Students Say

“There are not enough words to describe how much my game has improved thanks to Steve. The ladies’ club championship finals were held on August 19 and 20. In prior years this has been a match play event which I have lost (badly last year) in the finals. This year’s format was 36 holes of medal play and I’ve got to say I played the best golf of my life. Had we played match play we might still be at it since I won as many holes as I lost….medal play wasn’t as kind to me. I lost by 6 strokes to someone whose handicap is 8. I shot 176 for 36 holes. It was quite an accomplishment for me to play so well and I owe it to Steve’s fine instructions. I now find myself invited to member guest affairs at other golf clubs and have won three of those as well as placing third in another. My daughter also reports great improvement in her game. We will forever be disciples of the Bird Golf Academy.” Peggy Dudley Harrisville, Rhode Island Golf School: Arizona

Dear Jay, Three years ago, no-one, including myself would have believed that I would be playing golf at the level I am today. I give all the credit to your golf school and my instructor, Jim Samsing. I have gone from a best ever score of 126 (three years ago) to a personal best of 84. My accomplishments have included a Flight Championship and a Member/Member Championship at my home club but best of all, I have developed a love of and passion for-the game. While the accomplishments are mine, the credit all goes to the Bird Golf Academy. I could not have done it on my own. The beauty of the golf school is more than the desire to share your knowledge and skills with your students; it is the devotion that you give your students. Thank you for giving me this gift. Any professional can teach the skills. Few, however, can a person develop a love and passion for playing and enjoying the game. Sandy Cable Genoa Lakes, Nevada Golf School: Arizona

“I have been golfing for the past 48 years. In all that time I have never hit a draw shot off the tee, or for that matter anywhere else on the course. Inside of a couple of hours, Tim, had me drawing the ball. I feel that the three days with Tim were very rewarding. The location at Mission Inn was just perfect and please extend my thanks to Tim for improving a hacker’s golf game.” Dominic Salvino Sr. Naperville, IL Golf School: Florida

“Jay-Thank You – I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone with Bird Golf Academy for an absolutely terrific experience. I can’t imagine a better way to have been introduced to the game. Having never even held a stick before, I wasn’t sure what the week would hold or if I’d have a good time. It was without question the best vacation of my life. All the logistical details were very well handled and I couldn’t have asked for a better, more positive and patient instructor than Shirley. So, in just five days I’ve gone from someone whose favorite club was the Pink Elephant in Brussels, Belgium to someone whose favorite club is the 9 iron. I am very much looking forward to my golf journey and to future Bird Golf schools.” Greta M. Powell Lacey, WA Golf School: Arizona
