  I decided to take up golfing about a year ago so I could golf with my friends. I never really golfed before in my life, with the exception of a few times in my teens. Being a first time golfer at 65 is overwhelming. Any golfer knows the sport is comprised of multiple decisions/actions that dictate how well you play. Missing any one of these items during your swing can result in your shot going everywhere except where you wanted it to go. With this in mind, after looking at numerous other options, I decided to come to GOLFTEC. It was during my initial swing analysis appointment that I met my coach Robert Okynio. I am sure what he saw in my swing frightened him, but he made me feel like there was hope. He has a calm personality with the right amount of humor and encouragement to keep me going. I am starting my second year with Robert as my coach. My golfing friends continue to notice the improvement in my game and frequently comment on my performance. I attribute this all to Robert as he has, and continues, to guide me forward. He works with my limitations and helps me overcome these shortcomings. My swing may never be pretty but I am no longer afraid to stand at the first tee and hit my drive. I would also like to acknowledge the other coaches I have met at GOLFTEC Walnut Creek . I come in for an hour of practice on Saturday mornings. Steve Kuzmic has always been friendly and wiling to help out anyway he can. Recently Corey Davis has been in on Saturdays and they both check in on me to make sure I have everything that I need. I have had limited interactions with Matt Plumlee but they have always been positive interactions. Without GOLFTEC and especially the crew in Walnut Creek, I might not be golfing (it's difficult to call myself a 'golfer') and without Robert I would not be enjoying this sport as much as I am.

  Robert at Golftec is awesome. Very positive, patient, and knowledgeable. He helped me build a foundation of skills that I can use to build a great golf swing with. Thanks for everything Robert!!

  When I started lessons at Golftec, I had never legitimately broken 100. I now have an index of 13-14, and have broken 80 4 times thanks to Matt. He is very patient with my repeated recurrence of swing faults and has helped me tremendously.
