What My Students Say
Justin is a great coach and helped make my swing become much more consistent. He is patient and simplifies concepts for you. Each step of the way, Justin will focus on how the swing feels so that the student can understand the changes. The videos that he makes after each lesson are also very helpful, as I refer back to them when I struggle. Definitely, one of the best coaches in San Diego.
I’ve found Justin to be a phenomenal instructor. I am a high handicapper and sought out Justin based on recommendations. I really like his approach to teaching, hands on instruction, video review, and coaching on the mental aspects to playing golf. Justin also is very responsive and timely in sending out recaps from training sessions; I’m usually receiving them that same day. While I still have a few “blow-up holes”, I find that when I apply the teaching that Justin has given me, I do pretty well.
Justin is fantastic; I really like his approach to tailor the lesson to the student’s golf goals and physical abilities. He’s also very good at keeping lessons focused and not changing too much every time. The prior instructor I worked with was giving me a checklist every week and it was overwhelming. Justin also very good at editing the video so that you can refresh your memory of the lesson and as a bonus the video has always been emailed to me within 24 hrs if not the same day.
Justin is a great instructor that has improved my game tremendously. After only a few lessons from Justin, I improved my golf scores by an average of 10 fewer strokes, and I’m continuing to improve… If you’re looking to improve your golf game, I highly recommend. Thanks Justin!
Justin Hicks is a great instructor. I went to him to help “fix” my driver swing. I am a lefty and was slicing the ball at my worst, and pushing far left at my best….He helped me make a variety of adjustments and then gave me a video to reference at the end of my own swing.He was professional and provided great advice and corrections the entire lesson. I have to admit I expected him to say that I would need a bunch more lessons to help “perfect” my swing, but he didn’t. It was great to work with someone who was just upfront about my game, how to improve, having fun, and you don’t have to practice like a professional to be functional.
Needless to say, 2 weeks after my lesson with him, I’m confident with my driver, can hit a baby fade or keep it straight and are hitting some bombs now. Drove a 291 green the other day, and I can tell you that wouldn’t have been possible if not for Justin Hick’s help.
If you want some straightforward help with your game, I can’t recommend Justin enough.
Justin is a terrific coach. I’ve hacked around for several years but never had much in the way of formal instruction. When I first came to Justin, it was clear that my game–such as it was–had a long way to go. But Justin started with the basics and I began to see almost immediate improvement. After just 6 lessons and a couple rounds at Balboa’s 9 hole course, I had knocked 10+ strokes off my score. Justin can help you achieve whatever level of play you seek (within reason, of course). As he says, once you’re past the basics it’s all about whether you’re happy where you are or whether you want to keep improving the more nuanced aspects of your game.
