Needless to say, it's mandatory for a businessperson to have a proper golf swing. As many reviewers state, Mr. Crowley's approach to teach begins (and spends quite some time) in the mind. If you're looking to tweak your swing, he can help. If you are a beginner looking to confidently play a full round within the next couple weeks, this may not be the route for you. Or it could be - it seems as a complete beginner, this game takes time to build the skills necessary to effectively practice. But if you are going to commit to becoming a better golfer, I can guarantee that you will leave from your first lesson with a new mindset, a solid grip, and an understanding of stance, posture, alignment. And, if you're a noob like me, you'll start hitting the ball with confidence.

From the very beginning, Coach Brett made the entire experience feel relaxed yet professional. He…read moretook the time to get to know my game -- not just my swing, but my tendencies, my goals, and what I've been struggling with. It wasn't a one-size-fits-all process. This was completely tailored to me. Using high-end launch monitor data and a wide variety of heads and shafts, Coach Brett guided me through the process without ever overwhelming me. Every decision we made had a clear explanation behind it -- from lie angle to shaft weight to grip size. He explained the "why" behind every tweak and let me hit multiple combinations until we dialed in the exact specs that worked best. JB

BIG STORE. LOTS OF GOLF GEAR…read more BIG PRICES UNFORTUNATELY. We were in the market for some kid's clubs. Holy moly... $289! We passed on them. I'm sure they are great clubs but paying $300 for a set they'll grow out of in a year or two... so we got a set online for like $120. I did like that they had some used equipment for cheaper but even those prices were $$$.

I stopped playing Cinco Ranch (we started calling it Stinko Ranch) golf club years ago because of…read morethe terribly slow pace of play. Unfortunately for me, it is the closest driving range and putting green to where I live in West Houston. I went to the driving range on Friday late afternoon in hopes of hitting some balls and working on my putting. The young man at the Pro Shop stood there and stared at me, waiting for me to engage him, complete lack of customer service. Every time I enter the Pro Shop it is clear that I am inconveniencing them. $15 for a large bucket of balls...ridiculously expensive, especially for what you get. Then, have to take your receipt and go to the surly gentleman working in the starter shack. No words spoken...snatches the ticket out of your hand and gives you a partially-filled bucket of old, nasty range balls that look like they had better days back in the 1990's! The only redeeming quality the starter has is that he plays good music! The putting green was closed because apparently they are unable to grow grass in Houston. The driving range is a joke. No grass to hit off of (at least you can practice your right lies!) and hardly any poles / flags to aim at: I lasered targets at 40 yds, 90 yds, 130 yds, 190 yds and 240 yds. Not sure about others but some semi-standard flags distributed across the range at reasonable yardages can't cost all that much...especially at $15/bucket!! 50 yds, 100 yds, 125 yds, 150 yds, 175 yds, 200 yds, 250 yds makes sense to me!

When we approached the desk, we were told we'd get a text when our section was ready. At 4:15pm, I had my friend go back to the desk and that's when they sent us up, never acknowledging that we never received a text message. When we settled in, our waitress came over with some menus and walked us through the process. She made sure to let us know our time had already begun, despite the fact that we were waiting downstairs for the text message to give us the green light to head up. Despite all that, we had a great time and played several games. Definitely can't wait to go back!

Service was great until you order food. The food takes forever to come. Waitress tries to be accommodating but in the end it's not their fault, the kitchen needs to get their act together. Booked 2 bays and supposed to come with a 100$ free food credit, until you get there and they say the promo on their Site was a mistake and they tried to get corporate to fix it, only when you threat that it's false advertising they get the manager to explain the situation. Manager was accommodating and honored the advertised promo originally booked. Corporate needs to proof read their website before posting it. The bay we were in was like built for a 3rd world country. Floors sticky, couches feel like they havent been deep cleaned since the place opened. When you wave your club for the ball to come out, it rolls around the base to the next bay. The tee was like a worn down straw that's been there since opening, never replaced. Had to balance my golf ball like playing a balancing act. The last food order my group was waiting on didn't come untill our playtime was up. The Manager gave us free 15 minutes to basically stuff ourselves or pack it to go. We even specifically told them to pack it to go since we knew it was not going to be enough time to eat. We placed our order about 20 minutes prior. This probably the worst top golf I've been to in the nation, they really gotta get their act together. Security in the parking lot patroling, guess thats good to deter car break ins, but that also gives you a hint how the hood is.

These guys cram an entire high school golf team 30 minutes in front of our tee time and have the gall to tell me "oh they'll be gone long before you get up the tee box, they play fast"; our threesome literally took nearly 3 hours to play the front nine holes, on a WEEKDAY!!! We were waiting two groups deep on nearly every single hole in front nine of this crappy course. Then on hole number nine some ignorant yet again sorry excuse of a marshal comes up and has the nerve to tell us "Hey we need you to rush to get off this hole so you can get to the 10th hole before 5:30; we don't see an issue with you guys make it through but the group behind you wants to play the last hole before 5:30 so could you hurry it up?" I was literally two seconds away from reading this POS the riot act. Back nine was much more pleasant but the downright lying no good service has ruined it for me, forever. Note: the greens on first 4-5 holes were absolute trash, second cut of rough was unmanaged left uncut for months, etc. pathetic.

A Greg Norman designed course located down the street from Cinco Ranch in Katy Texas. Being a semi…read moreprivate club, it means you can still get a T time without the membership and the stuffy Colonel Sanders type often occupy the country club rosters. Gold: 7,100 Blue 6,600 White 6,000 Red 5,000 Lots of memorable holes, with bunker laden and hazard crowding, wind moving wheat fields squeezed par 5's to the volcanic par 3 surrounded by tall little farm on the prairie-ish dense vegetation. This course poses a challenge to all that comes before it. With greens that runs true year around, this is a golf course for serious golfers. Cons: The tall and impossible to trot through rough are cut down. Price is ridiculously high for a course which lacks prestige. Around $100 on weekends same price for cart or walking. It's roughly $400 a month for a membership, but you still have to pay cart fees? If you must see what Norman envisions as a course, this is might be a pretty good experience. But I'll take Dye or Jones any day, as with the high grassy knolls mowed down, this course is becoming a tiger with no teeth.

Academy is one of Barbie's favourite companies and she actually introduced me to it the first time and takes me to Academy on a regular basis for sportswear, shopping and shoe shopping and whatnot. They're great store and sometimes you can find great deals here. At other times there are no deals to be found. It depends on the day and the store. They generally seem friendly, although I do think the company at the corporate level - which is represented by this page - does have several issues. I mean let's not forget this is the same company that fired somebody for physically stopping a criminal from stealing guns and ammo from a store in Florida. They're a multi-state multi-billion type corporation now and I can't give a company 5 stars that does that, but Barbie definitely gives the corporation five stars and loves visiting them on a regular basis, and I have to agree that they are pretty damn good. I mean especially compared to Dick's who I can't say enough bad things about.
