Cincinnati Instructor

[Booker_T]

Does anyone have any recommendations and experience with coaches in the Cincinnati area?

Some background, I played off/on after college and picked it back up in 2021 playing weekly and going on several trips.  In April, I took ~10 lessons at GolfTec to nail down the fundamentals of a swing.

 

When I started tracking my handicap last year I was around 32-35.  Since then I've gotten down to a consistent 25.  Since April, I've been using Arccos to better track the portions of my game I've been struggling with.  By far, the worst portion of my game is 100 to 200 yard approach shots with irons.  

 

Driving distance is ~250-280 yards and fairly consistent. Short game is ~6 handicap and putting is ~3 handicap as well.  With the exception of my driver, all of my clubs were not fit and I really just took a shot in the dark with what I'd played from friends' bags. 

 

Goals: Shoot ~80.  I'm a pretty casual golf that just likes to have fun, don't take it too seriously but just want to generally get better.

I would imagine the person at the Cincinnati Miles of Golf location would be pretty good, the instructors at the Michigan location are exceptional.

Congratulations on dropping about 10 strokes off your handicap!  Seems like you made some nice progress with your time from GolfTEC!
