    After trying on my own to fix my swing for over two years, I finally got to the point where I told myself I either needed to sell my clubs or get lessons. After only three sessions with Jim, I just posted my best round in over a year. The video analysis he provided of my swing at the start was very helpful. His instruction style is straightforward and easy to understand. And the practice facility at Pendleton is top notch. Thanks Jim!

    I stumbled upon Jim Mason while checking out Pendelton Golf Club on the internet. Jim offered a one-time lesson that included a video of my swing. I thought that would be beneficial, and it was. However, the lesson itself was terrific, so I subsequently scheduled a 3-lesson package. Jim's analysis, expertise and teaching style was exactly what I needed to correct a few errors in my swing. I appreciated the simplicity of his teaching style. He patiently analyzed each swing and did not overload me with "technique." His feedback was 100% on target. I have hit the ball straight (one of my goals) since that first lesson. Jim taught me how to analyze my swing errors based on the ball's trajectory and its outcome. This has proved to be invaluable at the range and on the course. I am so glad I "accidentally" discovered Jim. He has a wealth of knowledge which he freely shares. Because my career/educational/teaching background is motor skills learning, I can, with good authority, recommend Jim as an outstanding golf skills teacher. He really "meets" the student on their level. The introductory reduced-price lesson is an invaluable way to try Jim out. If you are looking for a good teacher, you will return.

    Let me just preface this review by letting you all know that before my lessons with Jim, I had never used a golf club in my life. When we began lessons, we had to go all the way down to the basics because he was teaching someone brand new to the game. I am so happy I chose to get lessons from Jim, because man have I come so far since that first lesson! In just 4 lessons, I went from a complete beginner to someone who can now play 18 holes, while still having fun!

    Jim did such an amazing job by specializing on the different parts of the game for each lesson so I could focus on fine tuning my form and learning each part of the game. Not only is Jim so knowledgeable about the game, but you could tell he actually wanted to be out there teaching. It’s not everyday you find someone that is that knowledgeable who also has a passion for teaching others. He was always so upbeat and positive during the lessons, which really helped motivate me and get me through some of the mental blocks that come along with golfing.

    If you’re looking for an instructor, look no further than Jim Mason Golf Academy! You will not be disappointed!

    I cannot thank Jim enough for getting me to where I am today.

    I have worked with Jim Mason for 3 golf seasons. When I was looking for instruction, I wanted someone who had felt the fire and pressure of playing in competition. Jim’s tour exposure fit that bill. His golf instruction has been wonderful. He has helped me return to form after an extended golf absence due to illness.

    We started by using his video system and analyzing my swing. This helped us determine where I needed to make swing adjustments and improvements. We developed a swing plan and worked on all aspects of my swing from full swing to putting. He is flexible with scheduling as I am driving from the West End of Richmond to work with him. He demonstrates and explains things clearly and concisely. He is friendly and patient as we make swing adjustments. I could not recommend Jim more highly and remain one of his students today. Working with Jim can help improve or recover your game. A big thumbs up here.

    As an added bonus, the practice facility at Pendelton Golf Club is superb. This facilitates improvement as well.

    Jim Mason is the BEST golf instructor. I recommend anyone who is considering lessons, no matter your skill level, to schedule time with him. His love for teaching the game of golf is apparent through his coaching techniques, calm demeanor, and reinforcing fist bumps. My tempo, form, and distance have significantly improved after only a handful of lessons. While I may appear frustrated at times (golf does that to ya) he is always ready to remind me of Rule #1: Have fun! He credits his students for their individual successes, but it is due mostly to his amazing coaching.
