I tried a couple of places for lessons. Then, I tried NorCal. In a short 3 months, my game is improving!! Lulu Huang is my instructor and she's top-notch!

I am almost 4 months in (7 lessons total) and am currently sitting at a 18hcp. We joked that's about 1 stroke per lesson! Hopefully I can update down the line with my final numbers. I chose NCGA because of the tech. It's so much easier when you can work on something technical and see the improvements in the data. I am driving from San Francisco so you know it has to be worth it for the commute. So far so good!

I started lessons with Ian less than a year ago and he has completely transformed my game. I could…read morebarely swing a driver and had no real foundation -- in under 9 months, I broke 100 for the first time. The progress has been real. Ian has a sharp eye for mechanics and breaks everything down in a way that actually sticks -- starting from the ground up with grip, then building into swing path, ball position, and tempo. He gives you a clear roadmap and builds on it lesson by lesson. I practice a few times a week and take monthly lessons with him, and every session I walk away with something concrete to work on. What sets Ian apart is that he's not just technically excellent -- he's also a great communicator who's genuinely invested in his students' progress. You can tell he loves what he does. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced golfer looking to sharpen your game, I can't recommend Ian enough. He's the real deal.

Ian corrected my set up, take away, and downswing in a manner that was very understandable and relatable. I'm striking the ball much better now than I've ever had in the 25yrs of playing. My confidence level is much higher now. I've had several coaches in the past but no one has been impactful as Ian. I will see him again for tune ups in the future. Highly recommended!

The driving range was pretty unique as it was hitting uphill. Although, the ball dispenser was a bit weird as I tried to buy a large bucket and it kept giving me small. The mats were nice considering it was outdoors and it also had rubber tees. The pro shop was nice and clean with a ton of clubs and merch to check out. Bought the obligatory souvenir ball. The pro shop guy was very nice and welcoming. The course itself was worth the drive. Great fairways all around. The roughs were in good shape too. The greens were superb. A bit fast since we did play in the afternoon but good for a challenge. Great views and hills to get good pictures for if you're like me and love photography. Ill be bringing my camera next time. The golf carts were good too and maintained. I wish they had the monitor gps but regardless it worked just fine. Would of gave the last star had there only been a beverage cart making rounds and the restaurant being open a bit longer since we weren't able to order any food. Will be coming again with my buddies as theh enjoyed this course as well. Thanks Indian Valley!

The staff was really nice and helpful, as mentioned it was out first time and we needed some guidance on what to do and where to go. The purchase of balls was cheap, and they actually have some clubs if you need to borrow one(we did) at no cost, please just dont forget to return these, its a nice touch on their end and it would be a shame if it was ruined. Its first come, so pick your lane, grab a chair and hit some balls. They have drinks and food that you can order while you're playing, or you can opt for a table after you're done. Regardless its a great place to come an enjoy a nice day.

She is a consummate professional, good sense of humor, very supportive, has good coaching tools and will work with your swing. No ego. Just fun golf talk and a kind person. The other coach...a guy at Blue Rocks is pretty cocky, walking around like he's cool... nah he's not.... he just starts to set up all his stuff for his class, as you and others are putting, yells for people to move and then when I asked what he was doing, he brings out his "pro" card or employee badge or whatever. Apparantly means, he owns the place. Anyways. Do not go for that guy. Rebekka is the Wo'man' for the job. She works w your swing and gives good practical tips to improve. She films your swing and sends it to you, I have spent many hours looking at my swing and playing back her words of wisdom and it has given me lots of helpful tips and you are able to work on them, on your own. She has a set rate and also a package rate that save you $$ (I got the package rate of 6 classes) She is awesome and soon will get booked up. So, give her a call ASAP. See pics of where we practice.
