Bobby was just fantastic. A great guy and an amazing teacher; someone who was able to simplify concepts so they would stick. He was so friendly and he clearly has an immense passion for the game. He made it fun to learn and I could tell that he really wanted to see us improve. And the facilities were first-rate.John

My experience with Bird Golf was fantastic! My instructor Craig Smith was the perfect coach for me. He was patient, kind, extremely helpful and really knew his stuff! He made everything easy and simple for me to understand and my swing/shots began to improve on the first day. He also taught me how to read my shot pattern and what adjustments should be mad to improve. I also learned short game and putting techniques that are simple and really work. I can’t wait until the weather breaks in Michigan so I can hit the course. I can’t say enough about Bird Golf and my instructor Craig Smith. What a kind gentleman and a great overall experience!Adwhitt1007 W.

Greg, a sincere thank you for all the great work you did with me at Bird Academy Golf School last week at Old Corkscrew in Florida. As we discussed I was a somewhat casual golfer during my work days and raising a family. That meant getting out about 6-8 times a year to golf was sometimes a very good year! In the past few years I joined a golf league that got me out at least once per week with some limited practice. After having retired in the past year at the young age of 68 (!?!) I am committing more time to becoming a better golfer. Coming into golf school, I had convinced myself that I didn’t need to try and swing and play like a pro or try to get more distance – too old for that. I just needed to make some tweaks to my swing and game and be more consistent. After actually seeing my swing and listening/learning from your professional coaching I’ve changed that mantra. I’m excited and committed to some changes that I expect will significantly improve my game and consistency. I am also a much, much more knowledgeable golfer. Thanks again for your patience, coaching, diligence and friendship during 3 great days on the course!

I can’t begin to tell you how much I enjoyed the three days we spent together. It was also a pleasure to meet your wife and get to know her a bit. You certainly helped me with my golf game, but also helped me realize there is much more to life than my previous corporate days that just recently ended. I came home with a feeling that retirement is going to be great, rather than the dreadful feeling I had when it started. Your approach to teaching was absolutely fantastic! You showed patience, understanding, experience and overall – kindness. I was very much at ease working with you. Last night, I had some time so I went to the Golf Galaxy by my house. I hit balls for half an hour in the simulator. I hit some of the best irons of my life as well as some not so good. However, even my bad ones were not horrible and I knew what I did wrong after hitting them and then made the adjustment for a much better follow up shot. Also, there were two times where I went back to 101, then 102 and then a nice easy full swing that worked great. I hit the best 6 iron of my life and I was so excited, I took a picture of it to share with you! When it all comes together, it’s like magic! Again, I really enjoyed our time together. You are a fantastic teacher and I learned a ton from you. I want to stay in touch and continue to use your help. I was extremely satisfied with how my trip worked out! Thank you so much!
