I had one of the most disappointing experiences at GolfTec Clayton today and I feel compelled to…read moreshare it. I called a week in advance to book a simulator rental for an hour, which I was told would cost $50. That seemed reasonable, so I went ahead. When I arrived, there was nobody at the front desk and no one available to help me set things up. After wandering around, I finally asked one of the instructors in another bay if he could assist. He was completely unhelpful, told me he didn't know how to adjust the simulator settings properly, and basically just shrugged off my requests. To make matters worse, the simulator itself was glitchy and wasn't recording my yardages accurately. I specifically needed it set up for a left-handed player, and he just refused to help or even try to figure it out. An hour went by with barely any assistance, and then he tried to charge me $100 instead of the $50 I was originally quoted, claiming it was actually $50 for just 30 minutes. Overall, it was a terrible experience. The staff was unprofessional and unhelpful, and the equipment didn't even work properly. I definitely won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.

I have never golfed a day in my life. I had my first "intake" evaluation a couple weeks ago and it…read morewas pretty fun. Mike is a good teacher and likes to try to make the learning understandable by comparing it to something you already know about. For me it's dance, which really is nothing like golf, but at least understanding that I've been trained to do the opposite my whole life is actually really helpful. Not really cheap, but private lessons in anything never are, and they're not ungodly overpriced, which is nice. I bought a 10-lesson package, so we'll see how it goes! Parking is a pain, as the garage is really full no matter what time of day I go (I've gone with BF for his before), but there's coffee right across the street, and I can't complain about that.

I did the 1 hr individual assessment with Alisha Matthews and couldn't be happier. Of course the…read moreresults remain to be seen...its up to me to use the information and guidance Alisha provided but here are my post-assessment thoughts: - First Alisha is fantastic to work with! Very personable, very knowledgeable, appears to be a GREAT listener (!!!), relays information in usable ways, and doesn't overload you with comments, thoughts, changes. This was my first time meeting / working with Alisha and the experience was very enjoyable. - Alisha started off our assessment asking me a host of questions, which was refreshing. She asked questions covering my golf experience, my background with golf (and other sports), my goal(s), my golf frequency, why I was there, etc. It was a wonderful way for us to get to know each other. Off to a good start! - Alisha watched me warm up then hit some balls. Good conversation along the way, a couple of "atta boys" during the warmup and swings. Then the fun began. Alisha video'ed me swinging and pointed out some areas we were going to work on. All which was explained in very understandable terms. - Then 3 drills to help a couple of key areas, which I practiced while she observed...extremely helpful and something I could continue to work on. - We talked about next steps, which Alisha left totally up to me...no pressure, no "sign up now" focus. I probably left out something along the way but my assessment was well worth the investment. Alisha seems like an incredible instructor and I'd highly recommend her. I'll be working on the "homework" Alisha gave me then looking to book more time with her.

I recently purchased a lesson with Maria for my son and girlfriend. When they got home they…read morecouldn't stop talking about how enjoyable it was for a few reasons. First was how she improved their swings, and second was how comfortable Maria made them feel. In fact they are already making plans for their next lesson when they come back to town. (They live out of state). Both enjoyed their video playback and were surprised how well their swings improved after just a few pointers from Maria. They are looking forward to continued progress. To summarize, they loved Maria's teaching techniques and her encouraging personality.

Mick Kennedy and the pro am staff are fantastic. I have been…read moredoing lessons with Mick and am thoroughly satisfied. Mick starts with the fundamentals of the golf swing and evolves into using the camera work and technology to really dial in the swing and to enable certain "feels" in the golf swing. We are always going back to fundamentals while working on improving athleticism in the golf swing. Whether you are just starting golf or wanting to take your swing to the next level, I highly recommend doing a package with Mick!

I was pretty baffled, I've owned many drivers and never had a shaft snap like that. I called Pro Am and spoke to Rob, and within about two hours Cobra was already sending me a new shaft. I was really impressed with Rob and all of Pro Am Golf. You can't find that level of customer service many places these days. Rob even followed up with me a few days later to let me know the shaft was being delivered the next day and to be on the lookout for it. Really impressed with these guys.

For drink I ordered the coconut watermelon cocktail which is a tequila based cocktail. I loved those flavors together. I do want the company to note that the bartenders need customer service training! I hear things that a customer shouldn't hear and sometimes their service is horrendous!

We were…read moreinitially told the wait for a bay would be about an hour and a half, but when I mentioned we were fine with a bottom floor, it suddenly dropped to around 30 minutes--which was confusing and a bit frustrating. I also expected to pay the before-2:00 PM rate of $20/hour, but that wasn't the case and wasn't clearly communicated. The highlight of our visit was Myla, our bay host. She mentioned she doesn't usually work Saturdays, but she was fantastic--super attentive, friendly, and great at making small talk. She really made the experience much better. The boneless buffalo chicken wings were fantastic. The drink prices were a little high having mix drinks around $13. Good vibes and fun patio too! Myla was still the highlight of our visit.
