I went to Adrian Fryer in a mood of quiet desperation having spent a couple of years and many, many lessons with other pros trying to stop my game falling to bits. Scores for a typical round had gone from the mid eighties to a hundred plus and were still rising, my confidence was shot and any visit to a golf tee - particularly the 1st tee - was a cause for great anxiety as I rarely got the ball away cleanly. Golf simply wasn't enjoyable any more, it was just a continual source of frustration and disappointment.

I arrived with all this baggage and showed Adrian what was left of my swing . He immediately put me at my ease and set about helping me. After my first lesson words cannot describe the relief and the elation I felt at the improvements made to my game. It was well beyond my expectations and also my confidence was well on the way to being rebuilt. Subsequent lessons have resulted in good steady progress after each lesson and I now believe that I cannot only play to my handicap but also improve it!

Any one who plays golf knows that ingrained bad habits are hard to eradicate and it is taking time and practice to get these out of the game. It turned out that my problems started when I unwittingly strengthened my grip and then built in so many compensating errors to stop the resultant hook that it took a major miracle of hand eye coordination to actually hit a good shot!

Adrian , like any good teaching pro, has the experience and eye to identify and analyse swing faults like this. What is so special about Adrian is that he sees not only the symptoms but also the underlying cause of the problems and as a result he provides a lasting solution not some temporary quick fix. He has this ability to communicate the "feel" of a good swing. Most golfers know that the difficult thing about the golf swing is that we all confuse what we do now and feels right, with what is actually right - and that's why we don't improve.

Adrian's magic is that he tells you what is wrong and then gives you easily understandable tips and exercises so that you learn the feel of what is right and can go away and practise it until its a natural part of your swing. He makes it seem easy and gives simple to follow instructions that don't confuse or paralyse. Adrian's approach builds confidence and self belief and that means progress is rapid and the game soon becomes enjoyable again.

I went to Adrian Fryer hoping he could help me stay on the fairway and enjoy my golf again. He has done all that for me and more - I am even starting to dream I might win the odd club competition in the summer!
