I've only been working with Chip for two lessons, and the adjustments he has helped me with have my ball flight 100% better. He keeps the lessons very manageable by not overwhelming the student with too many swing thoughts. I have no doubt I'm making progress each week.

I wanted to get a good value out of my lesson and I did! My advice is to Keep your ears up and listen and he’ll tell you all the tools to fix your game. Looking forward to continuing my lessons with him

My first lesson with Chip was exactly what I was hoping for. I am picking up golf again after years of not playing and I needed to understand some basic fundamentals of golf to learn how to aim properly (which is where Chip wanted to start based on his video assessment of my swing - a very nice tool he uses). It's like night and day. My shots are overall straighter after 1 lesson. I really couldn't believe it. If you want to tighten up your game Chip is the man! I will be on his schedule for regular lessons.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer 30 and 60 minute game improvement lessons. Pricing depends on the length of improvement lesson selected. Prices can vary starting at $25 for a group clinic and up to $150 per lesson depending on if the program is for an adult or junior at either a 30 or 60 minute lesson. All 60-minute lessons include video analysis of your swing.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I believe the key to shooting lower scores is to learn how to be more consistent with every club in the bag. By successfully coaching hundreds of students since 1995, I have valuable experience and knowledge in teaching the proper fundamentals and techniques of both the full swing and short game that are necessary to help lower your scores.
The key to obtain this goal begins with understanding consistently cause and effect. The first step in achieving this is to have a good foundation. By learning how to have the proper setup, position, aim and alignment. We will build from the ground up a more consistent fundamentally correct setup, which in return will begin the proper foundation in understanding what is needed to implement a change with your “Cause and Effect.”
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a award-winning PGA Director of Instruction, who has gone through the necessary requirements of earning my Class A PGA membership through the education and on course testing with the Professional Golf Management Program of the PGA of America. In addition, I have taught in separate golf clinics with David Leadbetter, Jim Flick and Tom Watson.
