Scott Sackett: Golf Instructor: Improve Your Golf Game

Testimonials

"With the name "Shank" you get the best instruction you can! I started lessons with Scott eight (was it 10?) years ago and he's taken me from a double digit to a three. His skill at communicating the 'how' of the game into my swing has been a major factor in my improvement."

With great enthusiasm and an astonishing work ethic, Scott developed a myriad of skills in his quest to help players of all abilities find their best form and highest level of enjoyment playing the game. His knowledge of the golf swing and his appreciation of the relationship between fitness, nutrition and psychology as it applies to playing your best golf are second to no one in the business. His work ethic, energy, enthusiasm and patience have transformed hundreds of hackers into fine players."

"It has been 10 years since I started working with Scott. He has given me great insight over that time on my game. the one thing that I appreciate the most is the simplest manner that he approaches the swing. Whether were working on the full swing or the short game it is only one or two things that we tackle. The great thing is those one or two things seem to take care of the rest of the swing. With his credentials and over twenty years teaching, I am very confident that he can get your game to a point that you also will be happy with."

"There are as many personalities in golf as there are golf swings. I am continually amazed at how Scott relates to each individual player in a language that works for them to bring out the best in their game."

Jennifer Mills
Former reporter, The Golf Channel



"I like Scott's unique approach to his lessons with clients. Scott possesses incredible knowledge of not only golf swing mechanics but body mechanics as well. He realizes that everyone is different as far as body type, strength, flexibility and posture and understands that every swing is different.

He first determines whether there are any restrictions that could be causing swing flaws or potential injury with a golf evaluation. Scott then customizes a plan to overcome deficits with swing drills, exercises and education. Ultimately, the student achieves an improved golf game. With Scott it's not just a lesson, it's an educational experience."

"Scott has been a tremendous partner at the PGA Tour Golf Academy. His enthusiasm, attention to detail and charisma have been the cornerstone of making this academy and its teaching programs the tops in the country. As far as I am concerned, Scott is as good as it gets."

Rob Shults
President, Honours Golf



"Scott Sackett, like all the great teachers, makes the student comfortable with clear and simple analysis of issues. The big difference lies with his ability to isolate the one or two key elements of YOUR swing that, when changed, lead to the improvement of every thing else. The player leaves a lesson a better player than when he arrived."

Ed Gowan
Executive Director, Arizona Golf Association



"I have been working with Scott over the past three years and have found his knowledge and understanding of the golf swing to be very helpful. At the level at which I play, it is so important to understand what an instructor is trying to teach. Scott has a very good method of keeping it simple, which makes it easier to take it from the range to the course. I think Scott can help the likes of tour pros, weekend golfers or beginners."
