    A year ago, I casually entered a golf tournament with colleagues before quickly realizing I was going to severely embarrass myself. I had 3 months to break a lifetime of terrible habits. I was beyond awful, never kept score, only played for fun/frustration a couple times a year, etc. I found Lew on Yelp and, even though he was further from me than many other instructors, his reviews gave me a good feeling - I called and we started lessons immediately. I told him about my event coming up, my realistic goal of simply not embarrassing myself, but to treat me like a beginner who knew absolutely nothing - we began building a new swing from scratch. Lew didn't just teach me how to fix something, he taught me why it was happening and gave me a pedagogical understanding that has helped me to analyze and solve my own problems outside of our lessons. He is incredible at diagnosing problems, trying multiple methods to fix problems until one clicks for you, helping you think from a holistic perspective, and taking time to defuse things when you're mentally kicking your own ass. By the time my tournament came around, I sucked...but I sucked SO much less than I used to. And, most importantly, I didn't humiliate myself (and actually made the winning putt for my team on the 18th). The truth: it's not easy...it's frustrating as hell...there's no magic wand. However, everything is always done for a reason with the result in mind and, if you trust the process, you WILL see the results. Lew has made me love the process - and, to get better at anything, that's the most important aspect. A year later - I'm still happily taking lessons with Lew and my game is lightyears beyond where it was a year ago.

    Great instructor. Definitely worth a look. He uses video and can show you your launch monitor numbers.

    I especially enjoy playing lessons on the course where he works not only on your swing but also course management.

    Love this place. It's a low key, down home neighborhood golf store. Well, it's a big golf store…read morewith everything you'd want for practice or a game. You can get away with some great deals. I've been trying to practice and play a lot more. Also got a gently used Spider putter, great buy at $199. My wife lost her pitching wedge on a killer Taylor Made women's set... she got a replacement here. They have plenty of deals on new and used clubs. Had to get a few clubs re-gripped. Brought in a Big Bertha a few weeks ago. Then I had a 3 hybrid re-gripped last week... Callaway X, about 10 years old. When I went back to pickup the club, funny thing is they thought they lost it... Turns out the club had been placed out of order. The guys in the gripping area were genuinely concerned and calmly freaked out about it. It was actually really nice to see how good these kids are. There's some adults working as well as some young kids... Nice neighborhood type of folks. This is a store I keep coming back to right now. There's constantly stuff for me to get. This place has it all for golf. And the people are great too.

While all Roger Dunns have amazing selections of clubs, equipment, and clothes, this store takes it above and beyond with its people. After a couple visits there I learned why it is so amazing, and it comes down to the two captains at the helm, Dene and Terry. These guys live and breath the customer first mentality. They extremely inviting, informative, and they are transparent on all of their analyses on the products within the store. Their exceptional attitudes emanate to their staff. Sometimes I want to work there just to feel like a part of their family. I've noticed myself hanging around the store more often to watch them in action... maybe I will ask them to golf with me sometime soon. I would really like to be friends with Dene and Terry, they do a great job.

I don't have the same time I had in my 20s to devote to the game, so finding quality instruction and practice was key to maximizing the time I did have. I honestly had never heard of Golftec because I've been living under a rock since stepping away from golf, but they were close by, and figured I'd give them a shot. Immediately loved the vibe and access to quality tech and information. First assessment I felt like I was where I needed to be. I felt like I was going to truly transform my game because we were talking the same language and I knew I couldn't do this on my own. I worked with Coach Matt for over 10 lessons and couldn't be happier. We got a lot done in not much time. I got to a single-digit handicap really quickly in my first year back and I wound up flushing so many more shots than I ever did when I was playing a lot of golf in my more athletic days. That was the validation I needed. I may not be able to swing as fast as I used to, but even with that, the scores started dropping, and the quality of shots I was hitting was another level up, even from when I played my best at a 5 handicap at 25. Beyond that though, I have so much more knowledge of where my problems lie. Like most people, I can't bring my swing coach with me on the course every time I play, so when things go sideways, I need to be able to assess and remedy the issues on my own, and I'm thrilled to say I have far more awareness of my swing and the ways to get it back on track thanks to Matt. I'm currently moving to the Bay area now, so I had to stop lessons, but I couldn't praise my experience there enough. The facility is great, the tech is fantastic, but more than that is my one-on-one with Coach Matt. As someone who doesn't love traditional 90-minute lessons because I feel like it's just a lot of standing around talking, I opted for more sessions at 30-minute lengths, which was perfect for the way I like to work. We were able to maximize each lesson with quick, concise, and straightforward remedies for me to work on. I never left any lesson feeling rushed, rather I just felt like the process was simplified to the essentials. We didn't have time to overload each session with all the things wrong with my swing. We identified the 1 or 2 primary issues that stood out, discussed why it's happening and what other chain reaction it might be causing, and then we got to work and started grooving the swing change or putting change. I would generally spend 2-3 weeks just working on those small changes on my own, before coming back in to assess the next step. On top of that, I purchased a holiday package that included club fitting, and it was added insurance to know that the person fitting me wasn't seeing my swing for the very first time that day. I would argue, that nobody on the planet is more familiar with my swing strengths and swing flaws, than Coach Matt. That is a huge benefit to have a fitting from your coach! All in all, my experience was fantastic. I'm sad to leave Southern California and access to this Golftec and coach Matt, but such is life. Thrilled to have had them all in my journey and getting me on the path of better golf.
