    This is terrible place. I am a member in Hack Shake for more than a month, and experiences are terrible. I bought the monthly membership online a month ago. With a monthly membership ($475 member fee), I allowed to play 2 hours per day with no extra charge. I am a beginner and almost go there everyday to practice. Then the manager Tommy start to told that If I arrive late during my reserved golf hours, there will be a penalty. I accepted at first time since I thought it make sense. And today, Tommy send an email to me mentioned if I leave early during my reserved golf hours, there'll be another penalty and fee on my account. I attached email from Tommy below. All the charges and timeframe are decided by Tommy, today he let me start my game early with no extra charge, but want to charge me if I arrive late and leave early. All the rules about timeframes and charges are decided randomly by Manager Tommy. When I sign the membership online, they never told us about additional rules. Not online or on paper or tell me when I first met them in person. Their rules changed from time to time. I believe these activities are against law. Please do not go to a place that never respect the customers.

    So I quickly figured out that I am no golfer. I was glad to have learned that in a simulated environment instead of actually at a golf course. While I am no professional, I think Golf Manhattan offers a pretty cool service. Nice for private events or even a date. The rooms are spacious enough for a golf pro to swing with power. There is a bar that offers wine, beer, and soft drinks. It is in a convenient midtown location accessible by most trains. The initial set up seems awkward since its in a building suite but you quickly forget once you start to swing. The simulation software offers you challenges for friendly competition or just a chance to see how long you can drive. Definitely something you can get hooked on.

He is patient, truly detail oriented, and he will not let me budge on setup or grip, which is exactly what I need. He explains mechanics in ways my brain understands, and if the first version does not land, he tries another and another until it clicks. :) We just had a company event at Canoe Brook Country Club in New Jersey and I am proud to say I held my own. The Hack Shack itself is simple, but the TrackMan is excellent, they had all the women's clubs I needed. The large private room made starting a new sport feel much less intimidating. I have hit at Chelsea Piers and it felt like chaos. This was calm, focused, and genuinely confidence building. If you are a beginner, especially a woman who is nervous to start, go see Evan!

    I had a terrible experience with Evan Cather! First he arrived late eating his yogurt parfait…read moreduring the lesson! He told me to keep both feet planted at all times. This would have injured my hips or knees. Evan was rude and lazy about teaching me proper technique for golf. Evan has no ability to teach a new golfer how to swing a club or how to play golf. He also has no skills in talking to new golfers. Lastly, a week after my lesson, Evan returned a prior call and asked if I was still interested in having a golf lesson with him. Very poor customer service, He didnt even remember that he met me a week earlier. For $190 Evan was a complete scam!

    My dad got my boyfriend golf lessons with Marc as a gift for his birthday and he could not have…read morepicked a better gift! After the lesson he went on and on about how beneficial it was. After a few swings Marc was able to diagnose the main issue with the swing and make the proper adjustment. They were able to work through irons, driver and sand wedge within the hour and he is excited to put the revamped swing to use on the course. He also particularly loved the screen that you hit into and the type of data you are able to derive from it (angle of contact, open vs closed club face, etc.). It was easy to see how the adjustment translated into better data and better contact. Now he is excited to put what he learned to use on the course.

    I began taking lessons with Marc about three months ago. I have played golf casually my entire…read morelife, but never really got into it seriously until recently. I really wanted to improve my game and was getting frustrated with how inconsistently I was hitting the ball, even though I would work hard to hit the range on a weekly basis. Marc started me out with the basics, teaching me to improve minor things in my swing. He never stressed getting things right the first time, but rather getting me to a point where I could start playing consistent golf and start scoring. As the lessons wemt on, I could feel my swing start to gradually change and fill out more. It was a beautiful thing to experience. After four lessons and a good deal of practice on the concepts Marc has taught me, I am now scoring on the golf course better than I would have ever imagined (from 105s to 88s). My drives are straight and my irons are more accurate than they've ever been, with very consistent, pure contact. This was by far the best decision I could have ever made for my golf game, and I strongly recommend Marc to anyone that wants to learn the right mechanics of swinging a club and wants to finally iron out that nasty slice!

    From a wedding guest point of view…read more Wedding was right before the December Storm. This is rated as one of the most expensive venues in NYC. Yes, the views are amazing, however the weather has to be just perfect. Especially if you plan to use the outdoor patio. Which, why wouldn't you? The space itself is not for large groups, wedding party size approximately 50. Plus the wait, bar & other service staff. The location is prime, if you plan to take a car, remember this is NYC & traffic is bad. You can probably walk faster than a cab or car service. Especially during the month of December. NYC gets more visitors in December than all year long. The venue has 2 bathrooms for women which is not good, however worked for this crowd. Think of this location as a once in a lifetime, only if you have the funds for this location. As guests we were thrilled to be invited to such a lavish wedding!

    Thinking of getting married at 620 Loft and Garden? Here's a short review from a wedding…read morephotographer's point of view: If budget isn't an issue, this place is simply magical! Rooftop wedding in the heart of Manhattan with incredible views of St. Patrick's Cathedral & Rockefeller Center. What more could you ask for? It's makes for one incredible experience for not just the bride and groom, but for all of the guests who are always completely blown away. As close as it is to being perfect, there are few things to keep in mind: 1. If the weather doesn't cooperate (as it didn't during the wedding I shot there, when it rained right before the ceremony), the main garden does get quite soggy. It got bad enough that the bride had to walk around the guests via the outer walkway instead of through the middle. Definitely not the ideal way to make an entrance. 2. The inside is as simple as it gets, so it's really up to you(r planner) to make it something amazing. Basically, picture a clean, white room; a blank slate. If minimalism is your thing (as is with me), then you'll love it. Otherwise, plan to get creative! 3. Space. It's definitely not for large events. Even for smaller weddings, the cocktail hour gets quite cramped. But if you're planning on getting married here, you know that already. From a solely photographer's perspective, while it does make possible some absolutely stunning shots (one of my favorite images was taken here, which you can see in the Photos section), the size of the venue as well as the blank indoor space does limit how creative you can get. If you're looking to get a wide variety of photos, I'd highly suggest you stop by another location for or after the First Look and get portraits before heading to 620 Loft and Garden. If you're set on getting married here, a gallery of a real wedding from 620 Loft and Garden is up on my site, so feel free to check it out for some wedding ideas!
