Mark is a great coach. He's improved my swing tremendously based on my personal strengths and…read morebiomechanics. He's very knowledgeable about swing concepts but breaks things down into feels that are easy enough to practice after each session. Since working with him, I've gone from a 4 to scratch handicap. My last lesson had an immediate effect on my ball-striking. I hit 15 greens in my first round since. Golf is hard at any level, but finding a good coach like Mark is invaluable.

I've worked with a number of golf coaches over the years, and I can honestly say Mark is one of the…read morebest I've ever met. Most coaches can teach the mechanics, but very few have the kind of genuine passion, intelligence, and clarity that Mark brings to every lesson. He doesn't just tell you what to do -- he helps you understand why it works. The way he explains the game makes everything click and actually stick. One of my favorite experiences was when he met me at the course to play a full round together. Being able to apply what I'd learned in real time, with his tips and insights along the way, made all the difference. That kind of hands-on commitment is rare, and it shows how much he truly cares about his students' growth. There's no referral program or incentive here -- I just owe him this review. Mark is the real deal. If you're serious about improving your game, learning from someone who genuinely loves to teach, and getting clear, intelligent instruction, Mark is the coach you want.

My appointment was at 12:15 Thursday at the LW driving range. My game needs help my clubs are 20 yrs old. My appointment was with Jonathan Huerta lead experiential representative with TM. Jonathan was set up with all the latest TM has to offer. I started with hitting the driver and all the woods we tried several different shaft and heads combinations Jonathan was friendly very knowledgeable patient and a pleasure. We moved to the irons and covered most all of them shafts, heads ball speed distance I bet I hit over 120 balls. The LW driving range was a perfect venue Attendants checked on us regularly keeping us supplied with all the balls, whatever we required. My 75 minutes session was outstanding.. I'll get Jonathan's recommendations emailed to me. I was hitting the ball much better with the TM equipment and Jonathan's expertise. Great learning experience but I'm very sore today Thank you Lagunawoods Golf & Taylor Made

Unfortunately, what should have been a brief, friendly interaction turned into an unnecessarily uncomfortable and disappointing experience. Rather than being treated with basic courtesy, I was spoken over, questioned about my presence, and made to feel unwelcome. I fully understand and respect that facilities may have policies regarding outside promotions or distributing materials. However, there is a professional and respectful way to communicate those policies without making someone feel like an inconvenience. A simple, courteous explanation would have been more than sufficient. Following the interaction, I took the time to contact golf operations management directly, outlining my experience and concerns. I believed addressing the matter privately was the appropriate first step. More than a month later, I have yet to receive a response or even a simple acknowledgment. As someone who genuinely values the game of golf and the relationships it fosters within our local communities, I find the entire experience disappointing. Hospitality and professionalism should be fundamental to any golf facility, regardless of whether someone is a member, a guest, or simply a visitor. I hope future visitors are treated with greater courtesy and that concerns brought to management receive the consideration they deserve.

I've since recovered and I recently invested in some clubs, which of course means I need a bag. I researched quite a bit, and I read extremely quick so I can absorb a lot of information. I looked at everything on the market. I was fascinated when I ran across the paradox bag, because I don't want it on my shoulder. What I can say about this bag is it's unbelievably amazing. It's your golf bag, but it feels like you're taking your coffee table with you, in a good way. It's very stable and all the little features really add up to a pleasant experience. I know it's probably near impossible task for the engineers, but if it weighed a couple pounds less I would be over the moon. But I'll take the weight, because of the convenience. It folds up, and I throw it in the back of the car, you pull it out pop the wheels on pop out the front wheel, and the only way it could be any better is if it had a motor, ha ha. I kid, I'm extremely happy with the bag and the way it performs, it's so easy to push or pull along. It just makes the whole round of golf quite a bit more pleasant. Thanks to you guys for making this bag, and kudos to the genius that thought this up.

At the end of the round I thanked him for his suggestions and told him he should coach. He explained that he did coach and I started lessons and playing rounds with him very soon thereafter. Kyle is an exceptional coach who has been very patient with me in terms of helping me break bad habits in all aspects of the game. I've been working with him for 3 years now and my game has improved significantly. Kyle's focus on balance and proper hip rotation has greatly improved my swing. I couldn't hit out of the traps or chip worth a crap and I've become decent at both. I'd suggest that you both take lessons and play rounds with him if possible as he provides great practical tips and reads greens better than anyone I've played with. In addition to being a great coach, Kyle is a really good and fun guy. I highly recommend Coach Kyle; particularly if you're a beginner and/or have bad habits like I did.

I want to start this review with a high-level background of my "golfing profile" to provide readers…read moreof this review with additional context related to my experience with / perspective of Jim Hartnett. I started playing golf when I was 10 years old (now 39yo), learning the game from 3-4 different teaching professionals from the age of 10 - 17. I played competitively via junior golf and high school golf with a low index of 4.2, and currently am a weekend hacker carrying a 6.1 index. After my high school golf "career", I swore off teaching professionals because I found that the lessons I received conflicted with the golf swing my mind and body were searching for. I was lucky enough to stumble upon Jim Hartnett when signing up for a gym membership at the same facility that Jim gives golf lessons at. Prior to meeting Jim in-person, I thoroughly researched him online, and stumbled upon what I believe to be one of the best & most insightful golf books I've ever read--"Golf for the other 80%: The answer to why you can't improve". After reading his book from cover to cover, I knew I needed to see the application of his golf swing theories first hand, and subsequently had a one hour golf lesson with Jim. Simply put, Jim is a true maverick in the golf instruction space. His approach to golf instruction is completely different from the numerous golf lessons I've had in the past. Jim is incredibly knowledgeable about the golf swing and its associated mechanics, applies the latest and greatest golf swing technology into his lessons, and approaches teaching in a much more practical application manner vs theoretical / didactic manner, which I very much appreciated. After my first one hour lesson with Jim, my understanding of the golf swing had taken a quantum leap forward, and many of the golf swing mysteries I had been trying to solve for years were finally put into focus. The following quote from Mickey Mantle ultimately sums up what my experience with Jim Hartnett resulted in for me: "It's unbelievable how much you don't know about the game you've been playing all your life." Thanks Jim.
