- SESteve EricksonNov 17, 20255.0Had a good time getting fitted for my Ping Driver and 3-Wood. Jacob took him time with me in trying various heads and shafts. It cam down to a Ping G440 Max and a Taylormade QI35 Max. While the TM was a little longer (5 yards) with better ball speed, I like the efficiency (smash factor) of the Ping better. Jacob was very patient and provide enough information and enough time for me to pick my driver and 3-wood.
- JTJack TottyNov 6, 20255.0I used to be a solid player, down to a 0.6 handicap, but completely lost my swing. After months of frustration and too many YouTube videos, a friend sent me to James Wood at Golftec Southwest. Working with James has completely changed my game. He’s helped me rebuild my swing from the ground up with real fundamentals and a repeatable motion I can trust. I’m playing confident golf again and actually having fun. Couldn’t recommend James and Golftec Southwest more.
- VMVikrant MundkurNov 6, 20255.0I’ve had an incredible experience working with James Wood at Golftec (Southwest Austin). He’s not just a great golf coach — he’s a great teacher. James breaks down the mechanics and even the physics behind the golf swing so you actually understand why you’re making a change. Each lesson builds on the last with clear, step-by-step guidance that’s easy to apply. He’s direct but funny, and he holds you accountable for practicing between sessions. I’ve seen real improvement in my swing and confidence on the course. If you’re looking for golf lessons in Austin, I can’t recommend James Wood highly enough!

How is your club fitting different from others?
Our TECFIT club fitting system provides a precision, agnostic fitting experience. All GOLFTEC Certified Fitters use our advanced launch monitor technology to measure your unique launch conditions.
