I loved how Kevin got down to my son's level and didn’t move forward until he got it right. The pace was just right, making the lesson feel comfortable and effective. If you’re looking to improve your game with a patient and focused coach, Kevin’s lessons are definitely worth trying out! A great experience overall.

Kevin‘s instruction is clear, detailed and given with confidence. He allows you to space to give you instruction, let you try a couple times and then give more instruction as needed. His patience is unparalleled.

In my mid-30s, I ventured into golfing and initially faced significant challenges with the game. For a while, I didn't take formal lessons and struggled to find my stride. However, once I committed to following instruction and advice, my enjoyment of the game began to grow exponentially. Now, I eagerly join my golf group for weekly rounds across the Puget Sound area, relishing every opportunity to play. Teaching others has become a passion of mine, and I eagerly share my knowledge whenever someone expresses interest in learning.
