"My husband, Ed, and I attended your clinic on April 25th. Your clinic
really turned my golf game around! My husband encouraged me to take up
golf about two years ago and I had been struggling with the game every
since. I knew i had the ability to play well, but could not get beyond
the mental stuff. Your Principles were exactly what I needed; I was able
to focus on my game, probably for the first time ever. We played right
after the clinic and had several stellar shots. I found that my shots
were consistently better. It was now been about 4 weeks since I took
your clinic and my score has dropped a conservative 15 strokes per game.
Without your Principles, I would never have gotten where I am. I truly
have a love for golf now. Thank you so much!!"
Lynne Cadger
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"
Carolyn LaVoy
"Insightful. Eureka!"

SENIORS
"At 74 years old, this
should have come my way many years ago. I have never hit the ball this
far ever. I added 35 yards to my drive."
Oscar Davis
"As a first-time golfer
(and recently retired), I am going to take up golf!"
Richard Staehely
"Darrin is an exceptional teacher. There
is no better, and I've been around golf 40 years."
Len Lutero
"I attended
your class on July 6th, and followed up with a round of golf the next
morning. I played with my brother and two other retired gentlemen. My
brother and I had played together 4 times in the last month with myself
being up 1 stroke in 4 rounds. He made me give up 8 stroked because of
the class, and I had no problem making these up in our match! I was
sitting 1 over par after the first 5 holes, took an 8 on #18 due to
nasty winds, and still finished with a 45 on the first 9 holes. I played
a total of 36 holes before coming back to Iowa and didn't have a 3-putt
on any of the holes, whereas I had averaged 3-4 per round before the
class. I will be recommending it to all of my friends here in Iowa!"
Bob Erb

years of golf, this was my most fabulous learning experience ever."

watching my wife improve at such an accelerated pace."

"My wife and I took your
Spirit of Golf clinic last April. Since we have gotten home I have shot
consistently in the mid to high 80's. Yesterday at our home course, I
played 9 holes and shot an even par 36! Penny has broken 100 several
times now and her 33 handicap is shrinking also. Needless to say, your
program has made a huge difference in our game and has helped us be more
focused in our lives!"
