Hi Sarah,
Just wanted to give you an update on the effect of your lessons. I led my flight in scoring and my team won our league championship. I received a lot of feedback saying my game had really improved. Thank you.

After having many lessons with several other instructors who are supposed to be great teachers, I can tell you that Sarah is by far the best pro that I have worked with. There is no comparison! She is able to explain exactly what to do in order to correct my swing issues and has helped me build a much more consistent swing. I am so happy I found Sarah and I'm enjoying playing much better golf because of her!

Hi Sarah,
Thank you so much for the lesson yesterday. You are awesome! I appreciate your passion. I would like to work with you throughout the winter if possible. And I hit the ball great after our session....

Sarah is just great. The first year I had lessons with her, after I practiced the tips she had given me, I actually took 10 strokes off my game. Now I go every year for a tune up. Thanks so much.

Sarah is awesome! I was a little nervous at first but she works with you step-by-step! Before taking classes with Sarah, I wasn't hitting consistent. After taking lessons, not only do I hit it farther but I hit it straight! Completely night and day of how I played before.

Adam - here! Finally; beat Dan (84) - I shot 80. It was my chance to shoot in the 70s for sure yesterday at Blackstone (6400yrds)! Thanks again for all the lessons; shot 83 back to back at old orchard; finally getting my score in the 80s hopefully consistent this year! Thanks! Hope you're doing great!

Sarah,
I shot a 93 at Midlothian last Sunday. Best score by about 10 strokes. I appreciate the help...

Sarah is great! First lesson got me back on track and I look forward to taking more lessons. Her teaching approach and techniques are just what I need for improving my game. Plus, she has a great personality which makes the lesson even more enjoyable. Beginner, or someone more advanced like me who needs to work out some bad habits, Sarah could be the answer for you. I highly recommend you give her a try.

When I started working with Sarah I was a golf mess. I actually contemplated quitting the game. I signed up for a few lessons and it was the best thing I could have done. Within my first ten swings she fixed my posture and had me hitting the ball better than I had in years. Now after just a few lessons, I am hitting it one thousand times better. She is patient, knowledgeable, and very good at communicating what she wants me to do. I honestly feel like she has me on a path to being a player I had only hoped to be. If you love the game of golf you owe it to yourself to work with her. Best golf investment out there.

Fantastic instructor! Sarah definitely improved my golfing form, technique, and improved my distance. The lesson was very thorough, informative, and helpful. Sarah efficiently manages to simplify even the most complex sport. Cannot wait until the next lesson! Thank you again.

I have been playing golf for over 30 years. My handicap over the last 13 years has gradually increased from +1.3 to 6.4. I began working with Sarah 3 months ago and due to time restrictions have only had opportunity to complete 3 lessons thus far. After the most recent lesson I have no doubt that I am on my way back to my previous playing level. It is an incredible feeling working with someone so knowledgeable about the game. I have worked with various instructors over the years and after a lesson or two decided they could not help me. Sarah and I began rebuilding my swing starting from the basics (grip, stance, and posture). We have now moved on to proper swing sequencing and other things to help me create a more consistent, powerful impact position. My ball flight has improved drastically and I have a roadmap to lower scores. I am excited about the upcoming tournament golf season and look forward to our next lesson!

I have been golfing many years but not really that great. Sarah was able to identify the things that would result in the most improvement, she has tons of patience, and has a great approach. Have you ever done great when you're with the pro and then can't figure out what happened when you are on your own? Well, Sarah makes sure you know what to check so you can resolve issues on your own. I signed up for a package of lessons and can't wait until golf season.

I have had over 150 golf lessons from probably more than 15 different teaching pros over the last 30 + years and Sarah has made basic changes in my grip, ball position and club/body setup that no other pro thought was necessary.
I was not hitting my irons crisply the last 2 years and after 2 lessons with Sarah I am finally hitting the ball with compression and straighter and farther of course! Her teaching is very easy to understand and implement with practice and playing on the course. She is now my new teaching pro - I highly recommend her from beginner to low handicappers!!!

Sarah is a really good teacher, she asked me what I wanted to work on, took the time to ask me questions. More importantly, she figured out how to help me with my swing and I saw immediate results. I was very glad I made the trip to Addison to work with her.

Hi Sarah,
I wanted to let you know that the golf outing was today and I was forced to golf, and I did pretty good. Everyone was raving about how good I was playing. My putting was great and I had almost all two putts. You would have been proud. Everyone said you must have been a great teacher. So I wanted to tell you.

Wow, am I glad I was able to run into Sarah for a golf lesson. Having been through a couple before, I was a little hesitant. But Sarah is a true "instructor". She has a special skill to instruct in a way where you will be able to pick things up. I am an amateur, and a frustrated amateur that is. But with only one hour lesson with Sarah, I felt real confident and hopeful. She is friendly, patient, and very thorough. She makes things very simplistic and has a keen eye for what your swing flaws are and able to relay it to you. I definitely recommend her and I will be going back for more.

