Private Lessons & Coaches in Pinole, CA

Hi, I'm Eric, and I grew up playing golf in the SF Bay Area over 40 years ago. I have a passion and true love for the game ever since I set foot on my first golf course at age 9. I have played in local tournaments and played golf competitively for several years. I have lots of patience, I'm laid back, and I really enjoy teaching. I work with all ages and skill levels. Reach out to me to find out if I'm a good fit for you.

"Eric is exactly the kind of instructor an intermediate player needs. He is patient, encouraging, and great at breaking things down so they actually stick. He fixed issues with my swing that I didn't even know I had, and I left every lesson striking the ball better than I thought possible. Can't recommend him enough! -Ryan
