    John is a great teacher! He is encouraging and expresses what I am doing right and what I need to work on in a very positive way. Also, he is flexible with scheduling which is important to me as my work schedule can change suddenly. Speaking of work, he has an indoor air conditioned teaching facility that allows me to have a mid morning lesson and go directly back to work. I highly recommend John and the Roving Golf Academy.

    John is very easy to communicate with, very flexible with scheduling and is very adept at quickly assessing a golf swing.
    John keeps the lessons active with focus on 1-2 swing thoughts and 2-3 drills/solutions.
    John’s approach is rock solid and I am looking coward to my sessions.

    Frequently asked questions

    Improving the golf swing starts from the start.  If the set-up is improved, the backswing will be easier to improve and if the backswing improves, the top of the swing will improve.

    Many instructors can see that an adjustment needs to be made.  The key to great instruction is knowing how to relate it to the student so that they can do it.  Knowing how long to work on an swing issue and what cues and drills will alllow for it is what better instructors know.  

    I feel what separates me from other instructors is that I can see the end goal from the start.  I can, step by step, walk golfers through the process so that they know what to expect.

    * GolfTEC Coach of the year

    The pricing depends on the package.  I typically offer strictly packages of lessons to build consistency step by step.

    I started by working my way through the Golf Academy of America.  I graduated Valedictorian. 

    I have worked with all types of students:

    *beginners

    *juniors

    *high handicappers

    *professional athletes

    *mini-tour players

    A student who shoots a career-low round is always a highlight. I recently had a student who got a hole-in-one after our first lesson. 

    I have had over 700 students who have shot their career-low round after lessons with me.

    Experience is critical in golf instruction.  Many people think they know the golf swing, but the finer points of communication, etc. are much improved through experience.
