### 5/5 — Changed My Game

*2023-09-26, version 6.0*

I golfed 3-5 times a year for most of my life but had a good basic swing. I was ok in the company or charity  scramble but too inconsistent to score well. 

When I decided to work on my game and play more, I found this app to help me overcome all the bad tips, and lack of knowledge, i suffered from. 

I went from a 30 something H.I. to a 24 pretty quickly. I have taken lessons since then and improved more, but this app got me on my way.

I could use this app when on long cross country flights, so it worked into my schedule, too.

### 2/5 — Mr

*2017-03-19, version 4.4*

Purchased this app a couple of years ago on my iPad. Now have a iPhone and it wants to charge me again to download on this device. I have downloaded other apps from iPad to iPhone without charge. I feel this is a bit of a con by this app developer!

### 5/5 — Golf coach

*2017-01-26, version 4.3*

I have been using the golf coach app for some time and the results in my game has come a long way due to the easy tuition. This app  is regularly updated by Noel.

This is a most if you are new to the game or if need to improve you game.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2016-05-21, version 4.2*

If you are like me you are not looking for a quick fix but instruction that will help you build a strong foundation for your game. If so this is the app for you. This is the best app I've found for improving my game from the bottom up. Videos are clearly conceived and presented. The tools provided in the swing analyzer are easy to use and effective. Well worth the money. Two versions are available. Foot the bill for the hd version. You'll not regret it.

### 5/5 — THE go-to Golf App

*2015-11-04, version 4.2*

I refer to this app time after time.  It is a must have tool for reinforcing my golf tuition. Solid instruction in 38 well organised short videos including some great drills.

### 5/5 — Everyday Golf Coach

*2015-10-26, version 4.2*

I was recommended this app by a friend and fellow player.  I've looked at a few golf apps and can honestly say this is the best I've come across.  Clear, concise and logical, it flows well and Noel uses straightforward language that's readily understandable, backed up by video examples and exercises that you can use on the practice range to improve your technique.  Each area of the game is covered sequentially in bite sized chunks giving the viewer the option of following the whole thing through step by step or dipping in and out, focusing on a particular area such as chipping.  It is remarkably good value and I'm already seeing improvements in my game as well as my confidence levels.   Highly  recommended.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-09-03, version 4.2*

Super all round app and the best after sales customer care I have ever received from an App Store provider. They even sorted a problem I was having with the app which wasn't even down to them!

### 5/5 — Best Golf App for iPad

*2014-06-26, version 4.1*

This app provides a detailed overview of the basic fundamentals of the game of golf. All of the major topics of golf instruction are covered, and the videos are clear, concise, and the HD video production quality is outstanding. I use this app as a quick reference for the basic fundamentals of golf. It is easy to get bogged down in too many swing concepts and ideas but this video keeps it simple and helps you focus on the true fundamentals.

### 5/5 — Brilliant.

*2014-05-19, version 4.1*

I've watched LOADS of YouTube videos on golf instruction and this beats them all hands down in so many ways. The pace of his voice is perfect, the way he describes things is clear and concise and easy to follow and the drills and examples he gives are aimed at all levels.
Like someone pointed out earlier in the reviews, it did take a while to load but it was well worth waiting for.
If you're serious about improving your golf you must get this app.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2014-04-11, version 4.1*

This app is very helpful!!! A+
