When it was my turn I asked for help with my short game and he gave me the basics to work on. But... he said let's see your full swing so I hit a couple of 7-iron shots. He said I was leaving a lot of power on the table and showed me how to utilize my wrists better. After the lesson I hit 15-20 balls and it finally clicked. The next day I went out on the course and hit my 7-iron consistently 10% further than I did 25 years ago. All of my clubs hit 20-25% further the next day on the course. He showed me how to feel the swing in 2 minutes with one of his props and it changed my game for years to come. Initially I told him I was losing distance because of my age but he showed me that age can be compensated with technique. Thanks Brian.

This requires both expertise and intense observational skills; but what sets Jacob apart as a coach is his delivery. As a coach, Jacob has a crisp clarity + genuine warmth that clearly sets him apart as a truly exceptional teacher. With an infectious encouragement despite your skill level, Jacob is an outstanding coach + amazing ambassador to the sport of golf! On a personal note, this total noob went from not being able to even make contact with the ball, to being able to hit both irons + driver within 6 lessons. For how insanely difficult this sport is to maintain progress and hit consistently -- especially for this athletically challenged human -- those results speak for themselves. A rare gem indeed.

Eventually I hit a plateau and was no longer improving. Thanks to Coach Jacob's guidance and expertise, I quickly saw a significant improvement in my swing, accuracy, and overall game. He helped me develop a consistent swing and taught me important strategies for both long and short shots. He really goes the extra mile and records videos that helped me out a ton when I practice alone. What I appreciated most about Coach Jacob is his passion for the sport and his desire to help me succeed. I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to work with such a knowledgeable and supportive coach, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their golf game.

Really great place. I really enjoy that at this location there are grass ranges which is unlike…read moremany of the other driving ranges here in SD. There are also mats which you can use as well. Prices: Small - 45 balls - $13 Medium - 75 balls - $15 Large - 105 balls - $19 Jumbo - 150 balls - $22 They have a short game area is also free to use There is also a top tracer area that goes for $35 an hour and Although I havent done it, it seems like a pretty decent deal as you get unlimited balls. I usually go on weekend during the afternoon and there are always plenty of spots for both parking and hitting. Overall, I would recommend going here, the prices are a bit much relative to other places but you get to hit off grass which I think is better than hitting off mats.

I dont know when is the last time I have played mini golf but when a date suggested this, I said…read moresure, why not? Came here on a Sunday and played an 18 hole mini golf game. The cost was $13. There is also a 36 hole option. There were a lot of people here and we basically waited at each hole to play. Mini golf was stressful for me lol as I feel like I have to get a task done lol. But towards the end, I had a good time. Lots of ample parking here, so no worries there. There are a few snack shops here too. Regular golf is also available here. Overall, a fun experience, not something I would do on my own, but glad I came and had a good time. I could be convinced to come back.

If you're a beginner, I think that's sufficient for a driver shot. They also have huge fencing on the sides so you be sure that your balls will never fly out of the range, but if it does it won't hit anything but trees and grass. The only downside is subset of the stalls have some light shading overhead. I would imagine they get little foot traffic during peak summer hours. The range has spacious ample parking and it has never been a problem. I think a bigger problem might be finding a stall during peak hours.

Had a lot of fun at this driving range…read more It's a simple setup, with a single line of ground floor mat stations. Some of the mats are nicer than others, but overall they get the job done. The ball dispenser uses an app, which you can preload to get bonus credit. I never had any issues with it. I also never had any other issues while practicing here. So I didn't have a reason to interact with any of the staff. There's plenty of parking, even when it's busy. If they put up more shade then it would've met all of my needs.

It pains me so much to leave this review…read more Extremely disappointed by how a battery assault incident was handled by the Torrey Pines supervisor Jack. Torrey Pines has been my favorite golf course in San Diego. As a San Diego resident, I could not be more disappointed by what happened today and, especially, by how the situation was handled by the Torrey Pines supervisor, Jack. During my round, another player became involved in a heated disagreement with us. The situation escalated, and he physically assaulted me with his putter, forcefully striking me in the chest. I did not retaliate. I left the situation and called 911 to report that I had been assaulted. Police responded, along with emergency personnel, and documented the incident. The responding officer provided me with a police report number and told me that I was being treated as the victim of a misdemeanor assault and battery. Afterward, I went to the pro shop because I wanted to understand what action the course would take regarding the other player. I was not asking for anything unreasonable. I simply wanted to know whether the player would be removed from the course after a physical assault had been reported. Unfortunately, my experience with the supervisor, Jack, was extremely disappointing. I initially spoke with him at the pro shop, and he told me that the course had not yet made a decision and that he would get back to me. I later called the pro shop twice to follow up (1 got through) because I had not heard anything. I was simply trying to understand what action, if any, the course was taking regarding the other player. Instead of addressing that question, Jack told me that I was being "pushy" and accused me of "harassing" him. He also brought up the number of police officers and emergency personnel who had responded, as though that was something I had requested or controlled. I had simply called 911 to report that I had been assaulted by a single individual ; I had no control over how the police or emergency services chose to respond. The conversation ultimately ended with Jack telling me that he did not want to "deal with this anymore" and hanging up the phone on me. I understand that there may be conflicting accounts of an incident and that management may need to follow a process before making a decision. I also understand that the course may not be able to disclose every detail of its decision-making process. What I found deeply disappointing was the lack of support and the way I felt my concerns were dismissed after I had reported being physically assaulted. I've attached a screenshot showing my two calls to the pro shop, made simply to follow up on what decision the course had made regarding the other player. For doing so, I was accused of "harassing" the supervisor. Torrey Pines is a City of San Diego municipal golf course, and I expected a much more professional and supportive response from the management of a public facility. This is especially disappointing because Torrey Pines was previously my favorite course in San Diego. After this experience, I no longer feel comfortable returning.

Because of this mistake, I was told it would take another 3-5 business days to get my money back. As an apology, they offered to comp my breakfast and gave me four free drink tickets. However, when I checked my bank account, I noticed I was charged an additional $200 plus other unexpected charges. I also specifically requested a room with a great ocean view. The front desk assured me I would have an amazing view, but instead, I ended up looking at someone else's window and bushes. This was very disappointing and not what was promised. I called and spoke with someone who said they would look into it and call me back, but it has now been a month and I still have not heard anything. The lack of communication, inaccurate room expectations, and poor customer service have been extremely disappointing. This experience alone is enough that I would not return.
