Mike Dickson Golf - GOLF TOP 100 INSTRUCTOR

"TLDR: Mike is the best coach I’ve worked with. Go see him. For starters: I’m not a good golfer. I took ~20 years off and got back into the game six months back. After several sessions with other DMV-area pros, I landed on Mike and couldn’t be happier with the results. Two things about his teaching stand out. First, he doesn’t have a one-size fits all approach. Second, he does a great job explaining how the swing elements work together. Since getting back into the game I’d spent a ton of time watching YouTube videos on the “correct grip” or “perfect takeaway” and had ended up with a lot of decent-looking pieces that didn’t play well together. The last thing I’ll add is that golf is hard and not always intuitive and you can save yourself a lot of time, frustration and money by going to a good instructor at the start."

"I just started learning to golf 6 months ago and started with almost 0 knowledge of the sport. Mike has been a phenomenal coach! He explains things in a way that a beginner can understand and really caters his instruction to your natural tendencies in your swing. He is extremely patient and encouraging. I have truly learned so much and I look forward to continue training with Mike. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn the sport correctly from the ground up!"

"Having taken a number of golf lessons and attending a few golf schools too over the past 20 years, without question Mike is the Best instructor I found to work with. Wish I found him sooner. Actually, he is more than an instructor, he is a Coach who knows so much about the golf swing. He quickly detected and corrected my swing issues in a simple and constructive manner. I saw immediate improvement in my ball striking. I am achieving tighter dispersions from Driver to short irons. No more stirring the ball, now I know how to release it. I am making plans for more lessons with Mike in early Spring and I imagine I will do a few tune-up lessons as well throughout 2024. I learned so much from Mike in just two lessons. I am making better swings resulting in better golf shots thanks to Mike’s instruction. With a little more work and Mike’s help I am confident I will get to a single digit handicap in 2024. Moreover, Mike is a great guy who really cares and who wants to see a student improve."

"Mike Dickson is an outstanding coach! Everywhere you go in this community (Washington DC Metro region), when you mention his name they say he is the best out there, and I fully agree. He has taken my game from nothing to working with the skill set that I had and helping me build upon it to make me confident and a better golfer all around. I cannot say enough positive things about what a wonderful coach/instructor Mike is. He breaks things down, so it is understandable and reproducible. What more can you ask? He is a 10 out of 10 in my book."

"Started playing golf 5 months ago. As someone who studied music at a very deep level for over 15 years I realized the importance of finding the right teacher early on. After doing some research I found Mike as a top rated teacher in the state of Maryland and booked a lesson. I’ve been around many teachers for different skills I’ve developed over the years and what sets Mike apart from the rest is his ability to teach you the way that works best for you. He understands that no student learns the same way or has the same body mechanics. I’ve been studying with Mike for a few months and would recommend him to anyone that wants to improve their game. In the first 6 months of my golf journey I was able to break 100 for the first time and scored a 90 yesterday."
