I got fitted at Club Champion in Tampa a couple of years ago but was recently wondering how the hell the kid fitted me when I couldn't hit a golf ball to save my life the day of the fitting. I ended up purchasing a set of golf clubs anyway and have been pretty happy with them but I wanted to get a professional's opinion on my shafts, gapping, and lofts. So, I scheduled a club fitting at GolfTec by Ala Moana and was assigned to Justin. Justin was super helpful and didn't make me feel like an idiot. He spoke plainly and at a level I could understand... And he genuinely seemed to love what he did as an instructor and club fitter. He had me hit a couple of 7 irons and looked at what was already in my bag. He said he thought what I had was good for where I'm at but built me an updated version of my 7 iron with a different shaft just to check it out. He must've had it ready because he came back into the room in less than five minutes. He talked me through a couple of things and then showed me some video of myself swinging next to a prerecorded pro. He gave me two tips and said he wouldn't charge me for the visit. I was super grateful. After leaving, I took his tips straight to Ala Wai Driving Range and immediately hit the ball better. Needless to say, I'll be heading back for lessons sometime in the near future. Thanks so much, GolfTec and Justin! read more

10/10 recommend Golftec! I got fifteen lessons with Coach Bill Hunt. He's seriously the best golf coach out there. He immediately identified my swing issues, and then gave comprehensive swing solutions. He used the Golftec technology to show what metrics needed to be improved, and showed how to fix them. And he's got a really friendly and relaxed attitude, so you feel at ease. My handicap went from +30 to about 10. I also did a wedge fitting for two wedges (60 and 54), and that alone has shaved strokes off my game. Way more hole-out birdies. read more

GOLFTEC Honolulu - Went from crazy left misses, to less than a foot offline. - Golf Lessons Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Great place to tune up your game. Instructions are spot on, personally for you. You really can improve your game. Plus the practice sessions are any time, when space is available. That really helps. You can't go wrong by going to Golf Tec. read more

AB is an awesome coach. I never, ever....write yelp reviews. I would not do this if it wasn't transforming my golf game. Went to golftec to learn how to play the right way. I walk away from every lesson with gratitude to that man. read more

If you enjoy the game, but are currently not scoring like you used to, I highly recommend you sign up for lessons. I was not having fun anymore. My goal was to have an open mind and work past my old ways and learn better mechanics to start enjoying the game again. I am certainly more confident and understand better fundamental skills. I now feel confident that when I am hitting balls at the range, I am doing it the correct way. I will never win any tournaments, but I sure am seeing better scoring and having more fun.

Disappointing session. Your first will have very little instruction and will be a sales presentation of the video playback capability they have. If you don't buy the $1300 package your game will never improve lol. Will not be going back. read more

I came here to learn more about golf and how to play golf. Golftec was recommended by a UH golf student to come here to learn golf when I asked where I should go on island. I have absolutely no prior golf experience, only putt-putt socially with friends and I wanted/interested to learn golf without building any bad habits. I'm over all very pleased. I purchased 5 lesson package without practice sessions. I purchased 5 since I'm a new to golf and didn't know how I would end up liking my lessons or if I really enjoyed golf. But, I do! It actually has been really enjoying, I think it has to do with the teacher I have and the positive coaching environment that has made the sport fun and I see progress with each lesson. My coach is Chris Bonner. Excellent. He's really attentive and really passionate about teaching and making sure I have good form. He is full of detailed explanation, He's able to explain all the why you do what you do questions I have. Knows the science of golf! He's patient. I have not tried the other teachers. I did come in once and bumped into another student that happened to also be taking with Chris and he said he was referred to Chris by a friend because of his passion for teaching. And that guy has been playing a lot longer then me and was on his 6th lesson. So that was positive to hear. My golf lessons are def an investment I've been overall very satisfied with what I'm paying for and I would recommend it to anyone else new to golf or learning to improve their technique. The video feedback I get in a controlled environment is really helpful, especially because I'm a visual learner. There's many class package. Flexible hours that go into the evening so you can go after work and a app where you can see your class lessons and schedule you future classes or cancel them. There's also a parking lot. It's good stuff. read more

For the money I spent ... I learned almost nothing from what I already knew... I tried to be open minded about learning but I couldn't take in one thing ... just a waste off money ...for a digital screen read more

Monday, I had the first playing lesson with my coach, Todd Nagata. It was the perfect way to integrate studio training with the on-course "real world". Todd demonstrated as close to the perfect swing as I've ever encountered, and watching him was a lesson in itself. He did a superb job of settling my nerves resulting from self-imposed pressure to perform well in front of your coach. The benefits of such training cannot be overstated. Best of all, I actually hit a fair number of shots that pleased Coach Nagata and hopefully, showed him his work is not in vain! Thanks Coach!

