Jonathan Smith Golf Academy

He quickly spotted that I was lifting and swaying during my downswing, and also showed me that I need to keep my sternum centered over the ball. After my second lesson, I was able to drive the ball 176 yards — a new personal best. ================ 11/21/25 ======== Today we focused on developing more power and speed with the driver. We spent time practicing with the smash bag to reinforce proper impact position and to help me feel a stronger, more efficient strike. Jonathan also reviewed video of my swing to explain why my right arm needs to come down more on plane during the transition and downswing. This gave me a clearer understanding of how that adjustment will improve both consistency and ball flight.

I highly recommend Jon Smith Golf Instruction. He does an incredible job working with your current swing, preserving what’s already working while focusing on the areas that may be holding you back from your goals. I was initially worried that starting lessons would mean going back to square one and getting worse before I got better, but that was not the case. Jon builds on your existing strengths and makes improvements feel achievable from day one. Golf is humbling, but having a coach who tailors each lesson to your specific needs and reinforces progress with targeted exercises and drills between sessions makes all the difference. Between the lessons, the training tools, the workouts, and the weekly exercises, it is well worth the cost and a great value considering everything he offers. Jon delivers that level of personalized, results driven coaching. The convenience of the indoor facility is second to none. Being able to fit sessions into my busy schedule without worrying about weather, tee times, or privacy has been a game changer.

Jonathan is an excellent trainer! He’s very detailed in his instruction and makes sure you understand every part of your swing and technique. His patience and ability to break things down step by step really helped me improve. Great experience all around
