Great lesson today! Good instruction, reasonable price, and funny guy. I've played a lot since covid (probably once a week) and I'm really not getting better. It was my first lesson ever and I think I lucked out. I'm sure he goes through the same shit with a zillion different people, but he kept the enthusiasm level high and gave me some good tips on fundamentals that will hopefully help me immediately level up. A few things, he's a little on the crass side, teasing me about my shitty clubs (haha they ARE pretty shitty), and he'll hustle you for followup lessons. But who can blame him, I gotta take some sales notes :-P. He taught a 91 year old guy after me and he cut the guy a break on the price which I thought was a nice thing to do. Will update in a few weeks when I start outdriving Bryson DeChambeau. read more

He has been so good for our school and our family as a whole experience and patience read more

I am a recent student of Jim after reading these 'Yelp' reviews and after 4 lessons I can say I have improved beyond my expectations. He addressed my posture, grip, stance, swing path, alignment, and hip rotation which were all incorrect. I now have the confidence in my ball striking to really enjoy the game. His anecdotes and stories make the lesson more fun in between shots. I recently won my club tournament at Tilden Park in Berkeley(a course I never played well) and surprised many of my playing partners. I highly recommend his teaching. read more

Jim is the best! Has done miracles with my golf and I enjoy the game much more since seeing him. You can't go wrong with Jim.

Jim was great with my college-aged soon who is picking up golf again after many years. Funny and engaging and offer tips in easy to understand methods and used analogies to other sports that was helpful. read more

Jim is an amazing coach. He is very knowledgeable and he's also great at explaining things to you logically. The lessons are always interesting and I look forward to them every week. Golf is a very difficult game and he simplifies this for me. I would highly recommend Jim. I've tried a few other coaches and this is as good as it gets. read more

I was at Cypress golf range hitting some golf balls when I saw Jim Wysocki just finish a lesson. I asked him for his card. He offered a free golf tip and I said sure. He even took a video. He told me what was wrong with my back swing and fixed that in less than ten minutes. The next day I played Poplar Creek in San Mateo, and shot an 85. I have been shooting around 98. Wow! Jim really knows what he is doing. If he could fix this in 10min. imagine what he could do with a couple of lessons. The swing fixer is correct. Cool guy too. read more

I've been taking lessons from Jim for over a year now and I have improved tremendously. I feel like I come away from every single lesson with actionable drills, things to think about, and intuition that hours of YouTube were unable to do. read more

Jim is an excellent golf instructor. His ability to observe the swing and break it down for you simply makes his instruction great for golfers at all levels. Anyone can teach a complicated method, but only the most skilled can make it simple. I am a 5 handicap golfer. With Jim's help I immediately became more consistent with my swing. He's positive and thorough. If you want to lower your scores, he's great person to work with. read more

Where do i start? How about I scored a 36 and made 5 pars at Golden Gate golf course (par 27) after taking lessons with Wysocki! By the way, I've been playing since last June. Less than 10 months. Now my buddies are watching me swing a lot more in depth and also asking for his number. The golf scene is small in some respects . I've found in my travels through it many great players of the game give a lot of respect for this man. The main reason he is a great instructor in my opinion is because HE CARES ABOUT YOU IMPROVING YOUR GAME! He skipped watching pro tours to help me with my balance issue!!! I will advise that this man does not simply correct swing issues, he grows the game. He's helped me get a killer set of irons too. If you are serious about taking your game to the next level, give this man a call! P.S. Wysocki also is cool with me bringing my caddy(dog) with me to the range! my dog was freaked by golf balls being hit at first. Jim helped my dog learn to love golf too. Im not kidding. Wysocki is the man! read more

Jim is a good coach. I came to him as a golfer with a 13.5 index with a nice draw that could very easily creep into a big hook. I had a big golf trip coming up that I wanted to improve my game for. Jim helped rework my grip / swing and after two lessons, I'm in much more control of my game with smaller misses. I can feel a world of difference with lower scores to boot. I moved from SF otherwise I'd continue to take lessons from him ... would def. recommend. read more

