Hi Scott,
Thanks for your interest. Right now, I'm not taking on any new students who aren't members of the club I teach at in Los Gatos, CA. La Rinconada Country Club. We had some turnover at my club and I don't have the room. We are bringing in another instructor early June, so I might be able to start taking new non-member students on mid-june or early July.
In the meantime, however, I’d love to recommend working with one of our Golf Smart Academy Certified Coaches. They’ve completed our certification program, which is built around my teaching system and coaching philosophy. You can learn more and find a coach here:https://www.golfsmartacademy.com/find-coach/
Happy Golfing,
Tyler

Tyler,
Thank you for getting back to me on this item. I know you are very busy and I appreciate you taking the time to give my inquiry a response. I would love to be more closely located to you, since you are in California, but I live a few (said sarcastically) 20 hours east, in Mid Missouri. So as much as I would prefer an in person session, I believe virtual would be our only feasible option. So if there is still the possibility of an online lesson with you, I would for sure be interested in that option in June/July or whenever you might be able.
I do know your other instructors are excellent, I am just very big on not trying to get too many ideas or concepts for my golf swing. I have found that your specific teaching style relates very well to me and my golf goals, so I would just prefer to train with you, if that is at all possible. If this is not an option, I will just continue to train and use your excellent golf smart academy site along with your book “The Stock Tour Swing” for my training plans. Thanks again for all the excellent coaching material and trying to help us all with this life passion/obsession, we all call golf. Thanks!
Scott Nichols
