Great experience working with Chris Brown. I’ve seen steady improvement after each lesson. He really breaks down in terms i can understand and gives me clear goals to work on.

Last year, my wife and I were playing in a foursome with another golfer. He had a full array of shots and an effortless swing. In the conversation on the round, we asked him 'how long have you been playing?' He said 'a year and a half'..... we about fell down. He said he had been taking lessons at GOLFTEC and that it really worked for him. Within a week, my wife and I tracked down his instructor and bought a lesson package. Wow. Our instructor Steve Montalto, has worked with us on many of the aspects of our games from our swings to the correct way to use our clubs. Honestly, I don't even recognize our games now. The environment at GOLFTEC isn't intimidating, the technology is simple and easy to employ. If you want gain in your game, the money and effort will transform how you play. Would recommend GOLFTEC without reservation.

Encinitas ranch is a beautiful location and has great views of the ocean. I like to use a golf tee on the driving range however that's rather difficult because they have the artificial turf there. They do have a large putting practice area but it is very undulated
