Jim does a great job passing on his knowledge of the golf swing through watching and analyzing! He does not overwhelm you with a huge list of adjustments. Works on minor changes until you are ready to move to the next step. His laid back and easy going demeanor makes it easy to not get frustrated or discouraged. I would recommend working with Jim to anyone looking to improve or begin their golfing journey!
