Joel loves seeing Players like yourself, experience vastly expanded golf self-knowledge, leading to each individual's continual long-term Golf...Success.
One Golf...Success Player says: I’ve learned a lot just simply watching Joel play with me. I am a retired businessman who never had much time for golf when I was working. Joel Suggs has helped me transform my Golf Game from novice to a weekly player who enjoys playing with a group of men. While I’m still a high-handicapper Joel has taught me how to think about my game and analyze my strengths and weaknesses objectively. Joel is not just a Swing Coach. He is a Golf Coach and I have enjoyed learning aspects of the game I had never heard from any other instructor. Joel’s lessons are tailored to my needs and are always fun. Through video analysis and solid instruction Joel has improved my full swing mechanics with driver and irons. We’ve done work on the greens improving the putting stroke and in reading greens. The pitch and chip game are so important, and Joel has given me great instruction on both the swing mechanics of these shots and the mental aspects of the short game. Joel has also been liberal with his time in using real Golf Course play to coach and teach the game. Thanks to Joel’s good coaching I have the tools and knowledge to continue improving my Golf Game through regular play and practice.
