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 Lesson Process Islip Terrace
How We Build Better Golfers
Every golfer learns differently, so we start by understanding how you process information best—whether you learn by hearing explanations, seeing demonstrations, or feeling the correct positions.
First, we analyze your current swing mechanics, identifying the root causes of inconsistency rather than just treating symptoms. We look at your grip, posture, swing plane, and timing to understand what’s working and what needs adjustment.
Then we develop a personalized improvement plan using proven fundamentals. We focus on one key element at a time, ensuring each change becomes natural before adding the next layer. This prevents overwhelming you with too many swing thoughts while building lasting muscle memory.
Throughout the process, we teach you how to self-diagnose and fix common problems that arise during play. The goal isn’t just better practice sessions—it’s the confidence to handle any situation on the course.

Complete Golf Instruction Program
Everything You Need to Improve
Our golf instruction covers every aspect of the game, from full swing mechanics to short game precision. We work on grip fundamentals, proper posture, swing plane development, and the kinematic sequence that creates power and consistency.
Long Island golfers face unique challenges with varying course conditions and weather patterns throughout the year. We incorporate these local factors into our instruction, teaching you how to adapt your swing for firm summer conditions and softer spring play.
Each lesson includes swing analysis using proven teaching methods, personalized drills you can practice at home, and clear explanations of why each adjustment matters. We also cover course management strategies specific to popular local courses, helping you make smarter decisions that lower your scores immediately.
Whether you’re struggling with a slice, inconsistent contact, or simply want to add distance, our systematic approach addresses the mechanical causes while building the confidence that comes from understanding your swing.
How long does it take to see improvement in my golf swing?
Most golfers notice immediate improvements in ball contact and consistency within the first lesson when we address fundamental setup issues like grip and posture. These changes often produce better shots right away because they allow your natural swing to work more efficiently.
For lasting swing changes that become automatic, expect 4-6 lessons over 6-8 weeks. This timeline allows you to practice each adjustment between lessons and develop the muscle memory that makes improvements permanent. We focus on one key element at a time to prevent confusion and ensure each change sticks.
The golfers who improve fastest are those who practice the specific drills we assign between lessons. We provide clear practice routines that reinforce the changes we’re making, so your improvement continues even when you’re not taking lessons.
What's the difference between golf lessons and just practicing more?
Practice without proper instruction often reinforces the same mistakes that are causing your problems. You can hit hundreds of balls, but if your grip or swing plane is fundamentally flawed, you’re just grooving bad habits deeper.
Professional golf instruction identifies the root causes of your swing issues and provides the specific corrections needed to fix them. We teach you what to feel, what to look for, and how to recognize when you’re doing it correctly. This targeted approach makes every practice session productive.
Most importantly, we teach you how to diagnose and fix problems when they arise during your round. Instead of hoping your swing works, you’ll understand why it works and how to get back on track when something goes wrong.
Do you work with beginners or just experienced golfers?
We work with golfers at every level, from complete beginners to experienced players looking to break through scoring plateaus. Beginners actually have an advantage because they haven’t developed compensations and bad habits that need to be unlearned.
For new golfers, we focus on building proper fundamentals from day one—grip, posture, alignment, and basic swing mechanics. This foundation prevents the common mistakes that plague self-taught golfers and creates a solid base for long-term improvement.
Experienced golfers often need more specific adjustments to fix ingrained patterns. We analyze what’s working in your current swing and make targeted changes that improve consistency without completely rebuilding your technique. Every golfer’s needs are different, and our instruction adapts accordingly.
How do you help golfers who have tried lessons before without success?
Many golfers have had disappointing lesson experiences because they received generic advice that didn’t match their learning style or physical capabilities. We start by understanding how you learn best and what approaches have or haven’t worked for you in the past.
Our instruction focuses on building a systematic understanding of your swing rather than just giving you positions to copy. We explain why each change matters and how it connects to better ball striking. This understanding helps the improvements stick and gives you confidence in what you’re doing.
We also teach practical on-course skills that many instruction programs ignore. You’ll learn how to warm up effectively, how to make mid-round adjustments, and how to practice efficiently. These skills often make the biggest difference in actual scoring, not just range performance.
What should I expect during my first golf lesson?
Your first lesson begins with a conversation about your golf goals, current frustrations, and what you’d like to improve most. We want to understand your experience level and what success looks like to you.
We’ll watch you hit several shots with different clubs to assess your current swing mechanics, ball striking patterns, and setup fundamentals. This analysis helps us identify the most important areas for improvement and develop a personalized plan that addresses your specific needs.
You’ll leave the first lesson with 1-2 specific things to work on, clear practice drills, and a better understanding of why your swing produces the ball flights you’re seeing. We focus on changes that will make an immediate positive impact while setting the foundation for long-term improvement.
How often should I take golf lessons to see consistent improvement?
Most golfers see the best results with lessons every 2-3 weeks, allowing time to practice and integrate changes between sessions. This schedule prevents information overload while maintaining momentum in your improvement process.
Taking lessons too frequently doesn’t allow enough time for muscle memory to develop, while spacing them too far apart can lead to reverting to old habits. The 2-3 week interval gives you time to work on assigned drills and experience how the changes feel during actual play.
During peak improvement phases, some golfers benefit from weekly lessons for 4-6 weeks, then transition to maintenance sessions every month or two. We’ll recommend the optimal schedule based on your goals, practice frequency, and how quickly you’re integrating changes.
