I'd highly recommend Sam to anyone looking to improve their golf game!"
"Sam's coaching skills are excellent, and the use of technology and the Skillest follow up really helps when it comes to remembering everything that was said and taking the info to the range to practise. Highly recommend Sam if you are keen to improve any area of your golf at whatever level."
"After my first in-person lesson with Sam, I was very impressed how quickly he identified some small issues in my swing and was able to provide simple but very effective training drills to resolve. Very approachable and great detail provided with the analysis. Top coach."
"Great lesson with Sam. After continuously struggling with chunking chip shots Sam was able to identify my mistakes early and provided me with numerous drills to practice. These have helped me to remain stable during shots, square up my stance and stop cutting across the ball — improving my overall strike and consistency around the greens."
"Another excellent lesson. Sam has a very educated eye for the golf swing. I am very impressed with the videos and graphics that I can study in the days and weeks after the lesson. A lesson without the videos would only be 20% as effective in my view!"
"I had lost a lot of speed and distance with driver. Sam spotted the problem instantly and in the half hour lesson I gained 10mph back. Thanks Sam!"
