I was delighted to win the Links Golf School competition this year. Having posted the score in April I was surprised it was not improved upon throughout the remainder of the year. I have attended Links Golf School annually over the last four years during which time my handicap has reduced from a beginner’s handicap of 28 to my current handicap of 16. On each visit to the Golf School under your tuition I have learnt something new and re-visited aspects of my swing which needed improvement incorporating these into my game has helped me gain confidence in my ability to achieve my golfing ambitious and enabled me to derive more understanding and pleasure from my golfing performance. This year my wife Wendy joined me for the first time at golf school. She too was surprised and delighted at the progress made during the tree days and has subsequently reduced her handicap from 29 to 26 this year. We both look forward to seeing you next year.

Thank you so much for a very enjoyable four days with you. We have arrived home exhausted but feel we have learnt a lot. From the readings on my pedometer I walked 27.24 miles – took 59,517 steps and used up 2,587 calories – no wonder we were tired!! Thanks once again for your help and advice.

P.S. I thought you would like to know that yesterday whilst playing at Etchinghill with David I had a hole in one!

Though I would drop you a line to let you know how things re going after the 3 day clinic.
I have been working on the turning away drill that you got me started on during the coaching and it’s been working fantastically.

I am enjoying my golf now like never before. Never mind the distance I have gained (I still get surprised every now and again by the distance I hit my irons) but my consistency has changed dramatically. Where as before I could count the good shots on one hand and the bad were never counted, I hardly ever hit a completely ‘diabolical’ shot anymore.

I will keep working on the turn and keep you updated. I am looking forward to returning for some more help in the near future, I think the short game needs some work now; in truth I have been neglecting it. There are some corporate golf days and competitions coming up that I have entered so I am hoping to get the old handicap down to below 10.
Thank you once again, my confidence has grown and I feel like a golfer now.

At the risk of appearing boastful but because I enjoy hearing how past pupils progress, thank you for the last 3 day courses I have been on for the last 3 years at Easter time.

The first year I had only just bought clubs 6 months before so as a raw beginner went home and managed to get a 44 handicap during the season.

The second year I went back to win the most improved handicap (we have between 100 and 200 lady members) and the Stableford final.

This, the third, I have played for the team once when they were desperate, won the Lady Captains Day and the longest drive, it is not so much the winning but the pleasure of doing well enough to join in everything and make lots of new friends who need a partner.

Best Wishes and Many Thanks

I would like to thank you very much for your 4 day course, since I completed your tuition I have completed your tuition I have finished second in the monthly medal and rarely slice the ball anymore and certainly hit the ball further.

I also now feel when I make a bad shot, I have a little insight into what I am doing wrong and I’m able to go back to the basics to get it right.

Thanks

I felt I had to write to say thank you for your golf school tuition in June. I have just won my clubs monthly medal with a net 65 and my son has now had his handicap cut from 19 to 15 since attending your course.

I look forward to attending a school next year.

Many thanks

I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for a very enjoyable three days at the North Shore Links and Elms Golf Centre recently.

I feel that I benefited a great deal from your expert tuition over this period and thoroughly enjoyed playing the links course with my fellow student, and of course Trevor.

Shall I return this year, hopefully with a number of colleagues to spend another three or four days with your school.

We sincerely thank you for the contortions you have put us through!
We don’t believe any of us will suffer any permanent physical damage but we all will have gained from your excellent tuition.
We hope you have enjoyed us as much as we have enjoyed you!

Now that I’ve caught my breath I though I’d drop you a quick note to say how grateful I am for another very enjoyable and successful trip. Once again the feedback from the boys has been tremendous. All feel they have improved their game and moreover, did so in a very agreeable fashion.

They were very impressed with the coaching they received and all relished the challenge of the North Shore course, even those that were rather shy of it at times. My colleague John Vincent is in a better position than me to judge such things and he too feels he and the boys have come away better players and with increased appetite for the game.

The whole broader experience has proven to be a very worthwhile one too. The accommodation and location and all the non-golfing aspects these addressed were very good indeed. I hope we gave a good account of ourselves and that you feel the same sense of achievement and fulfilment that we do!

Please pass on my gratitude to John as well. Thank you once again- we’ll be in touch.

Yours sincerely