I have to step up and give my friend Jim the 5 stars he deserves. I say friend because he has kinda become that since I've been taking lessons. I took a few lessons from him a few years ago. I sucked as a right handed golfer. I took up the game again last year and have been taking lessons from Jim since. He saw I sucked and suggested that I switch to being a leftie. It was the only time I was able to hit the ball. Through Jim's amazing teaching, I'm now starting to make some real strides as a leftie. Golf is not instant gratification. It's a pain in the ass and I still hit shitty shots. I'm just starting to learn the nuances. Jim says "swing the stick". I didn't know what the hell he meant until he showed me a Youtube video about how much pressure (or, really lack of) you should hold the club with. Grip is the key and Jim is always making sure your grip is correct. Swing fixer -- shoot, he is the swing creator. Each lesson, he has a different approach to get through to you. Don't go to Jim if you are uptight and don't want magic marker on your hands (to show you where to position your grip hands). Go to Jim if you can take some constructive criticism and you actually want to learn. Trust the process. Trust Jim. read more

I've been playing golf for 15 years without any formal coaching, handicap 7.3. The variance in the game has kept on frustrating me. I occasionally play at Gleneagles and that's where I learnt about Jim, he's club champion by the way. I took a package for 5 lessons with Jim and done doing 3 - I'm hugely impressed with Jim's knowledge and his understanding of golf and swing. We are in the process of changing my swing and my goal is to get to scratch (which Jim doesn't know), I'll keep posting my handicap progress here as a real feedback for Jim. I recommend Jim to anyone who wants consistency in the game, learn the fundamentals or even have a good deep conversation on golf and how it works. P.S. I've posted my golf scores - photo "Score History" read more

Jim Wysocki, The Swing Fixer - My scoring history! - Golf Lessons Near Me - Colma, California

About seven years ago when I decided to take up the game again, I quickly realized that I needed help. Since then, I've worked with Jim and he's been instrumental in bringing me down from a 28 handicap to a 10-11. In my opinion, Jim's greatest asset is his adherence to fundamentals: Grip, Alignment, Stance, Posture (GASP) and a great ability to teach them to a wide variety of people. A lot of golf professionals cater to the cult of personality and try to adapt everyone to their teaching style. Not so with Jim. If you're short or tall, skinny or round, highly athletic or not - he finds a way to make you the best you can be. I also like his philosophy that even with the best of instruction, your game doesn't improve unless you're willing to put in the time to work on it. Although I don't take regular lessons from him anymore, I continue to return to him periodically for a one or two lesson "tuneup". He never fails to see room for improvement or subtle bad habits that have crept their way back into my game. If you're serious about learning the game or improving - Jim's your man. read more

I use to play at Glenaeagles and met Jim there. For years I was a single digit and had a solid game. Recently my game went south and I have struggled to break 100. I have had 2 lessons with Jim and suddenly I am back in the mid-80s and at age 59 hitting the ball straighter and longer than ever. The only reason I am not scoring in the 70's is that my irons are going so much longer than ever that I need to relearn distance control. I have had many lessons over the years, but Jim picked up what I was doing wrong almost immediately and has worked wonders. I highly recommend him. read more

The name makes sense. He will fix you up. Nothing more therapeutic than going to hang with Jim at the range with his island music on and mellow attitude. I enjoy working with Jim and recommend him to really anyone... He has a great eye for diagnosing mistakes and then making the swing more simple. Something we all need more of. read more

I was drug to Jim kicking and screaming, I knew there was nothing wrong with my game... I just needed a little more practice! Well it has ended up being the best thing that could have happened for my golf game. Jim is a fun and entertaining person that really knows how you're supposed to represent the game of golf. I had no idea the vast amount of things I was doing wrong, and Jim seems to be able to see small things every lesson. If you're looking for a golf instructor I'd highly recommend seeing the swing fixer. read more

The originator of G.A.S.P. He once hit his driver past the Cypress driving range fence and struck a concrete construction truck. True story. I started playing golf 3 months ago and have taken 3 lessons from him. He's a great inspiration and I couldn't ask for a better teacher to start out with. A sense of a humor coupled with the determination to better your game, at whatever level golfer you are, you should consider him. My 2nd 18 hole course was last week and I shot 112. I'm confident I can break 100 very soon with his teachings. He also gave me chocolate and a free head cover. Jim wins. read more

I recently picked up golf again and finally realized - I ain't getting any better on my own! Tired of the frustration, I found Jim at my local range and also checked on Yelp to see his reviews. I've now been taking lessons from him for a few months now and boy has my game changed! I usually pick up sports quite well, but gold was kicking my a%$. Jim quickly pointed out what I was doing wrong and instantly got me hitting balls. I was amazed and excited! I think the key with him is he takes pride in what he does and he actually cares. You feel that and it makes you want to improve that much more. I'm glad I found him and will continue to have him help me take my game to the next level. I see so many guys at the range just doing the same thing waiting for a quality consistent swing to magically appear. All those shanked balls cost money too so quit going in circles and take lessons already. Let's face it- sucking just ain't no fun so do something about it! read more

