Introduction

INDOOR And OUTDOOR LESSONS. Former tournament player and owner of golf instruction business for 10 years. I've worked with adults, beginners, kids and seniors. I am a Leadbetter Certified Instructor and USGTF instructor and member of the International PGA. TPI Level 1 Certified. I believe cost is the #1 obstacle to improving at golf besides commitment so I price my services at an affordable rate. No two swings are the same and while I have studied and am knowledgeable in several different methods, the instruction I provide is completely based on the student's ability, comfort and flexibility. I use video and complete analysis of your swing. Contact me to start improving your game. Please note if you are more than 25 miles from central Long Island I most likely cannot help you unless you are willing to travel to me. But am happy to do an online lesson. Online lessons also available if you are out of the area.

John is AMAZING!! Exactly the instructor i have been searching for! I’ve taken lessons many times before with various pros (even TPI certified instructors) and i got more out of one 1 hour session than i did with others with multiple sessions. I will continue to be working with John to help improve my game across the board!

I found John to be very knowledgeable regarding the golf swing. He’s concise and cuts right to the core of the modern pro swing giving excellent guidance and drills to correct faults and to build swing changes that will produce improvement and lasting results. Looking forward to my next lesson.

John not only assisted me with improving my short game, which is what I originally made my lessons for, but he has also helped me improve my grip and full swing. I have added 10-15 yards on my drives. I hit the ball more consistently which took my slice away. My chipping 30 yards in has improved tremendously. I would not be shooting in the low 90’s, almost shooting 80’s, without John’s help. His prices are a lot more feasible compared to other golf instructors.

I’ve been to a few different instructors and John is by far the best. He’s very knowledgeable and communicates his lessons in a clear and understandable manner. One of the first to let me know I could text any questions I might have and he always responds. I highly recommend John.

My lesson with John was great. He corrected things in my swing that I would have never been able to correct by myself or on YouTube. His knowledge of the game of golf is incredible. His ability to explain the science behind the swing in simple terms was greatly appreciated. I will definitely be getting another lesson from John and I look forward to improving my golf game with his help.
