Students Say

I can’t tell you how pleased Sonya and I are with the lessons that Sonya received over the past three days. Mary patiently and accurately diagnosed both Sonya’s golf swing and her golf state of mind, and focused on exactly the areas where Sonya needs work, in a way that was clear, logical and understandable to Sonya. We were meticulous about taking extensive notes (Mary saw to that) that will memorialize the lessons for us. Sonya has had a few sporadic lessons over the years, but none have remotely approached the level of detail contained in Mary’s lessons, and none involved such a careful diagnosis of Sonya’s game and temperament. Sonya will be on the practice tee on Friday, ready to build on the superb instruction that she received from Mary over the past three days. She may be a candidate for Most Improved Golfer of 2016! Thank you all so much. We hope to see Mary and perhaps you in the future. Dick J. Ipswich, MA

Dear Jay, I wanted to let you know what a phenomenal week I had in Miami at your school. Amy Benz was my instructor, and she over exceeded my expectations providing me with professional and expert guidance beyond anything I could imagine. I have been playing golf for about 25 years and have had instruction. However, if Amy had to say something 50 different ways for me to catch on, she figured it out. I left Miami with a solid grasp on golf fundamentals. More importantly, I left with tools to fall back on, when my game (inevitably) goes to pot!!  I plan to attend the school again, probably next February in Phoenix. I will be requesting Amy, and I can’t wait to have another go at improving my skill set! Thanks for crafting such a great training concept, for hooking me up with Amy, and for your amazing follow-up prior to my signing up. I own a catering company, and in my world it is all about details. Clearly, we are philosophically on the same page. Can’t wait to see you all next year.

“During our 5 days together you  taught me the key elements of the golf swing and given me the confidence to begin enjoying being on the course.  For this I was always be grateful to you and in your debt. I went out on Friday morning after you left and got a fast 9 holes in at the Senator course since they had a tournament beginning at noon and no one else was playing. I felt great and even though I didn’t hit consistently, I really knew how to get back in there and adjust when I missed one.  That was terrific feeling The following day I played another course in Miami with my friend who I knew would be one of the 10 percent hoping I didn’t improve and he could still win the match Well thanks to our work together I was 4 up after 9 holes and though he won holes 10 and 11 before we quit to see the Ranger hockey game, there was no question that my game had improved big time”.

Jay and Shirley, Received your follow up letter today regarding the Golf Academy. I wanted to let you know that of all the things I have on my bucket list and the ones I have checked off, this is the only one I would come do again. It was an amazing experience and Shirley was the perfect pro for Lisa and I. We are trying to figure out when we can schedule this again. Not only was Shirley instrumental in helping improve my game she also helped me select clubs that will also make a difference. Thank you Shirley for going the extra mile in doing that for me. We have a four season doom in Columbus, because we are still at 10 degree temps here, that I have gone to since I have been back and even I am shocked at how much I retained. Must have been the teaching and exercises Shirley consistently reinforced. I know I am going to love the season much more this year than I ever have in the past, just waiting for spring to show up and these artic temps to exit our area. I am so thrilled that we choose Bird Golf to have this great experience. Sue Lusk-Gleich Columbus, OH Golf School: Arizona
