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.

Great first lesson with Denny. He has me practicing a drill that I would never be so effective that…read moreit reworked my understanding of the golf swing! Thank you, Denny!!

Thank you Ed for an outstanding three days!!! What an experience!!! I attended with my son-in-law…read moreand grandson. Ed did a great job explaining his club focused teaching that is based on another great teacher - Manuel de la Torre. Ed does an excellent job explaining the "why' and the "how". He is highly organized and a great communicator. The use of visualization has already made large changes in my short game. This is a great school for all ages and handicaps. Thank You Ed!!!!!

My name is Al Parks and I attended the Heartland Golf School. My instructor was Ed LeBeau and the…read moreknowledge that I received for Ed is priceless. This is the only person that I have ever worked with me that has taught me the logistics / physics of golf. Let me explain, in order to perfect anything, you need to understand how it happens and why it happens both mentally and physically and Ed does that. Ed can draw you a mental picture of something that you do daily that relates to your golf swing which helps you understand the mechanics of your golf swing. After completing the Heartland Golf School Ed is always available to you via a telephone call to fix anything that's broke with your golf swing. Thank you Ed for making me a competitive golfer. Ed LeBeau is a Golf Guru !!!!!

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.