Jim is an excellent teacher . He keeps it relaxed and informative,moving at a pace that works for your skill level. He is an exceptionally keen analyst of every little part of your swing. His advice is very intuitive and can be appreciated immediately in the next few swings. I have had a few different golf instructors in the past thirty years,none compare to Jim. Golf is more enjoyable after working with Jim. read more

The golf bug bit my husband and I and we are taking lessons from Jim. Far beyond being The Swing Fixer - he is friendly, funny, kind, eminently knowledgable, a great teacher, and we are seeing immediate advances in our "game." Stop reading reviews right now and book some lessons with Jim! read more

I can't say enough good things about Jim. Great instructor and an even nicer guy! I took a set of lessons from him at a low point in my golf game. Most folks don't go out seeking lessons when they are playing their best. Jim helped me break things down to a few key elements and uncluttered my head. This has allowed me to step up to the ball with several simple thoughts. He gets his points across with the right amount of humor. I always felt very comfortable. He builds a sense of community with his students, encouraging them to chat and learn from one another as well. I continue to absorb and implement the knowledge Jim has imparted on me. read more

My name is Tyler Hoffman. I've always been a pretty decent golfer shooting in the low to mid 70's and of course the blow up rounds. Let's just say my game wasn't the most consistent. I meet Jim at Gleneagles and he took me under his wing and invited me out to the range. Jim approach to teaching the golf swing is unique,but very affective. The first 2 lessons or so I worked on nothing ,but posture and 5 lessons in or so I'm still working on posture. I've learned that posture is the key to everything else in the golf swing. The best thing about Jim is he isn't going to change your swing, he just going to revamp it to make it solid to where it won't break down. Being a some what good golfer, I felt like i reached my potential and was stuck, but Jim has put me on the next level. The game has become more fun and the scores are getting lower. Jim has the ability to make a hack a good golfer, and make a good golfer a scratch golfer. I would recommend Jim to everyone. Don't be scared pick up the phone and call the swing fixer, but he really will fix your swing. Maybe not instantly,but defiantly with time and the right work put in Jim can guide you to hitting fairways and greens. read more

The guys knows his stuff; plain and simple. He is able to communicate proper swing mechanics in a clear concise and straightforward manner. I've been "playing" this game for 30 years. I have had the pleasure of taking lessons from Jim for over 15 of those years (on and off). I have tried others for convenience factors only; he is the best by far. It does not matter at what stage your swing or game is; he will improve it. A very positive instructor on the range. If for nothing else, go watch him hit a golf ball and see how it's done, it's a pure joy to witness. Just go see him if you want to play better!!! read more

I took 20 lessons with Jim and unfortunatelly he is one of many bad instructors that honestly believe they are good. He lacks a significant skill to become effective or simply do not have a grasp on what being an effective instructor requires. He is the veteran instructor that are burned out and had never wanted to teach so there is no creativity in his teaching. He is not motivated to be effective. He spends the minimum amount of time necessary to do his job never arriving early. Absolutely lack of professionalism. He came late for 5 lessons. But the most important is that he doesn't fix the swing and my skills didn't improve at all. And of course there is a difference between an instructor and golf pro. Hi is not a pro. read more

i have worked with Jim for more than 20 years. He is extremely knowledgeable about the golf swing and is capable of quickly analyzing swing faults and recommending a fix. Get over to see the swing fixer! You know you need it. read more

Jim is a great golf instructor. I highly recommend him. I hadn't touched a golf club before going to him and now I can hit it straight down the fairway (maybe not every time, but that's not Jim's fault!). He breaks your swing down to the basics and gives you all the tools you need to make your game more consistent. He can take one look at your swing and know exactly what you are doing wrong. He takes multiple different approaches to correct your swing so you know at least one will connect with you. Great guy! read more

I have played golf since 1962, but took a decade off to raise my kids. Just came back to the game and have been taking regular lessons from Jim. He's been great. First of all, he truly understands the golf swing and can communicate what he knows. When he tells me to do something different I typically ask "why?" He can always answer that question in a way that makes sense. He can connect his recommendation with a clear reason. He teaches solid fundamentals and his goal is for me to be able to diagnose and correct my own swing. I'm getting there. The guy really loves the golf swing! read more
