What kind of golf student are you? If you are one of the few who are willing to do the work and the drills to change muscle memory to learn a “pro-style” golf swing, then go see Coach Mike. His hands-on approach will help you get your body to do what most coaches will tell you to do, but can’t help you get your body to do it. If you are one of the many who aren’t willing to do the work and the drills to develop the game you dream of, go work with Coach Mike. It doesn’t matter who you work with because you aren’t going to change anyway, so you might as well work with someone who is enjoyable to work with and who can help you if you decide you are willing to put in the effort.

When I went to Mike, my game was in shambles. He was able to completely break my swing down, and build it back up from scratch. He also gave me the tools I needed to diagnose myself when my swing is off, and he’s not around. That was 2 years ago, and I have been striking the ball well ever since. I cannot recommend his service enough.

Mike has been my teacher for over 30 years. Yes, I have worked with other PGA professionals, one took a guy named "Tiger" through his amateur days until Stanford. However, my road to being a better player always led back to Mike Wydra. I'm now 75 years old and shot 75 at Oak Creek in Irvine CA last week. Yes, I still see Mike in person and on-line. If you are serious about getting better, he is your man. Dennis

Coach Wydra is quite simply the best golf instructor in Southern California. I have taken plenty of lessons from various instructors, but I always return to Mike as he has the experience to teach the same lessons 10 different ways. Everyone learns differently and Mike can find the right way for everyone to “get it”. He is worth more than just 5 stars! Give him a try, you will not be sorry!

I have been a student of Mike’s for approximately five years and when I came to him, I was a 90s to 100 average golfer. He helped fix the problems with my swing. He is very knowledgeable and real easy to work with the knowledge of the game he has is phenomenal, help me learn how to CHIP better hit knockdown shots hit draws, and fades better than those what I thought were draws and fades. I hope you’ll enjoy the same experience that I’ve had over the years and the friendship. PS the on course management playing with him help me understand the approach to the greens better than I ever thought before It was nice to get that perspective of the game one on one that I thought I had From someone who knows that what I need to understand to be better on my approach to the game I now shout in the low 80 & high 70 on a good day He also has a vast knowledge of equipment these days to help you make sure you have the right fit for your game

Mike is the best! He coached me through my college NCAA career at UC San Diego and had me playing the best golf of my life. Nobody knows more about the swing than Mike and his approach to the game from the mental and course management side should also not be overlooked!

Mike is an excellent swing coach. But to call him just that would be an understatement. Mike understands the game, is an outstanding player in his own right, but most importantly knows how to tailor his teaching to an individual golfers needs. He’s a 1 of 1 kind of instructor. Highly recommend!
