Martin is a great instructor for someone my age (76). He understands my limitations and works with what I have. I never used my lower in my swing, Martin has made great progress in developing this aspect of my game.

What energized me was how Martin clearly explained the adjustments I needed to make and guided me step by step through my swing. His detailed approach made the lesson easy to follow and very effective. If you're looking to improve your golf game, I highly recommend giving Martin’s lessons a try. You won’t be disappointed! ⛳️

I have known Marty for over 30 years. Each and every time I play golf with him he is very helpful and patient. He doesn’t embarrass or push his opinions on you unless you ask ,which I noticed everyone values his opinion. He is very helpful and knowledgeable. He allows you a comfort level where you can understand exactly how to improve your game and enjoy golf as it was designed.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI understand what you want to accomplish. I like to walk before we run. Enjoying every step toward being a golfer that enjoys the game. There are so many aspects of the golf swing I take a lot of time with fundamentals. I feel if you have proper fundamentals the rest of the swing will be easier to understand.
Lesson 11+Get on the course and see where you stand. Have so fun
Lesson 4-10Hopefully we are at a point of trying to achieve consistency. Also introduce some rules and etiquette of the game
Lesson 2-3Continue with fundamentals help you understand the concepts of the golf swing

What you need to bringBe comfortable this is not a job. If you don’t have clubs you can rent clubs at any of the locations.

What I can bringA set of clubs at least a 5 iron
