Mike has helped me overcome a lot of issues in my swing. I am still pretty new to golf, but Mike is great, no matter the skill level. The Lag Master was super helpful in developing what lag actually feels like. It's hard to describe something, and sometimes searching for a certain feeling can get frustrating. The Lag Master cuts the middle man out, and goes right to how lag should feel in a swing.

Great guy
great lesson
great results

Played 18 afterwards….

Turned my swing into…. Well, a REAL golf swing!!!

Will rebook again….

Worth every dollar!

Very thorough analysis of my swing and decisive about changes I need to make . Now it’s on me !

I was struggling w/my golf after being away from the sport for the last 13 years. I have only worked w/Mike fir three lessons, but what a difference. He’s worked on my club grip, my balance, my pivot and my swing. I have so much more confidence going out to practice or play 9 holes w/my friends. He’s awesome.
Five stars.

Working with Mike has been very enlightening. He was the first instructor to ever talk to me about body and swing types.

Great Instructor, personalized intsruction which always magically corrrects any issue within 3-5 swings

Mike is the man! Super knowledgeable and makes things easy to understand!

In my very first lesson, I learnt a lot from Michael. I was doing all wrong and Mike corrected with ease. Thank you Michael

Coach Mike is a great teacher! After one session, I already felt big improvements to my swing and a number of key things to focus on to continually improve. In addition, my daughter's been taking classes for over a month now and her swing and overall approach is on another level since when she started. Coach Mike is very personable and explains things in a way where it's easy to understand and apply. Definitely recommend and will be taking more lessons in the future!

Mike is a great teacher who combines a deep understanding of the golf swing with a great ability to demonstrate and communicate.

Mike and I started working together at the beginning of this year and I couldn't be happier with the progress. The two main backgrounds that I was looking for with a new coach was Aimpoint and biodynamics.

Aimpoint has really taught me how to read greens and now I am sinking putts out 10-15 feet pretty much every round.

As for his understanding of biodynamics, it has helped me figure out my swing and what I should be doing because of how my body is built and how it moves. I couldn't recommend anything more important then to work with a coach who understands this. My contact is so good now.

The last thing I want to touch on is Mike will record different videos for you throughout the lesson so you can review them later via the CoachNow app. If you want something specifically recorded he has always done that for me too. Having videos to review the topics discussed during a lesson is a great reminder on what to work on for the next one.

Fantastic! Better than expected. Looking forward to a long sustainable coaching partnership and relationship.

Honestly did the Golftec and other coaches route and really didn't understand why it wasn't working til lessons with Mike Dickson. He will create a custom approach to your specific swing and does a excellent job of breaking down things in a easy to understand way. If you're serious about getting better, give Mike a shout.

I had my first lesson with Mike today. He is very engaging and is seems to be very knowledgeable about all aspects of the golf swing. I liked that he had some simple teaching tools to help me remember when I should chip or putt. He also offered ways that I can check my posture to make sure that I'm not going back to old habbits!
Thanks, Mike!

Mike Dickson is a game-changer… literally! Mike’s technical expertise will help players of any skill level and experience. I went to Mike after about 13 years of playing and a range of bad habits. In my first lesson with Mike, he diagnosed a few problems and we got to work building a plan for how we would rebuild my swing into something that will improve my golf game and reduce the likelihood of injury. I was looking for a coach that I could invest in and would invest in my growth. I found that coach in Mike.

When taking golf lessons you do not always know if the Golf Pro will be relatable, knowledgeable, a good communicator or will help to improve your game. Mike Dickson checks all the boxes.

He takes the time to explain all aspects of any issues you are having to support the improvement of your game. His lessons are specific to supporting your individual improvement. His video descriptive approach has made a difference in my play.

Mike is a fantastic coach. Walks you through what you can improve and also gives you a path forward to practice. That was the most beneficial part as it allowed me to continuously get better.

I love the software Mike uses to analyze golf swings, and he was quickly able to point out several bad flaws with my setup position. He also has a very strong knowledge of the golf swing and conveys that knowledge well, while also taking time to answer my questions. Thus, he's a good communicator and uses those skills to understand what I need to do to improve as a golfer.

I have been going to Mike for many years and not only is he a great coach, he is a great guy. He coaches as if he is your friend. Sometimes, when getting a lesson from a pro such as Mike, you may be nervous. After having conversation with Mike, this is not the case. Mike understands my game and coaches around it rather than completely changing my game. Mike is great and if your in the area, you should get a lesson!

