As a former PGA Professional, I have competed against, played with and caddied for Jeff Coston. I can tell you hands down he out-works everyone both physically and mentally, constantly striving to be a little better each day, never settling for less than his best, EVERY SINGLE DAY. I have watched Jeff hit balls for two hours before teaching for eight hours and then practicing for two more hours after. His passion to be the best is amazing. He is always seeking out and asking how he can be a better player and instructor. His power button is always on and the play button is always lit up.

I have spent a lot of time around talented teachers, very famous instructors. Jeff’s passion and energy for teaching is second to none and the message he delivers has not wavered even as his career has” shall we say” seasoned. He is just as excited now as he was twenty years ago. I cannot say that about the other instructors I have worked with and for. His ability to deliver his message through the spoken, visual and kinesthetic is second to none.

Now to the most important, if you are fortunate enough to spend time with Jeff you will come away a better human being. Jeff has been an unbelievable influence and mentor in my life, I am a better husband, father and man from our time together. The day I asked Jeff for help with my game I unknowingly changed my life for the better FOREVER. Every visit, phone call or text leaves me energized and wanting more.
