    Lessons - West End

    So, I've given up trying to find the swing I had last year, after about a month of searching. After 6 rounds and more than 10 outings to the driving range, I'm still struggling with consistency with all parts of my swing.

    My question is what are my options for lessons in the west end, and what are your recommendations? The 19th Tee is by far the most convenient, I pass it going to and from my work every day. I've also heard good things about Kevin Haime's, which isn't onerously far. I'm looking mostly to re-learn the basics and rebuild from there, since I've clearly lost anything resembling a proper swing

    i think your best bet is KH. Worth the drive and from what I hear great instructors along with a great practice facility.....just my 2 cents.

    Dave Powell at the Marshes is excellent!

    Joe Dubinski at Kanata G&CC has been doing some great things with my swing this year. Highly recommended.

    Greg Foley is a great teacher, I'll second that.
    My name is Paul. And I'm a golfaholic.

    Yeah, I saw Joe there on Sunday. It went good. He reminded me of the stuff we went over last year. Alignment, tempo and swing thought. Did a refresh on chipping too. I'm feeling more confident on the greens.

    No doubt about it...if you like it simple, Greg Foley can keep it simple...that is what is great about him he works on what is required while keeping it simple and he concentrates on what you ask him to do work on. NO KNOWLEDGE OVERLOAD.

    Keep it simple and enjoy.


    On the flip side he is a hell of a player aswell who can work with the low cappers just as easily...that is why I like him the most.

    Good luck.

    Thanks for the replies... I have a couple options to choose from, now, and less of a pressing need to see a pro - magically my swing came back today. Apparently I should have threatened it with lessons a few weeks ago!