I lucked out! Finding Sarah really helped me with my golf swing. Sarah’s knowledge, professionalism, and commitment to the sport of golf would be an asset to new players or those experienced players that need help with more fully enjoying their golf game!

Sarah,
I did nine holes yesterday and had the best round ever. Six out of eight drives were straight up the fairway and the two that weren't didn't miss by much and were very playable. I concentrated primarily on the grip and the take away as I didn't want to think about everything at once. I will continue to concentrate on the bending and other pointers. You have done more for me in one hour than three other instructors have totally. I really appreciate that.
Very Kind Regards,

Sarah was excellent. Patient, clear, and helpful. I took away many good ideas on how to practice and work on improving my skills. I would recommend her to anyone.

I just wanted to share with you the results of our first lesson. Your adjustments to my grip and iron set-up have produced exciting results ! My approach shots have been spot on (no chunks or pulls) and I have found more distance on my fairway shots, especially with hybrids. Golf is starting to be fun again ! I dropped 5 strokes off of my 9 hole league average over the last 3 rounds. WOW! Thanks much for your help and I am looking forward to our next lesson.

Sarah is the best instructor that I have had the pleasure to work with. She keeps her lessons simple and makes them so easy that it is almost impossible to not understand and apply the concepts. Sarah is kind hearted, patient, and is always cheerful and smiling. When I first saw Sarah I was all over the place with my shots. Thanks to her I have dropped 20 strokes and counting. She is very reliable and willing to work with you. I had the distance she gave me the accuracy.

Sarah did a wonderful job during my lesson! I really appreciated her approach to teaching. She critiqued my golf swing in a positive and thoughtful manner. In just one lesson I took away many key findings in my swing that I know will improve my game.

I have taken lessons at numerous places before. What attracted me to Sarah was her philosophy of focusing on the fundamentals. Every other instructor was trying to get you to have the perfect swing. Well, I am 65 and active, but have limited flexibility. This was discussed with Sarah from the beginning, and she just worked with my current swing and limited flexibility to just focus on a few basic fundamental changes that have improved the consistency of my game. She is very easy to work with and a clear communicator. I would highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah was very friendly and approachable. The knowledge she shared with me about what I particularly wanted to work on was very clear and easy to understand. She has helped a great deal in improving my game!

Sarah was awesome! My chipping improved 100%. I will go back to her. If I say anymore positive things about her you may think I am a relative- I'm NOT!!! Don't underestimate a young female golf pro.

Hi Sarah,
Played 18 holes today. Got an eagle, one bird, and pared in for a 39. Started the back with two bogeys pared the rest with one bird for a 37. The swing is feeling nice, I wanted to say thanks for your help. I have never played this well so early in the season. I will definitely set up another lesson. Thanks for your help.

Sarah is knowledgeable, patient and willing to work on the parts of the game you want to work on. I liked that she didn't try and change my entire swing.

Sarah,
I can't believe how well I'm consistently hitting the ball. Your quick assessment of my golf swing and the simple corrections you gave me to improve were perfect. I will definitely be back for another lesson to keep my improved swing and stop those bad habits from creeping back.

I got a chance to work with Sarah for about two months. In that time I learned a few basic points that have seemed to help me hit much more pure shots time after time. I had a terrible time not hitting behind the ball, I did that about 50% of the time on any given day. Sarah was able to remind me where to focus, and now I've learned to hit "ball first" almost every time. My swing is for the most part more simple, balanced, and effort free. I'm very happy with my consistency and balance through each round. Sarah has made my swing much more effective. It was great to work with her!

Sarah is very knowledgeable. Being a new golfer, she broke the process of the swing down into steps. I feel like I have improved 200%. I will definitely be using her again.

I can’t say enough good things about my golf lesson experience with Sarah. I went into a series of lessons with specific goals in mind and she helped me to improve on those aspects of my swing and my game. In addition, Sarah identified areas of my swing that needed some work that I, myself, did not recognize. She also encouraged me to practice all aspects of the game to achieve a more balanced approach. The end result was an increased comfort level, especially with my woods and long irons, which has helped me to enjoy playing much more.

I watched your video on the initiation of the downswing. Your 'tips' were most useful; in fact, the most useful that I have found. Your explanation of the initiation of arms made a significant difference to my 'striking' of the ball. I have just started playing again at 65 after 20 years of not playing; I never knew what I was doing 20 years ago. Your 'tips' have lengthened and straightened my shots, on both irons and drivers. Your 'tips' were clearly presented, in a seemingly informal way, as no other video has achieved.

I had a 1 hour lesson with Sarah to address my slice. What Sarah showed me was very helpful. I shot 18 holes the next day and hit 12 of 14 fairways. Thanks again Sarah.
