Gary Kent Golf Schools of Ontario - Markham, Ontario

I joined Gary’s beginner clinic in January of 2023, as I had dabbled in golf before but wanted to finally take lessons. His group format worked well for me as it gave me tips on basics, like set up and swing plane, while also a good balance between coaching and time to practice what he teaches you. I then moved on to semi-private lessons with him where we worked on anything from chipping, putting, and refining nuances of the driver and iron swings. My last score on a decent course at the end of 2022 was 110. I now just hit 86 and regularly break 100, and it’s only a month into the golf season. Gary is fun, patient, resourceful and I am so glad to have found him as my first coach. Highly recommend him!

Gary is a top tier golf instructor. We are taking semi-private lessons and his ability to tailor the approach, instructions, drills to players of different ability is phenomenal. Most importantly he has a great attitude and ensures you feel great when working with him.
Important but least of all is that his lessons are great value!
It’s important to note the top tier instructional tools Gary provides to augment is teaching. Gary doesn’t use props or gimmicks he does have a setup of new video tools (iPads) that he sets up for each trainee so that you have real time feedback as well as historical evidence of changes in your swing. Very cool stuff!

As a professional golfer, Gary makes my learning experience very relaxed and enjoyable. Gary effectively corrected my mistakes and helped me improve right away in my first class. Whether you are seeking to refine your strokes or just to get started, Gary is the right person to go to.

Gary Kent (aka "The Shark"!) was my golf instructor for over 15 years. As a single digit handicap, it can be difficult to trust some pros with your swing. Gary was a big reason why my handicap continued to decline. I can't thank him enough for squeezing me in for last minute private lessons as often as he did! I recommended many friends to Gary as well, and they were all really happy. Commit to a 5 lesson package as a minimum if you really wish to improve your game.

I just finished my intermediate golf instructional course with Gary and I must say it greatly helped my swing. The reason why I picked the Gary Kent Golf School is because he offers instruction at a good price point and the location is close to where I live.

The program I was apart of was for 5 weeks 1 hour/week plus a 30min private lesson at the end.The class sizes didn't exceed 5 people including myself. The classes always started on time as advertised. Make up classes were accommodating as well. I found the instruction great, as Gary gave you adjustments every class and once you got used to a certain adjustment he'd give you more pointers to build on.

Gary is a good person to bounce question off of and always fun to talk to. Being new to the sport it can get really confusing as everybody is trying to give you advice. Having a golf professional does make things simpler because your building your skills with one person. You end up picking up on things faster and you are more aware of how you're swinging.

For the great value, location and quality of instruction I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to learn.

Thanks,
Harry

Me and my girlfriend took private lessons with Gary. I can safely say he was the best thing to happen to my golf game. I steadily improved throughout the summer all thanks to Gary and his coaching. He is a great guy and has good tactics to help you improve. Thanks gary looking forward to coming back!

I've had the pleasure of working with Gary for about twenty years and continue to work with him on my game. He helped introduced my daughters to golf and he has worked with me through a deteriorating hip and then post hip replacement to help keep me an improving single digit handicap player.

I have recommended Gary to many of my friends and colleagues over the years and would recommend him to anyone serious about improving and understanding the game.

I just completed the beginner's group course w/ Gary over 5 weekends. It was a great introductory course and both Gary and Kyle were extremely professional, fun and easy going. He was pushing us all the time to do better and conscious of the beginner level. I found it a very enjoyable learning experience and hope to be back sometime to get more lessons once I get some more practice on what Gary taught 🙂
