Testimonials…

Interested in picking up golf, and knowing little to nothing of the game, I researched multiple locations and PGA professionals in the Boston area. After weighing multiple factors including quality of the facility, convenience and most importantly the pro, Big Sticks was by far the best option.
In November 2011 I started taking lessons from Terry with the lofty goal of being able to play a few rounds of golf on Hawaii’s premier courses that coming February. For four months I took lessons from Terry and practiced at the Big Sticks facility. Terry taught me the key fundamentals, which allowed me to significantly improve my game, diagnose and correct issues with my swing and as a women, confidently play 18 holes on the best of courses. Thanks to Terry, I’ve even received compliments on my swing from complete strangers!
I highly recommend Big Sticks, whether you are a beginner, need to correct a nagging slice or want to stay on top of your game over the winter months.
– Jennifer J.

I found Big Sticks in September of 2012. I had taken a 5 year break from golf to figure life out and recover from 2 major lower back surgeries. I assumed it would be like riding a bike again, but boy was I wrong. Terry diagnosed my major flaws right away and helped build a plan to get me back on track. Utilizing the Big Sticks Academy I got back to a 2 handicap in only 8 months. If you are a golfer looking for a place to work on your game in a friendly professional environment, there is no better set-up! I toyed around with another local place and some semi-private clubs with golf simulators–but didn’t really feel like I was welcome. From the minute I started working with Terry, it felt like a friendship. I challenge you to find a better value than what you get from the Big Sticks facility, I know I failed. Terry has two camera’s, 3 simulators/ball flight monitors, every golf training device you could think of, and a community of serious golfers looking to improve their game. It honestly doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or an advanced golfer, you are welcome at Big Sticks!

As a professional golfer and one with many course records, I wanted to say that Terry has helped me with indentifying key components of my swing that have resulted in major improvements in my game. He really is a fantastic coach and has an eye to notice the delicate flaws that professionals can have come onto them without warning. I would recommend Terry and his facilities to anyone looking to either drop a few strokes, or 2 dozen strokes of their game.
