Introduction
After over 37 years teaching golf, it still amazes me how many instructors make learning golf complicated! At Mike Riso Golf our mantra is: We make learning golf simple. Learning to swing correctly often becomes a struggle for people because most golfers try to figure out how to play without finding an experienced teaching professional. Our job is to make a very challenging game a lot easier! Much like an experienced lawyer, doctor, financial advisor, or mechanic, we have decades of experience to solve problems quickly and easily. Unfortunately, most 'do it yourselfers' simply don't I have the proper knowledge base. And self teaching online rarely solves the problem. If you're new to the game you'll want to learn the basics first. This includes, how to hold the club, aim and set up to the ball properly, and swing so your ball flies up in the air and goes straight. If you already play, I'll show you the fundamental keys that will fix whatever challenges you're facing. Any areas: putting, chipping, wedges, sand shots, drives, and on-course strategy all can show quick improvement. If you have golf club questions, I can help there too by sending you 3 FREE handouts. Look forward to hearing from you!

Mike is a Best in Class golf coach. Warm, patient, honest, and puts things in perspective so that you can fully grasp methods. Im an avid golfer and there’s more value in my time with Mike than playing 2-3 rounds of 18. Book a lesson and you’ll encounter things you never knew.
