I watched 1,374 (or so it seems) YouTube videos and I still couldn't hit the driver straight, but after my first lesson with Fred, I now get it and got it! Yah more practice is required but I now know how to fix it as the ebb and flow of my skill narrows into solid muscle memory. As for my lovely wife, she went from playing a slicing croquet game to actually hitting golf balls straight and with some distance. She's happy, I'm happy, the folks in the adjoining fairway are happy (Fouuurrr!). Now I'm trying to get my son to take a some lessons.

"Working with Coach Henrik has completely changed my golf game and my confidence on the course. So…read moreright off the bat I told him I'm basically 60yrs old and I don't want to change my swing completely that will take years to adjust to. I said I want to score better. Henrik said "Short Game" and off we went. His ability to change my chipping and pitching mechanics with easy-to-understand adjustments which helped me improve my game. It was never overwhelming. I've always been around a 12-15 handicap player. Since starting lessons I've seen major improvement in my consistency, ball striking, and overall course management. I'm playing the best golf of my life here at the age of 62. My handicap is lowest it's ever been at an 8...

I didn't feel welcomed when I arrived or excited about golf by the time if left in any way. I didn't love being on camera the whole time, especially when the video was not really used for the coaching feedback. The whole experience could have been better with just some minor tweaks. Made me think I should just stick with YouTube to learn the game. Probably better for an intermediate or serious golfer with a mission to improve a specific aspect of their form.

I grew up playing competitive golf in high school and college, but after years away from the game due to back issues, I found myself struggling with bad habits and an inconsistent swing. That's when I came across Max and decided to give Swingworx a shot. From the very first swing analysis session, I knew I was in the right place. Max is incredibly knowledgeable and not just about golf mechanics but also the physics behind the swing. He has a great way of breaking things down in a way that actually makes sense, helping you understand why something is or isn't working. His setup is top-tier: a private, well-equipped studio with cutting-edge technology, video analysis, and clear takeaways after every session. Max also sends over swing videos and key points to work on between sessions, which has been a game-changer for my progress. I'm only halfway through my package and already seeing a dramatic improvement in my ball striking and flight path. For the first time in years, I'm enjoying the game again and looking forward to playing with confidence. If you've ever considered lessons--whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player--this is the place. Max and Swingworx are the real deal. Highly recommend

Soft but firm, not like the old hard mats that felt like you were hitting off concrete and damaging your clubs. 5. Island Greens - so nice! These targets are priceless and make the range attractive. 6. Two putting greens - 1 is synthetic - take your pick. 7. A sand bunker practice area with real sand, not dirt! 8. Lighted at night to accommodate anyone's schedule. 9. A Golf Mart is on the premises, how convenient. You can demo clubs on a real range and not a simulator. Plus great customer service! 10.
