Having returned to golf after a 30 year year break I felt I needed a few lessons to get me back on track. I’d had a few lessons with Mike back in the day and was delight to see he was still teaching and I booked a course of lessons with him. The first few lessons were learning all the basics again and then some analysis on the Trackman, what a revelation! The combination of what I would call traditional teaching and modern teaching was just what I was looking for and with Mike’s excellent guidance my handicapped dropped 11 shots in two months. I would highly recommend Mike as a coach, his professionalism, friendly attitude and patience is one to experience. I’m continuing to have lessons with Mike and am delighted with the results, thank you Mike.

Response : Hi CraigThanks for the great review. Congratulations on shooting 43 points with the custom built set. Trackman and I are here when you want to progress even further! kind regards.

Had 2 lessons with Mike Hawton and the improvement in my game was immediate. His instructions were clear and easy to understand and the use of Trackman reafirmed his instructions were working.

Mike is a fantastic coach and has helped me get my handicap down to 0. He has a great understanding of swing mechanics and fixes any issues in an easy to understand way. A lot of golfers don’t fully understand trackman or all the numbers it contains, but Mike uses and explains them in a simple way and with a few simple fixes gets all the numbers heading in the right direction. Highly recommended as a coach and a club fitter.

Bought a lesson for my Husband and he has come back from his lesson absolutely buzzing, he says that how Mike Hawton helped him in just one hour he couldn’t believe the quality. Fantastic Golf Coach.

I’ve come back to golf after 3 years off, have been struggling to shoot well. I had a session with Mike yesterday, within 2 shots he knew where my inconsistency was coming from; backed up by the numbers on Trackman. Mike gave me great confidence that I had a reliable swing, with videos of such. He readjusted my strong grip to change the degrees closed on impact. Today I played a competition and shot 5 under my handicap (of 10) with a 75 at Tiverton. Also winning that competition Will be going back over and over to try and get as low as possible in the next few seasons. Cheers Mike ? .
Response : Thanks very much for the review. Its always a pleasure to move a golfers game on and I get a buzz seeing the player striking the ball so much better in a relatively short period of time. Look forwards to enhancing your golf at the next session. Keep up the great work when you practice.

Age: 19I was off 7 when I came to SWGG about a year and a half ago. I'm now off 2 thanks to Mike Hawton and the staff there. Now with Mikes help I can get into the plus figures and start entering some of the bigger competitions(and winning). Thanks again .

I was struggling with my putting, so I rang Southwest GolfGuru and booked a lesson with Michael Hawton I went out on the course after and i was canning putts from all over. Thanks to Michael I got down from 7 to 4 and shot 2 70's and a 69!

I have been playing golf for about eight years but I never improved as much as I wanted to. That all changed when I had a lesson with Mike Hawton. He is brilliant and won't stop until your golf is the best it can be!

I started the year off as a 3 handicapper. A few months into the season my game was going nowhere. I decided to visit Mike Hawton and with a few lessons my season started to pick up. The next competition i shot a gross 69! I carried on visiting Mike throughout the Year and i have now got my handicap down to 1 and have won a few events towards the end of the season.

Thank you Mike. The help you gave me last week with my swing has really paid off. It really clicked into place what you said about how I finished my swing and how to harness more power. I played brilliantly well yesterday in tough conditions and won the stableford event by 5 points. I can't argue with that.

I Have been playing golf for 10 years and I have been struggling with my short game for the same length of time. I went to see Mike Hawton after seeing the South West Golf Guru Website. It has been the best course of lessons I have had and it has completly transformed my short game, now i'm not just trying to hit the green from 40 yards i'm holing the pitch shots too! The very best professional advice in a friendly atmosphere where the staff give you the very best advice definately worth a go if your looking to enjoy your golf more and see quick improvements :) Thank you Mike.
