Testimonials

I worked with David for 4 years as a teenager as I was developing my game. I started my golf career later than most, and David was instrumental in helping me advance my skills. During his time as my private coach, I was able to obtain multiple athletic scholarships in the United States. Specifically, most recruiting coaches gave me offers due to my clean swing and strategic approach to the game, both of which were heavily shaped by David. I ended up golfing for a NAIA university with a scholarship that covered my tuition as well as most of my living expenses. David was an excellent coach that had a positive attitude and was able to change his teaching approaches as I continued to advance in my game. I highly recommend him!

Brady was recommended to me by a friend and I am really happy that I contacted him for a lesson. After just a few swings he was able to spot a few things in my swing that could be improved. He was able to explain the changes needed in a way that was easy to visualize and to understand. He focused on one thing at a time rather than overwhelming me with too many changes at once. Brady is knowledgeable, professional and personable and I definitely plan on continuing lessons with Brady.

Nancy Scuglia

Last summer I decided to pick up golf and had trouble nailing down a successful technique for swinging my club, I had been going to Bathurst Glen driving range about 3-4 times a week for a month and I just wasn’t getting where I wanted to be. I saw that the range was affiliated with David Fritz and decided to give it a try. I have to say that I am extremely happy with the results I’ve gotten. I chose G (Gianfranco Guida) to instruct me. His description on the website seemed like he had the skills to help me get where I wanted to go and he turned out to be a great golfer and an amazing teacher. I think it was only after 3 lessons with G that I felt ready to play a round of golf and did so way less painfully than you might think. I spent most of the summer learning from him and I took a lot of what I learned with me to practice over the winter and I feel so much more confident than I would ever have without taking the lessons. For anyone thinking about picking up golf I definitely suggest at least a few lessons and if you took them with G at David Fritz’s you will not be disappointed! Also I will add that David is super nice and accommodating as far as answering questions and concerns I’ve had and G is a super cool guy. Can’t wait to take more lessons, honestly!

Laurie Whelan

Working with Gianfranco has really helped me improve my swing and my short game around the greens. I remember that I was not very consistent less than 50 yards out, and Gianfranco’s tips with how I position my feet and maintain my balance through my swing has made me more confident that I can find the shot I am looking for at that range. He explains things very well and I was able to improve quite a bit.

Adam Miceli

Gianfranco helped channel my best driver swing possible. He explained the importance of aligning my feet, shoulders, hips, and head. He helped me understand the importance of all facets of the game. Beyond my actual swing, he taught me new ways to look at the sport and some of the tricks that are behind being successful (mentality/ knowing your lies and limitations).

I have recommended him in the past and will continue to do so, as he had nothing but a positive effects on my game.

Daniel Fazari

I’ve been swinging a golf club for almost 20 years and last spring I started working with Hap Gill. I can honestly say since having him be my instrutor- that I feel like I’m playing golf with confidence and control! In a few lessons he shaved more than 10 strokes off my game by immediately recognizing some simple mistakes I was making and correcting them. Now every time I swing I follow it with a, “Wow!”

I would strongly recommend Hap Gill to any golfer, from a beginner even up to those who already play well but who still want to get better technically and be more consistent. I now hit the ball further with less effort, and have developed a solid short game.

Can’t wait to get to the next level and with Haps help, I know I will.

Conrad

So happy to have had the to opportunity to have lessons with Hap Gill over the past few months. I’ve been golfing for the last five years and needed help to improve my game. Hap is an outstanding golf instructor who patiently explains how to play and improve my game. I am 50+ and it’s hard to change old habits. Hap makes learning/relearning how to play easy. I look forward to my club opening and getting out there to practice and play at the course. I definitely know that my game will improve. Thank you Hap for putting up with me and helping me improve my game.

Robyn P

I’d just like to say that Brady is extremely patient and knowledgeable, and has helped myself and my girlfriends game exponentially. Just during 15 minutes of my last session he helped me increase my drive by 15 yards. I would highly recommend Brady, and already have to many of my friends.

Thank you,

Yianis Buzas

Hap is a great coach and I highly recommend him. Before I met Hap I had decades of bad habits and I was drowning in YouTube videos. Hap used his background in biomechanics to teach me not only how to swing but why those swing changes worked.

Hap is relatable, fun and a great cheerleader. In a relatively short time He has helped me pass my original golf goals. Working with Hap has been the best investment I’ve ever made in my golf game.

Cheers,

Ernie

I’ve been golfing for years, never took a lesson, and decided to take a lesson for fun with some friends. Now when we‘re playing golf, we still remind each other to do what Brady said! Highly recommend Brady for any level of golfer. He has a great eye & knows quick & easy strategies for improvement.
