Bobby was amazing and I learned a tremendous amount in our first session. I am looking forward to putting into practice what I learned and taking future lessons. His knowledge, experience, expertise and energy were amazing.

Bobby is an amazing coach. I had my first golflesson with him yesterday and he was so quick to point out the technicalities that needed improving. He had an entire bag filled with tools that were key to my understanding of the basic swing. Will be doing follow up lessons bi-weekly. Thanks Bobby!!

I have never played a game of golf, so I was quite nervous about my first lesson. First, BobbyP said we are going to the back of the driving range for privacy. That was big for me. He has visual aids and equipment to help visualize the swing. He knows his game and has a gift for confidence building. He points out the little things that I was doing wrong and keeps it simple. I actually had a few good swings and he is the one I can thank because he is patient, easy to be with, and an excellent instructor. Look forward to more lessons with him. Oh, and I do loved his enthusiasm.

Bobby was great. I have not played golf in a long time and was not sure what I needed to work on to get the balls to go in the right direction. Bobby right away had many tips and drills to get me started right. By the end of the first lesson I was already seeing much improvement. I look forward to continue working with Bobby to more hone my skills!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The pro shop where I am employed has several promotions on going all the time. From newspaper ads, to e-mail coupons to flyers, it is challenging ringing in customers. They are often hesitant on the presentation of such coupons and quite often you have already rang then up and another person in their group has a better coupon to use...and you guessed it... credit & re-ring!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
As a PGA Class A member, we are required to achieve 54 hours (MSR hrs-Member Service Requirement) of continuing eduction in a 3 year cycle. As of now, with 5 months to go in the cycle, I have acquired 232 MSR hrs.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I wanted to be a PGA professional at an early age. I wanted a nice lifestyle which a facility professional enjoys.