I received a gift certificate to Golftec and just had my first evaluation two weeks ago with Bill Hunt. I was not able to hit very far and he was able to point out the lack of "hitch" in my wrist and showed me how I can improve on the video. For me I thought the video was very effective. I just played in a tournament and I've hit some balls further than before. I was one of those guys who used a driver on a par 3. At the recent tournament, I tried a 6-iron on a par 3 and got very close to the green. The "hitch" fix worked. Looking forward to my next lesson with Bill! read more

I'm a little bit late saying so, but I had some lessons with Todd Nagata last fall and it really helped my ball-striking a lot. He's a great teacher. I went into this thing thinking the instructor would look at my sorry-ass swing, shake his head, cluck-cluck-cluck, and just suggest ways for me to work with what I got. But right from the get-go, Todd insisted on breaking it down, getting everything right, and then building it back up again the right way. And he wasn't accepting anything less even when I was willing to. One thing that makes a great golf teacher, I've always thought, is the ability to make you understand what the right takeaway, right contact, etc. *feels* like. (I.e., not just looks like.) I think Todd has that gift. I remember many times when he just kept telling me the same basic instruction in different ways until he found one that would make sense to me. I highly recommend Golftec and especially Todd Nagata. read more

Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Not pushy. Just received my first swing analysis and it was a great experience. I was only suppose to get 1 hour of analysis, but received 2 hours. Wow! That's what I call "Taking care of your customers. The place is nice, clean and very organized. All air conditioned so you're not sweating when you're working hard. They have a couple of rooms that convert into putting areas, like the entrance of the building. Cool place. Not much more to say about it, other than if you want to improve your game, you need to go here. They have all the technology to fix anyone's game. I will definitely be back. Wish I would've gone sooner. 4 star's, because there's always room for improvement. read more

GOLFTEC Honolulu - GolfTEC ad - Golf Lessons Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I visited here after not being able to fix the push in my swing. It is great for beginner's or people that want to know how to use a text book swing. Because they can break down your swing with video, they are able to ping point exactly what you should work on. Their web site offers your entire visit online along with practice drills that will help improve your swing. I would recommend GolfTEC to ensure your fundamentals are correct with their precision analysis, but because of the prohibitive price, I would then reach out to a normal golfling instructor for further refining. read more

GolfTec will build your swing from the ground up, from setup all the way to the finish. They teach you to understand what you need to do to execute a good golf swing. Of course, individual milage will vary, according to how coordinated you are, or aren't, lol. I am NOT particularly well coordinated, but my instructor Bill H has helped me immensely. At least when I pull a shot or top a ball I can figure out what I'm doing. It used to be a mystery, and so frustrating, but now at least I can attempt to correct what I'm doing wrong. The video setup in the studio is great, and you can use it for your practice sessions too. I've had lessons on the driving range from 2 different pros, but they couldn't explain the swing from the ground up like GolfTec could. Expensive? Yeah, small kine expensive, so it isn't for everybody, but if you can afford it, GO FOR IT, you won't be sorry. read more

I work with Todd Nagata and up to this point I have nothing but positives to say. My swing has become compact, connected, and powerfull under his instruction. He is patient, detail oriented, and pushes you to work and bring out your best. I would recommend him to anyone. I have heard stories of people going to golf tec and saying that it broke their swing or they came out worse than before. That is complete bullshit...As long as you are willing to buy in, listen, work, and drill you will get better and fast. You will get the most for your money, no doubt. read more

First time Golfers or even if you been golfing for awhile, and want shave strokes this is a must. Get your swing evaluated, you well be surprise with what you see its unreal. You well see a lot of flaws in your swing, but at least you well know the problem. That's why I went. Check it out its awesome. Everyone well have there own experiences, but if you looking to better understand your swing go to GolfTec and get it on video, The staff well break it down by sections . read more

