- VPVik PatelNov 6, 20255.0I'm new to golf and was pretty skeptical about Golftec, but I was matched with Austin Aviza who is an incredible teacher and have been really happy with my experience. The data, stats, and insights are pretty incredible, and with Austin guiding the process my game has progressed way more rapidly than I could've even hoped. If you're lucky enough to get on his schedule I highly recommend this location and working with him!
- AWAlec WinstonSep 25, 20255.0Decided to switch things up from my usual spots like Golf Galaxy or PGA Superstore and came here instead to get fit for a new club. I was in the market for a driver and wanted to feel confident in the investment. After browsing around I liked the look of how data driven and personalized the reviews I read about GolfTec were. In the end, I couldn’t be happier with how the process went and the final result. I booked a time online and worked with Jack K for my fitting. He walked me through plenty of options and combinations to test and compare, and I was pleasantly surprised when I ended up purchasing a driver that wasn’t even on my radar but clearly delivered the best results. Jack made the session easy and enjoyable, and I’ll definitely be coming back here the next time I’m looking to get fit for a new club in the bag!
- WSWill SSep 22, 20255.0I took lessons with Jon Bellotti and he’s fantastic, I cannot recommend him as a coach enough. This year was my first full season playing and first time taking lessons. I started as total novice just taking up the game and shooting in the 120s. There was clearly a lot to work on but Jon was patient, clear, and set out a path for how I could get to where I wanted. He was able to help me make vast improvements in all areas of my game and get me from shooting in the 120s and barely able to make contact, to shooting a personal best 100 recently. While I am still trying to reach my main goal of breaking 100, I know I am well on my way and Jon (and Golftec) are 100% the main reason for that. Aside from that, the location and bays are well kept and all of the other staff I’ve interacted with were always very nice and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Jon and Golftec to anyone looking to improve their game.
- BNBen NicholsonSep 18, 20255.0I have been working with Austin and it has been a really rewarding experience, this is also why I have continued to stay his client. Austin has this way of connecting and genuinely helping with each complexity of the golf swing. He does a great job of tailoring tips and feels in a personal way that is easy to understand and implement drills to improve. The golf swing is different to each individual and he has been patient, determined and kind to help me truly improve - I have gone in one summer from a 21 hdcp to a 13 and looking to drop down to single digits next year. You do not just feel like just another client to him - going from putting Golftec in your calendar to Austin lesson is when you realize you have built something really cool. I know he does this for his other students because I see and hear it when I stop in for practice. He genuinely cares about your tangible improvement as does the rest of the staff at Halsted Row. I will continue to keep my game plans in order to reach my goals and I have zero doubt I will get there with Austin's help. I could not recommend him specifically or any other coach at Golftec Halsted Row. They should be commended on the great environment they have built for clients trying to improve at such a difficult game.
- DHDaniel HickeySep 15, 20255.0I worked with Maxwell Evans and had a wonderful experience - easily worth the cost and wouldn’t hesitate to re-up as necessary. He is very thoughtful and well prepared; you get a lot of your time with him. He speaks in terms that are easily digestible and is very patient. He made the lessons fun and not frustrating - and led to major improvements in my game. A full endorsement.
