    We never got together. He cancelled twice and I had to get help elsewhere - I have no idea what to rate his teaching.

    I’ve had lessons from several instructors over the years and Ryan truly has a gift !! I don’t say that lightly, he keeps it simple and always sends a checklist at the end of every session to my phone so the improvements we made during our session are repeatable and most importantly the way he teaches seamlessly transfers from the range to the tee

    I have had two lessons so far with Ryan. I like the fact that he isnt trying to change my natural swing he is giving tips on how to score with the swing I have. I would recommend giving him a shot if you want to play better golf.

    Ryan is a great teacher and makes golf easy to understand. He had me hitting my driver completely straight during my first lesson. Fun guy to hang around as well. I would definitely recommend.

    Ryan is great! He’ll will keep you in the same drill over and over until you get. One basic at a time until you’ve mastered it and he will stay with you until you get. No matter how long. He’s honestly the best coach I’ve seen in a long time.

    Ryan was a pleasure to work with on our first round of golf lessons. He was thorough, patient and very helpful in starting off a group of women just beginning to learn the basics needed to learn the game. Highly recommend him if you are just starting or looking to improve your game!

    Frequently asked questions

    I let the student take control of there own game. Years ago when I took my first lesson , my pro worked with me and didn't Change my natural swing , he torked it and changed some simple mechanics and I thrived from that point on! However I can teach anymore the textbook swing and mechanics but if you can name two golfers that swing exactly alike then that would be something !  I look at what you do well and build from that so you start with a strong foundation!

    I played in junior high, high school, and college  competitely, I passed my Players Abilty Test at Monroe CC with a 36 hole score of 70/74!! I've also worked with hundreds of students over the past 20 years. I've had students of all genders and handicaps ranging in age from   4 years old to 75 years old. I teach group sessions, family sessions, and  couples sessions! 

    Sense I'm Fully aware that not all teacher/students are a fit and not all coaches can teach So I'm the only coach who offers a money back guarantee!!I've been taught over the years many different ways and styles to play! I  teach everything from putting , to chipping to driving and I have a standard rate of 95 and hour, and I have a proven five lesson package for 400$  where I teach you everything about hitting your driver , crushing your fairway metals and long irons ,all the way to short iron and sand play , finally the most important part of golf , chipping and putting !

    I got started teaching because of my passion for golf and about 24 years ago after playing with a guy in Las Vegas and giving him some simple tips he offered to pay me , and wihin 6 months I knocked a full 10 strokes off his handicap!!! I also have had a club in my hand sense I could walk and I've also passed the PGA players ability test which is the test you take that begins the process of becoming a certified PGA teaching professional which is a 36 hole test, playing PGA rules in one day and shooting below a target number of 150 total strokes. My score was 74/70!  Nothing makes me happier than passing on my knowledge of this awesome but challenging game that we all love!!

    I've worked with kids as young as 3 and adults as old as 75 from beginners to scratch golfers. Everyone can use a coach sometimes ! I worked with numerous college players ,high school and middle school players, golfers of all ages and skill levels. I've personally coached over 25 students that have gone on to complete the requirements to become certified teaching professionals! 

    I just played in the Josh Bush foundation annual golf tourney which raises money for the local youth in Lexington NC and provides equipment for underprivileged kids! I met a lot of professional football players and coaches because I know Josh personallybut the best part was we raised money for the so many kids! 

    Look for someone who is patient and accommodating, there isn't one correct way to play golf , there are hundreds of ways to get you the results you are looking for!! The biggest piece of advice I can give anyone is make sure that you find a coach that is patient , a coach that you get along with , and one that can spot any faults in your swing by watching only a few swings. Also a coach needs to be super positive in the every aspect and approach because golf teaches so much more than just playing a game! It teaches honesty , discipline, and responsibility!

    What do I need the most help with ?  What is causing me to lose the most strokes while I'm playing a round? What are my ultimate goals and what are you " and "I" going to do to get you there?