Todd is great teacher , just recently I started with him and he has totally changed my whole swing process.what I love is that he will make you feel good about your game. And work with you. He uses Video to analyze your swing and then makes the adjustment best suite for you..I recommend you to see him to improve you game. read more

Started golfing earlier this year and after getting my butt kicked by my buddy constantly I decided to take the first step towards lessons. Went to get my swing analysis done and I was amazed by what services are offered. Aside from a clean and professional atmosphere, Bill H (the coach I was paired with) took great care of me. In explaining how GolfTEC gets their numbers of what is "good" versus "needs attention" (not bad) everything was clear and concise. Along with clear explanations of the numbers, Bill was excellent at helping me to identify my improvements from some simple tips and videos that can be accessed via GolfTEC's website once one goes at least for a swing analysis. Although I've never taken a professional lesson for any skill sport I do believe that seeing yourself on video will help. Given this, I'm more than likely to sign up for lessons. 4/5 stars because I don't believe you can be perfectly happy based on one experience. Should I continue to go, the rating might just go up read more

I'm currently taking lessons at GolfTec, after five initial lessons over a year ago. They get my highest possible rating. My coach, Todd Nagata, is an exceptionally talented professional, highly skilled in the use of a variety of training aids and the latest in video and shot monitoring equipment. If you're serious about improving your game, and tired of listening to advice from your friends, call immediately! I thought I could do it on my own with hard work and my cell phone camera, but it wasn't enough. read more

Video evidence of how wrong your golf swing is was heartbreaking, but Todd Nagata uses that to break down every aspect of it An thoroughly goes through it in a way that's easy to understand. His hands on teaching approach is extremely helpful an I feel is what sets him apart from other coaches I've had. I've had 4 different coaches on the island An his approach has led me to drop an average of 6 strokes, thanks Todd Nagata! read more

Best customer service and a knowledgeable staff that makes you feel comfortable while learning. See Jason! He is awesome!

Best golf investment I've made, especially after an 11 year golf hiatus. I absolutely love the digital feedback/reinforcement. My game play is better and driving range time more productive. Having Justin as my coach has been nothing short of phenomenal. Can't recommend enough. read more

I visited golftec for an initial swing evaluation and then a follow up lesson. A very clean and professional facility that has knowledgeable and friendly staff. I worked with Todd Nagata and have changed my golf forever. Whilst the lessons are somewhat expensive, these guys use hi-tech equipment so that you can SEE instantly what is going on. No guessing, straight to business and I got real value from each session. Todd has shown me the body dynamics that I am now hitting with more consistency, more power, less effort...am now hitting long draw hits -bye bye slice forever. #oddt14 #golftechawaii Thanks! read more

I have been taking lessons from Todd Nagata for a couple years and it's the best decision I've done in my golfing career. The one mistake is that I should of done it earlier. He identified all my bad habits from moving my head , losing my spine angle, getting too steep and an open face st impact. He teaches and makes you understand the modern swing so you can self analyze yourself when your bad habits creep into your swing. It takes time but I am finally breaking 80 with my last scores being 77. 79,80 and 78. Thank you Todd for making this game fun again. I am definitely going back for more lessons read more

I have to say I was doubtful at first that this would help me. But after 1 swing evaluation I saw immediate changes and increased drive in my swing. Could not believe in just one short session I could learn so much. Now after taking 1 lesson I have learned so much more. Cant wait for the rest of my lessons and finally being able to play a real game of golf. Thank you to Jason at GolfTec Hawaii! read more

These guys are great !! If you really want to improve your game, this is the best place to go for instruction and practice time. The recorded sessions and drills I can review at home help me to reinforce the correct movements. I was pretty discouraged with the lack of improvement from other golf pros. I would not be playing, and, more importantly, enjoying golf, if not for GolfTEC. read more

Todd Nagata is an outstanding instructor. After reviewing and analyzing my swing characteristics, he communicated what I needed to work on correcting in a wonderful combination of ways including audio, visual, graphic, physical manipulation, and drills to take home. His input was professionally spot on. He understands and studies golf intensely, and shares his passion with marvelous results. I recommend him highly. I also worked with instructor Bill Hunt whose skills and enthusiasm included a wonderful club fitting and on course experience. Todd and Bill are outstanding golf professionals. I look forward to continuing to work with them. They are AWESOME. PS I have been golfing for 40 years, and Todd is the best golf instructor I have ever had the benefit with which to work. OUTSTANDING! read more
