Dr. Jim Suttie

"I have been working with Brian for over two years and he has taught me to be a better player physically and mentally. He has also helped me understand my swing as well. Lastly, Brian has helped me accomplish many of my goals including playing golf at a Division I College."
Carissa Burdi
Northern Illinois University- Fall 2007

"Brian's focus on the fundamentals of the golf swing, reinforced by video analysis, is re-making my golf swing (at 53 years old!). He has helped me cut 10 strokes off my handicap in just one season. His individualized approach considers my particular strengths and weaknesses as opposed to the cookie-cutter instruction offered by other professionals. I look forward to continued improvement in the coming seasons."

"We met Brian when our son was in grade school. Brian fostered a real interest in golf due to his ability to relate, communicate and encourage our son.  As a result of Brian’s instruction, our son played competitive golf for his high school for four years.  Ben was shooting in the low 50's to high 40's entering his freshman year and by the time he was a senior he had an average of 39.   Brian also taught our son how to master the mental challenges of the game.  We believe that our son’s success is due to the lifelong lessons taught by Brian that go beyond the golf course."
