"Personal Golf Trainer - Will Travel "

"After struggling with my golf swing for nearly 20 years, I found Jimmy Watts. I now have a direction to go with my swing and have improved dramatically. Jimmy Watts does not just tell me what I want to hear to keep me coming back. He works on my golf game from the ground up and I highly recommend him over any golf instructor I've used in the past."

You've taken "GOLF LESSONS", now are you ready to "LEARN HOW TO GOLF" ?

I've been playing the game of golf for over 30 years, and I have taken my share of lessons from so called "Teaching Pro's". Far from helping me, these men only confused and complicated my golf swing, so after awhile I'd give up on "Their Swing" and go back to my own. Since I still had a problem, I tried some of those golf teaching video's you see advertised on the television. All the right fundamentals were being presented, but something was missing. I wasn't getting the feedback I needed, the feedback we all need to let us know if we're on the right track.

Being dissatisfied with past experiences, and knowing I needed someone to tell me what I was doing wrong, I decided to observe the so called "Teaching Pro's" and watch their methods and styles before committing to take lessons again. After observing several "Pro's" over a couple of years I finally found Jimmy Watts. I watched Jimmy for almost 6 weeks before I decided to ask him for help. This has got to be the best decision I've ever made as far as golf is concerned. I knew after one lesson that Jimmy Watts was the teacher for me. Right away he was concerned with my progress. With small, incremental changes, Jimmy Watts changed my swing into something that I now feel confident with. After one lesson, I knew the where and why my swing was breaking down. After the second lesson, I knew how and why I was overworking, and after the third lesson I knew how to hit the ball more consistently than I had in years, and with a swing that is effortless.

Jimmy Watts wants you to learn how to play golf within your abilities. He is a "Tell It Like It Is" teacher. Jimmy doesn't tell you what you want to hear, "he tells you what you NEED to hear" . Jimmy talks to you in simple terms, not using all the modern golfing clichés of the day. He helps you understand why and how to execute the proper swing movements. He's a coach that treats his students as athletes, working with their skills and talents to mold their swings into working, smooth running, effortless golf swings. I've actually seen Jimmy Watts take two beginner golfers, and in two lessons have them hitting golf balls as if they'd been playing for years.

Jimmy Watts is the best teacher/coach I've had the pleasure of working with. If you want to "Learn How To Play Golf The Right Way", ask for Jimmy Watts. Jimmy will teach you how to swing the golf club the way you've always wanted to, and knew you were capable of.

"I soon learned that Jimmy Watts is as knowledgeable about the golf swing as any instructor that I have ever met. I worked with Jimmy on my swing. He gives 100% effort in all that he does... I believe that Jimmy Watts could be the next Jim Albus on the Senior PGA Tour."

"What's really impressive about Jimmy's way of teaching is how, in the process of taking it apart, he never lets you forget about the whole golf swing. Not all those teachers I've had before were able to do this... everyone of his students can and will improve!"

"I was fortunate to have been paired with Jimmy Watts for the first two rounds of the national Senior Tour qualifying tournament in Sarasota, Florida. I was very impressed with Jimmy's talent."

"It was a very pleasant experience to hear compliments from his many students of all ages and levels of competence. Jimmy Watts has not only shown that he is capable of teaching golf, but also demonstrated his high level of playing ability as well."

"While searching for ways to improve my game, I found Jimmy through his website.  Since I live in Richmond, I decided to drive to Raleigh on weekends to work with Jimmy after talking with him on the phone the first time.  I was shooting in the high 70's and low 80's when I started working with Jimmy.  After spending 6 months working with Jimmy on improving my full swing I won my club championship by shooting a 70 followed by a 71 for a 2 day total of 3 under par.  I could never have done that without Jimmy's help.  He has a keen eye and sees things a lot of golf pros would miss."

After winning my club championship last year, I realized I needed to improve my golf swing.  I was too inconsisent day-to-day and had to work too hard to shoot the scores I was shooting.  After doing some searching, I determined Jimmy was the coach I wanted to work with long-term.  I made the committment and we started working on the 3-4 flaws that were causing me to experience inconsistent results.

I have been working with Jimmy on a weekly basis for a year now and have experienced tremendous improvement in all aspects of the game.  My distance and accuracy have both improved dramatically.  In a true coach's style, Jimmy not only works on physical issues such as swing flaws but he also works on your mental approach to the game.  I am 100% positive I would never have developed the type of mental toughness necessary to play competitive golf if I had not met Jimmy Watts.

Jimmy is a no-nonsense guy who is extrememly committed to his students. He goes above and beyond the call of duty to get his points across to his students. I cannot recall the number of times he has called me 2-3 days after one of our sessions to ask how my practice was going or to remind me of a particular move I needed to work on.

After working with Jimmy for as long as I have, I really get the impression that he is the type of coach who likes to work with players over a period of time instead of giving someone two lessons and never seeing them again.  He, like all great coaches, understands that it takes time to develop students' skills and he continually works to find new ways to get his ideas and points on the golf swing across to the student in a clear manner.

The money I have spent with Jimmy over the last year has been the best investment I have ever made in my golf game.  There is nothing I could have done to improve any faster than I have working with Jimmy.  I wont trust my swing to anyone else.

P.S.  I successfully defended my club championship this year."

"If you are looking for a lesson or two and to have a golf pro tweak your swing you have come to the wrong place. However if you are looking to make a commitment and have that commitment matched by a coach who will dedicate himself to your long term improvement Jimmy Watts is exactly the man who can take your golf game to the next level.  Jimmy's keen eye allows him to tell you what you need to hear and will stop you from making the same mistakes over and over.  No one becomes a great golfer over night but Jimmy will put you on the right track from day one and give you the tools to exceed your own golfing expectations.  If you place the same level of dedication into practicing your game as Jimmy puts into the time he spends with you will become a much better and consistent golfer.  Finally as a business professional who travels extensively Jimmy's willingness to work with my ever changing schedule has been critical to my success."
