Neil Gowan Golf 1 Patriots Point Road, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464

"Neil has been working with both of my boys for the past five years and has helped both of them develop very far. He is a master of being able to break a golf swing down so even kids can understand, but being very kind and understanding while the young ones are learning."

"Neil is an amazing instructor and a joy to be around. I host events for Bridgeside Patriots Point Apartments and we have done several group lessons with Neil. He is able to teach first time golfers and scratch golfers incredibly well. Neil is incredibly knowledgeable and will add value to your game. You will save money in golf balls and broken clubs by a lesson with Neil. It is a guarantee he will make your game better!"

"If you want to improve your game, beginner or expert, I can’t recommend Neil enough. I’m a Long time golf dabbler, maybe 20 rounds over the last 5 years prior to spending time with Neil. Couldn’t get off the tee or fairway - everything was low and left. A friend recommended Neil…I kid you not - Neil took a look at a few of my swings, made a small grip adjustment, and it was pure magic. Straight as an arrow. With all new things, especially golf for me, it’s a roller coaster of ups and downs. I still take lessons every month or so, and each time we work on a different aspect of the sport. I’ve taken 4 lessons with Neil, building upon the last lesson or taking a new direction towards putting or driving. If you have a specific area you want to focus on, he tailors the lesson for you. He has made this sport so much more enjoyable, keeps things simple enough to digest, but is happy to go deeper based on your experience / interest. The technology he uses to analyze your swing is also top notch. He’s easy to work with, good communicator, and always sends a few pics/videos after the lesson. I can’t recommend Neil enough - anyone in the charleston area who’s serious about improving their game needs a session with Neil!"

"Like most amateur golfers, I have had a long series of ups and downs trying to improve my game. To be honest, despite countless hours of practices and a handful of golf instructors, the first few years yielded little progress. There were a few points where I thought it might have been better for me to just find a different hobby; however, after one very tough round in May 2023, another golfer recommended that I reach out to Neil Gowan. Given my mixed experiences with other golf coaches, and acknowledging that I am not the easiest person to coach, I had my doubts about starting lessons again. Upon meeting Neil, I quickly caught onto his adaptive approach to golf and how it enables golfers of all ages and skill levels to find their swing. As an overly analytical person, I would often ask Neil for prescriptive guidance on how to do something, but he would purposefully only give succinct pointers and push me to develop a true “feel” for the golf swing. Before Neil, I would constantly try to put myself in very specific positions or try to manipulate the club in transition, which only led to inconsistent and unnatural swings. Neil has a very keen ability to teach in a way where you are able to perform a degree of self discovery without becoming overwhelmed with too many details. After six months of working with Neil, I can confidently say my swing has transformed from a robotic motion to a more fluid and consistent movement. More importantly, Neil taught me to truly feel my swing and see how various adjustments can dictate the outcome of a golf shot. All in all, I am incredibly thankful to Neil for helping restore my love for golf and giving me a tangible trajectory for me to continuously improve my game. I highly recommend anyone in the Charleston area, regardless of age or skill, to work with Neil on your golf game—you won’t be disappointed!"