Worked with Mike over the last year and have been very impressed. He knows the golf swing and has the skills to explain/demonstrate the changes needed. Building a top-notch instruction program at Little Bennett - love to see it at a public course!

Mike Dickson is fantastic. I have used Mike to fit me for custom clubs as well as provide lessons to myself and my kids. Mike keeps the concepts simple but very effective. Mike has a very relaxed approach that allows the student to be comfortable and not afraid to ask questions. He has a wonderful temperament to work with young golfers as well. I can’t recommend Mike enough. Chris C.

I decided after 42 years of half decent golf played with a mediocre swing, it was time for me to get the right swing and get to better scores. I made exactly the right choice — I signed up with Mike Dickson. Thanks to Mike, I am playing better, scoring better, and my swing is something I can be proud of. I’ve learned shot technique I never knew existed, and got in touch with my “inner golfer” to better understand the elements of good play and scoring. Golf is more fun than it’s ever been.

Mike’s approach to adult instruction and coaching makes lessons fun and valuable. Before Mike, I thought of taking lessons as an expense I didn’t need…now I see it as an investment in making this game more enjoyable and and better use of our time.

Thanks Mike!

Mike is amazing. We started with him while he taught at Congressional Country Club. He now teaches both me and my son who is 8. He’s a great teacher, wonderful with kids, and just a really nice guy. Highly recommend.

I met with Mike when I had a case of the yips. For a 3-week stretch I literally could not hit the ball in the air and was not breaking 120. 5 minutes into my second lesson, I was making better contact and had better ball flight than I ever had before. Mike gave me drills that allowed me to make further improvements on my swing, in my free time. I was quickly able to break 90 and score in the mid-80s. I look forward to working with Mike again this year.

Mike is the real deal if you want to take your golf game to the next level. In one lesson he took me from an average of 36 putts a round to 32. I index at a 7 so I thought I had a pretty sound understanding of the game... but Mike took me to the next level.

FANTASTIC Coach! Best I’ve ever worked with in 30 years. Immediate improvement paired with a devoted instructor. I would recommend Mike to any player interested in efficient and consistent improvement. Be sure to check out his fitting options too!! Not in town? No worries: Mike has virtual options as well!! Incredibly happy with my lessons with Mike!

Mike coaches my 9 year old son and we are so grateful for what Mike does to help develop him into a technically superior and strategically advance player. Mike is highly qualified and one of the best coaches for junior golfers. Kids are difficult to motivate but Mike understands that well and also counsels the parents on how to assist with junior golfer development without overwhelming them with pressure.
Kids are very honest in their assessment and feedback. My son admires Mike and responds to everything Mike says. He looks forward to his lessons. Mike is so gracious that he always acknowledges Ali on the range even when he's not having a lesson. Mike is also very responsive when my son needs a "quick fix" when things are not going great.
Mike's professional credentials along with his ability to manage the psychological aspects of the game make him one of the best coaches and we are so fortunate that he's here with us at Little Bennett. Best wishes and many thanks Mike.

Mike does a great job of tailoring his lessons and techniques to match the skills/understanding of his students. He identified simple tweaks that helped improve my game and allowed me to be more comfortable and confident on the golf course. I would recommend him to work with golfers of any age or ability.

Mike is a very insightful golf instructor. Many golf instructors can identify game improvement steps and communicate well the correct concepts. Only a few can translate “the game” into something the average golfer can “feel”, self-correct and meaningfully improve. Mike has a good eye for what needs improvement and he’s an astute listener to understand how I best analyze and take in information and instruction. Getting on the course is where Mike does his best work where we go through all sorts of game situations to further enable me to be my own instructor when I play.

I can highly recommend Mike. I just finished my first series of lessons with him and have never hit the ball so well. He improved all my swing mechanics but also taught me scoring opportunity areas I had never considered before such as course management and even the mental aspects of the game. For me, my short game / putting improvement has helped me score better and I’m finally crushing my long irons! You will like working with him. He is patient, makes things understandable and, overall, an expert in helping golfers improve.

Mike is one of the best golf coaches that I've had. He provides tips and pointers that have immediate application to my game. I also appreciate his drills and resource material that he shares to further apply the instruction. His personality is also very personable, engaging and easy to approach. I'm excited to keep working with Mike -- even though my 'commute' to meet with him is an hour each way. It's well worth it!

