Mr. Marshal is the ultimate best ! I HIGHLY recommended to anyone who is looking into learning golf. I researched for days all over the internet looking for a golf professional and finally found the BEST. I am so glad I decided to go with John. I have no coordination whatsoever and have never play any sports. For me, golf is harder for for most people. Mr. Marshall was sooooo patient, kind and so funny. He took the time I needed to understand every little concept. He explained the game itself and made it fun. I knew nothing about it. I fell in love with the sport just because of Mr. Marshall. First lesson, I could not hit a single golf ball, on my last I was able to hit balls further than I could ever imagine and I feel so confident I can play now. Do not look any further! Mr. Marshall is the real deal and you will learn more than you can imagine. Can't recommend him enough!!!!! read more

Over many years I have taken lessons from several golf instructors and not really improved. When I worked with John Marshall, he immediately spotted 3 flaws in what I was doing. He really understands the mechanics of a good golf swing and has a very sharp eye to pick up very small things that in a golf swing can make a huge difference. My scores dropped by 6-7 strokes on average per game because I stopping hitting those frustrating FAT shots, and, I also started hitting much straighter ball directions. It was well worth my trip from Canada to Atlanta, GA to take the lessons from John. Golf has actually become fun again and I lose a lot less balls. I highly recommend John to any golfer out there struggling to improve their golf swing. John also has a wonderful personality and is a really nice person to work with. read more

Let's start with he's a long drive champion, writes for the major golf magazines, coaches a few of the top pro women in the world and has a bevy of stories about his time with Nicklaus and other famous golfers! I was a late comer to the game of golf with a baseball background so I wanted to take a set of lessons from John. He said, "No, take one, then go practice." I did. My scores (and I play by the rules) went from the average 101 to 103 range down to high 90s after one lesson. P.S. We only used a wedge in that lesson. I continued with John for another lesson ... and again he made me practice. I brought my average scores down to the mid 90's. After roughly 4 or 5 lessons I now have an official handicap ( other than not being a good listener according to my wife) it's 18. read more

I've always been self-taught gave the game up for a long time took it back up a couple of years ago. I was able to get my swing back for the most part but then I started to really struggle. I never had a formal lesson in my life until I met John his knowledge and experience with the golf swing has helped me tremendously to where in a short period of time he had me hitting the ball a lot better. He will definitely get me to where I would like to be as far as the level of my game I'm trying to achieve, he is definitely the teacher that can get that done 100%. I have referred a couple other gentlemen both at totally different levels of their game and he has helped them as well if you're looking for a teacher look no further John Marshall is the man. read more

Golf Instructor It's rare in golf when you meet an instructor that knows how to analyze your swing and consult your mental approach to the game. John Marshall has made golf instruction into an art. He has gone from being able to write about golf, to play golf and to teach golf in a simple professional manner. From a beginner at most any age to seasoned players, John can evaluate the most positive parts of any golf swing. He doesn't need any accolades or rewards other than the personal satisfaction that he's made the game fun for one more interested fan. He connects in a different manor each session and we all are the recipients of his quality time and experience. As the commercial used to say....try it, you'll like it! read more

I've played golf, on and off, since my teen years, but never took a lesson. Now, in retirement, I've the time and opportunity to play it more, but haven't enjoyed it more...until John. In a handful of lessons, he's put me in a position to hit more confidently and have a good time out there. My approach to the game was not to take it too seriously and live by the motto "hit one good shot in a row!" After working with him, I'm thinking I might have 2 good shots in a row in me. As a man, he's more than affable and intelligent. As an instructor, his calm manner, composure, and consistent encouragement, insights and corrections make him an outstanding teacher. Want to have fun with a better golf game? Go see John... read more

I recently completed a course of lessons with John and I have to say how impressed I am with him and his teaching methods. To give a little context, I have played a little but never seriously because honestly I was never very good. By the end of my lessons, I took 8, I know the basics and how to practice to get better. I feel that I now can go out on a course and not only not get embarrassed but can actually play fairly well. I will be signing up for a follow up lesson or two in the very near future. I highly recommend John as professional golf instructor to anyone who wants to learn the game or improve there existing game. Thanks John! Will read more

I had been dealing with very inconsistent ball flight for a long time. I'd block one tee shot, snap hook the next one and hit a lot of thin and fat shots with my irons. All of this led to scores that I didn't like. After I took one swing in front of John he quickly assessed my primary swing flaw and showed me how to correct it. Then he gave me drills to ingrain this new motion. I had been trying a million different fixes and getting absolutely nowhere. Within six balls I was hitting it better than I everhave. If you want to reach your full potential, John will help you get there in a very big hurry! read more

John: Amazing lesson. Thank you so, so much for your help!  You truly are worth your weight (or, better yet, MY weight) in gold. You are a natural teacher, and you have given me two simple but key concepts to focus on...well, three...I can keep those three things in mind and I know the results will be encouraging. I know I still have a lot of work to do, but you have given me some tools with which I may extricate myself from the rut I have been in. I will update you after my outing tomorrow! Thank you a hundred times over. Best regards, Ed H read more

John is an incredible golf instructor! I had such a great lesson with him--he's not only knowledgeable but also super encouraging and easy to work with. He broke things down in a way that made sense, and I saw immediate improvements in my swing and confidence. He used video feedback, provided clear reference materials, and even sent detailed notes after the lesson. I left feeling excited and motivated to keep improving. If you're looking for a golf coach who's professional, thorough, and genuinely enjoyable to learn from, John is your guy! read more

I took a lesson with John and then played a round for the first time in two years. I didn't score well, but I was very pleased with most of my drives and long iron shots. I even hit a drive 249 yards down the middle of the fairway, and several 225 yard drives. On the back nine, I was able to make par once and had a string of bogeys (as opposed to triples and snowmen). It was a lot of fun. I saw meaningful improvement after just one lesson. I will keep working and visit John again soon. read more

John is an amazing instructor. He sees and helps make those little adjustments that can have a big impact on your golf swing. In addition to being a very talented teacher, John is a strikingly genuine guy with a passion for the game and it's history. He's been a joy to work with and I only hope that I can continue to be his student until I've reached my full potential as a golfer. read more

Mr Marshall makes learning this impossible game fun. His golf swing knowledge and teaching techniques have helped me hit it longer and at same time become more consistent resulting in lowering my index by 4 strokes. And ask Mr Marshall anything about golf and its history. Ill bet he knows the answer. read more
