Today I visited Dick's Sporting Goods at the Los Cerritos Center, and I had the privilege of…read moremeeting an exceptional young employee named Damien, who is only 17 years old. I have been in business for many years and have met thousands of people throughout my life, but every once in a while, you come across someone who leaves a lasting impression on your heart. Damien was one of those people. From the moment he greeted me, he treated me with kindness, respect, and genuine professionalism. Every word was spoken with courtesy: "Yes, sir," "Thank you, sir," and "It's a pleasure to help you, sir." His manners, patience, and willingness to assist were truly remarkable. As I spoke with him, I couldn't help but think back to my own teenage years. Damien reminded me of a time when respect, humility, and strong values were the foundation of a young person's character. Seeing such a respectful and hardworking young man today touched me deeply. In fact, I had tears in my eyes because it gave me hope and reassurance that there are still wonderful young people in this world. His parents deserve tremendous credit for raising such an outstanding young man, and Dick's Sporting Goods should be extremely proud to have Damien representing their company. He is a shining example of what customer service should be and what good character looks like. Damien, thank you for your kindness, your professionalism, and your respect. You made my shopping experience unforgettable. Young men like you are rare, and I hope your managers recognize what a valuable asset you are to their team. May God bless you and your future. Keep working hard, stay humble, and never change. The world needs more young people like you.

When I tried paying for my things the tags had different prices because they were on sale but the the guy charged me as regular price in some items and didn't honor the sale price tag that was advertised. Turns out the guy that was rude when I asked him for assistance.. was the supervisor at that place! To which I said, are you the supervisor and he responded with a yes, then I told him he needs to work on his customer service to which he responded in a sarcastic way and said, thank you, I appreciate it! BIG NO FOR ME AND IM NEVER RETURNING TO THIS BIG 5's again! I don't care if I have to make a drive out of Downey! I don't know if it was the lack of AC because they had no AC and it was super hot and humid in there. But I'm a paying customer and I need to be respected and appreciated for my business!

Highly recommend! I wasn't sure what to expect from just two lessons with Danny, but the results…read morehonestly exceeded my expectations. I went from thinking my swing was "fine" while struggling through terrible rounds, to actually feeling confident on the course--and even beating my friends now . Danny took the time to start with the fundamentals and rebuilt my swing the right way. He corrected my grip, stance, and overall swing mechanics, explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand and apply. In only two lessons, I learned the core skills for both my irons and driver, which completely changed my game. I'd say I went from beginner (borderline horrible!) to a solid intermediate in a very short time. I'm incredibly grateful for the instruction. I'll be practicing the drills Danny taught me and will definitely be back when I'm ready to take my game to the next level. If you're on the fence about golf lessons, take this as your sign to invest in them. Just two lessons gave me the fundamentals that will be the foundation of my game moving forward.

I was excited to try my new golf clubs that I recently received as a gift. I was taught by the people I came with. Provisions to basic fundamentals about etiquette when playing at a golf course. I felt comfortable because there was not alot of people that were hitting golf balls at the range at this particular location This place is affordable and has plenty of slots to practice your golf swing. Clean and secluded. Definitely coming back to practice. Bring your own beverages at this location, you will need it, this sport is exhausting lol. Nice ambiance and chill down here. The only thing I did not like is when the PA speaker told some kids to hurry up. I am learning, but I am pretty sure this was normal business. Hurry up and hit. Received 4 buckets in total

From the moment I arrived, the staff and even the people around were welcoming and friendly. They took the time to explain the process, which made getting started simple and stress-free. That kind of environment really helps when you're just trying to work on your game and build confidence. I started with a small bucket for $7, which was perfect for getting some swings in and dialing in my basics. By the time I finished, I enjoyed the experience so much that I ended up purchasing their value card. definitely worth it if you plan on coming back regularly. Overall, it's a great spot whether you're just starting out or looking to get consistent practice in. No pressure, good vibes, and a solid place to improve your skills.

We really liked this Big 5 store in Lakewood. Parking is so easy in the large lot, it is part of a…read morestrip mall. I was on a mission, my grandson has lost his noise cancelling headphones now 3 times and I have had to replace them 3 times. He goes to a lot of concerts and he knows, your headphones are on your head or in the car, do not just leave them lying around. So, when he did it again, I told him his mom was going to have to replace them as his behavior shows a lack of responsibility for items that he is tasked with caring for. Anyway, I saw this Big 5 on the way to the taking him to the circus so I caved and pulled over. We went in and the cashier was very nice. She was not sure where the headphones were, so she asked a salesperson walking the store. He knew right away and showed me where they were and was able to tell me a little about the selection. I mean, they go from cheap to our you kidding me prices. I found the perfect pair made by Razor and went to the cashier. On my way there, I saw a lot of cool stuff had I been shopping. I told the cashier I was concerned with fit so had all intention of paying for them, opening them right there and trying them on my super sensitive grandson's head. She was fine with that and was going to just let me get another pair or give me my money back if we could not find a great fit. These were perfect. She was happy, we were happy. It all worked out. So, I do like this Big 5 very much. And as to the grandson if he loses these, he will be digging ditches to learn the value of money. Have a great week.