Excellent teacher. Lots of good information and keeps it interesting.

Recently took four lessons with Mike in a group setting. His teaching method provides clear instructions and he is able to zero in on each golfers areas for improvement. Mike is very positive and encourages his students that they CAN improve! He is a great addition to MC Golf Academy. I plan to take more lessons from him.

Excellent instructor, and I plan on taking more lessons from Mike. I highly recommend him. Regardless of skill level, swing style, or physical limitations, I’ve personally seen Mike’s coaching improve outcomes for players. I took the four lesson package with him and each class I learned something that immediately translated to saved strokes on the course (and I have been playing for 10+ years). Again, I highly recommend him and thank you Mike!

Mike is the best ... I started lessons with him about 2 yrs ago and can’t imagine going to anyone else. He is a phenomenal coach, superb when it comes to the mechanics of a golf swing, and provides great tips / tools to practice at home which enhance your swing and overall game.

We started some lessons for our two boys last October with Coach Mike. From their first lesson, he started making some key changes to their swings that impacted their games tremendously. Mike can just observe a swing one time and make a positive suggestion that, in turn, gains them an additional 10-15 yards. He’s always encouraging, knows how to boost up the boys confidence, and is extremely knowledgeable in the sport. Coach Mike not only has the knowledge and experience in the game of golf, but he has excellent communication skills. Our boys are 9 and 13 and learn very differently. But, Mike has been able to teach with different methods and strategies which the boys have been able to execute in competitions. He has a variety of equipment and tools he can use to improve and perfect your swing. Our older son loves the fact that he can send Mike a video of his swing and Mike will respond with a suggestion on what he can fix. We are so thrilled to have him as our coach and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Mike is absolutely the best, and my lessons so far have both helpful and a lot of fun. From my very first lesson with him, he was incredibly quick in identifying the biggest areas of improvement in my swing. (As a beginner, I have noticed a lot of little things wrong with my swing, and I tend toward slicing with an open face on impact. Mike has done an incredible job not only helping me correct elements of my swing, but also helping me understand how each little error contributes to differences at impact.) The lessons are 200% worth it - I'm aiming to be in "playing shape" by the summer, and Mike's lessons have helped a ton so far.

He's incredibly generous with his time - I have always felt like a priority during my lessons.

Mike is an exceptional teacher. He knows how to analyze the golf swing and help me with all of the things necessary to help me understand and improve my game. He is very attentive and a joy to be around. I have recommended Mike to many of my golf friends

Mike Dickson is a great coach. He has great knowledge of the game and improving my skills. Mike has improved my scores on the course through short game and on course instruction. He is always positive and enthusiastic. I am looking forward to his coaching programs.

Mike Dickson is a Master PGA coach who is gifted in teaching all aspects of golf. His success with techniques of instruction are amazing, he has an unfailing eye for diagnosing problems of his students and correcting them with ease. His focus on improving your golfing skills is with laser- like intensity while making the process an enjoyable and self- affirming lesson. I am so happy to have this excellent instructor, it has made a huge difference in my golf game. There is much more to go, and Mike is the professional who will get me there!

Mike is extremely knowledgeable about the golf swing and is great at communicating how to make changes to better your swing. Mike is also very responsive and adapts his teaching style to the individual he is working with whether it be in person or over video. I have been working with Mike for years and will continue to as he is the reason I continue to improve!

I’ve been playing golf for 15 years and have tried a dozen different coaches. Mike is the best one I’ve ever been to. I also take my 7 and 9 year old to him and he’s great at coaching kids too — really easy going and explains things in ways they understand. Could not recommend him more.

Mike is a great coach. I have known him for a few years now and his coaching and knowledge of the game has taken me from a 20+ handicap to single digits. He has also always been a great guy to be around and I love taking lessons from him.

I’m a 8 handicap and saw significant improvement after my first lesson with Mike. He quickly identified a few things for me to work on that led to lower scores immediately. I’d highly recommend Mike to anyone looking to improve.

Mike is awesome. I Have known him for a long time and he has been so consistent in his efforts of being as helpful as he can. He is knowledgeable and passionate about helping his players improve. I have seen improvements in my game and know I will continue to do so with his help as I try to compete in some amateur tournaments. As I have seen improvements, I have gained a better understanding and awareness of my game and what works for me through the numerous lessons I have had over the years.
