Bob Buckingham:  When I first started golf instruction with Justin a few years ago, I was struggling to break 100 and golf was not very much fun. I went from a 24+ handicap to a 16 after year one, a 12 after year 2, and am currently a 10. In addition, I broke 80 for the first time and now regularly shoot in the low 80’s. Thanks to Justin, golf is fun again and I have gained extensive knowledge about the golf swing, short game and mental game.

     Jon Benumof: Justin Hicks was recommended to me by another golfer sincerely interested in getting better.
From the moment I met Justin I knew I had a teacher who was dedicated, interested, engaged, and cared about what he was doing; i.e., helping me.When I first started taking lessons, my average score was between 105-110 and after taking lessons on the full swing and short game with a lot of personalized and overtime attention, my score dropped all the way down to between 85-90. That is so great and better yet, “The Source” is always here

     John Watters: We first brought our son, Chris, to Justin in early 2002. Chris had junior golf experience but had never worked with an instructor on his swing and approach to the game. We quickly realized we were very fortunate to find Justin. He is a fabulous coach who is able to convey his approach to the golf swing in easy to understand methods. Perhaps the most impressive part of Justin’s approach was the he didn’t change Chris’s swing all in one attempt. He took his time and adjusted Chris gradually so that he could continue to compete without going backwards. Justin has worked with Chris to produce a swing that can compete at the highest levels. We continue to send Chris to Justin on a regular basis. We have recommended several others who have gone on to work with Justin, including Chris’s high school coach and golf team. We strongly recommend Justin to anyone, regardless of skill level.

     Peter Opsal: Until I took lessons from Justin Hicks, I was hopelessly trying to play golf without much success of enjoyment. Justin started with the fundamentals and taught me how to develop my swing. As a professional, he knows the game which he masterfully applies to his instruction. Taking lessons from Justin enabled me to improve my game, raise my confidence, and lower my handicap. I now have a chance at a respectable score and a much more enjoyable time of the golf course.

     Gloria Sanchez: Just writing you a quick note to thank you for the amazing results I have received this past year under your instruction. As you know, when I began taking lessons from you, my handicap was 28 and 1 year later, my handicap is 13. Not only have you drastically improved my swing techniques but also, more importantly, I now have a heightened understanding of swing mechanics which allow me to self diagnose my swing flaws. I really appreciate your patience and clarity in your teaching style and your ability to pinpoint and adapt to my learning abilities. I consider myself a combination of a “feel” and “mechanical” player; I like to learn cause and effect/understand mechanics and ingrain them through feel. You have done an exceptional job at identifying my learning strengths and incorporating various methods to effectively communicate. Your extensive use of video clips with personal demonstration have taught me mechanics while your use of such props as a hula hoop, racquetball racquet, and mirror have reinforced mechanics through feel. I believe that the combination of video clips, personal demonstration, and your clever use of props have elevated my learning retention and has allowed me to more quickly learn the proper swing techniques.  I look forward to working with you and am very excited of the possibilities of where we can take my game.
