Very knowledgeable and helpful cut my driver and made me a custom grip with a 48 hours turnaround!Posted on Google Billy EsslingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went to Nassau Golf looking for a new shaft for my three wood. Met Robert & he installed a new shaft/grip with in a day. His knowledge is beyond impressive & he has helped me tremendously with perfecting my swing. As most golfers know, your swing is the most impactful skill of the game. I highly recommend talking a lesson! Not only will your swing improve, you will be taught by a skilled professional in the field. Robert’s teaching is top notch!Posted on Google Ambar KeluskarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took a 30 minute lesson today at Nassau Golf with Robert. It was a great experience and reasonably priced, especially considering the high quality of instruction. I am a beginner golfer. I just started two months ago. I love the sport, but I could tell I was not getting anywhere by just following youtube tutorials and hitting hundreds of balls. I have a lot of swing faults, but I was really struggling with how to stand at address, backswing position, and how to start the downswing. After watching one practice swing, Robert picked up on all of that and got to work on helping me fix it. I look forward to practicing what he taught me and coming back for another lesson.Posted on Google Frank MacchiaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service! One day turn around on a club repair and regrip. Highest recommendation 👌Posted on Google Etan BenishayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are looking for a swing doctor, Rob is your guy! His insight into the little things that build the picture of a great golf swing are second to none and he is skilled at conveying these idea to his students. His focus on perfection had me leaving the lesson with takeaways that have improved my distance, accuracy, and have made the game easier! Not to mention, his setup at Nassau Golf's shop is one to be envied by any dedicated golfer. I hope to visit the shop again soon and work on my swing some more with Rob's expert guidance!Posted on Google Everett KatzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert helped me pick out the perfect shaft for my driver (one which he created) and helped me stay tall on my drives. His grips are perfect and top of the line. The installment for my clubs only took 1-2 days and I was very satisfied with everything he was able to help me with!Posted on Google Jason SteinmannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had all my clubs regripped with their tour pro grips. Can’t say enough, done in a day, great price and the feel of the grips is unbelievable.Posted on Google Rich CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the second set of CBI irons from Nassau Golf, gotten a little older and got a set made with graphite shafts…They hit better than my original set, glad I went back…Posted on Google Luke GiordanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came in to update my driver shaft from a beginner flex. It was clear this shop is unique and the only one run by a PGA renowned club engineer. Bob was ready to check out my swing and see what I needed, fitting me with a quality shaft, length and grip to my liking with consideration for my budget. He also gave me some needed swing tips that added distance right away, after getting used to those with the new driver I've been hitting some personal best tee shots. I'll be back in for a lesson and any equipment upgrades in the future.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Golf Coach Great River NY
Proven Expertise You Can Trust
We’ve been helping golfers in Great River and throughout Nassau County build lasting skills for years. Robert brings patented golf innovations and expertise that’s been featured on ESPN, ABC, and in major golf publications.
What sets us apart is our approach. We don’t just tell you what you’re doing wrong – we show you why it’s happening and give you the tools to fix it yourself.
Great River golfers choose us because they know we understand the local courses and conditions. Whether you’re preparing for Timber Point or any of the other excellent tracks in Nassau County, we’ll prepare you for real course situations.
Swing Mechanics Instruction Process
Simple Steps to Better Golf
Your first lesson starts with watching you hit a few balls so we can see what you’re working with. No judgment – just honest assessment of where you are and where you want to go.
We’ll identify the one or two things that will make the biggest difference in your game. Not a laundry list of changes, but the fundamentals that actually matter.
You’ll practice the new movements with immediate feedback. We use video analysis when it helps, but mostly it’s about you feeling the difference and understanding why it works. By the end of your first lesson, you’ll be hitting the ball better and you’ll know exactly what to practice.

Player Development Great River
Complete Game Development
Your lessons cover everything that actually affects your scores. Full swing mechanics, short game, putting, and course management – because great golf isn’t just about hitting it far.
We also handle equipment fitting right here in Great River. If your clubs aren’t properly fitted, you’re fighting an uphill battle. We’ll make sure your equipment is working with you, not against you.
Nassau County golfers face unique challenges with our coastal winds and varying course conditions. We prepare you for the real conditions you’ll face at Bethpage, Eisenhower Park, and all the other quality tracks in our area.
How quickly will I see improvement in my golf swing?
Most students notice better ball striking during their very first lesson. The key is focusing on one or two fundamental changes that make the biggest impact rather than trying to fix everything at once.
Real improvement happens when you understand why the changes work, not just how to make them. That’s why we spend time explaining the mechanics behind each adjustment.
Within three to four lessons, you should have a clear understanding of your swing fundamentals and be able to practice effectively on your own. The timeline depends on your current skill level and how often you practice, but consistent improvement is the goal from day one.
Do you teach beginner golfers or just experienced players?
We work with golfers at every level, from complete beginners to experienced players looking to break through plateaus. Beginners actually have an advantage because they haven’t developed bad habits yet.
For new golfers, we focus heavily on grip, setup, and basic swing mechanics. These fundamentals are crucial because they’re much harder to change later if you learn them wrong from the start.
Experienced players often need different approaches – sometimes it’s fixing one specific issue that’s been holding them back, sometimes it’s course management or short game work. Every lesson is tailored to what you need most right now.
What makes your teaching different from other golf instructors?
We focus on understanding rather than just copying positions. When you know why something works, you can make adjustments on the course instead of falling apart when things go wrong.
Our approach combines proven fundamentals with custom equipment fitting. Many swing problems are actually equipment problems in disguise. We can spot these issues and fix them on-site.
You’ll also get honest feedback without the sugar-coating. If something isn’t working, we’ll tell you and show you a better way. Great River golfers appreciate straight talk and practical solutions that actually work.
How do you help with course management and strategy?
Course management is often overlooked but can drop strokes immediately without changing your swing. We teach you how to play within your abilities and make smart decisions that keep you out of trouble.
This includes club selection, reading course conditions, and understanding when to be aggressive versus when to play it safe. Nassau County courses like Timber Point and Bethpage have specific challenges that we prepare you for.
We also work on pre-shot routines and mental preparation. Golf is as much mental as physical, and having a solid routine helps you stay consistent even when the pressure is on.
Can you help with my short game and putting?
Short game instruction is a huge part of what we do because that’s where most golfers can improve their scores fastest. Chipping, pitching, and bunker play require different techniques than full swings.
We work on distance control, trajectory options, and reading greens. The goal is giving you multiple ways to get the ball close to the hole from around the green, regardless of the lie or conditions.
Putting instruction focuses on consistent stroke mechanics and green reading. We’ll help you develop a routine that works under pressure and teach you how to read the subtle breaks common on Long Island greens.
What should I expect from my first golf lesson?
Your first lesson starts with a conversation about your goals and what’s been frustrating you most about your game. Then we’ll watch you hit some shots to see your current swing and identify the biggest opportunities for improvement.
We’ll work on one or two key fundamentals during that first session. You won’t leave overwhelmed with a dozen things to remember – just clear understanding of what to work on and why it matters.
By the end of the lesson, you should be hitting the ball more consistently and have a practice plan for the coming weeks. We’ll also discuss whether your equipment is helping or hurting your progress.
