“I
started
taking
lessons
from
Stephen
Ventre
about
two
years
ago.
I
had
been
a
single
digit
handicap
player.
The
loss
of
distance,
due
to
the
aging
process,
caused
me
to
modify
my
swing
which
led
to
bad
results.
Stephen
has
helped
me
to
restore
the
balance
in
my
swing.
This
has
led
to
much
better
ball
striking.
Stephen
is
an
excellent
teacher.
He
is
patient
and
has
the
knowledge
of
a
good
golf
swing
and
how
to
get
you
there.
Stephen
uses
the
Track
Man
System
which
helps
the
student
to
graphically
observe
his/her
golf
swing
com
-
pared
to
the
desired
results.
This
is
an
excel
-
lent teaching aid.
Recently
I
came
within
one
stroke
of
shooting
my
age
which
I
credit
to
Stephen’s
instruction.
I recommend him highly as a golf instructor.”

"I
have
been
taking
lessons
from
Stephen
for
the
last
2
years
and
he
is
by
far,
hands
down,
the
best
golf
instructor
on
the
North
Shore.
If
you
have
a
passion
for
the
game
you
owe
it
to
yourself
and
your
golf
game
to
go
and
see
him
as he is one of the best around."

I
was
a
20
handicap
before
I
came
down
with
a
bad
case
of
the
shanks.
I
went
from
not
being
able
to
hit
an
iron
in
the
air
to
a
couple
of
my
best
rounds
ever.
I
shot
a
75
and
a
79
at
Beverly
Golf
and
Tennis.
I
am
now
currently
a
12
handicap
and
continue
to
see
Stephen on a regular basis."
Dan McGrath

"I
worked
with
Stephen
once
or
twice
a
week
indoors
during
the
winter
months.
When
the
good
weather
came,
I
imme
-
diately
saw
a
huge
improved
in
my
game.
I
happen
to
have
two
hole-in-
ones
within
a
13
day
stretch.
I
dropped
my
handicap
from
a
26
to
a
12
by
the
completion of that season."

My
daughter
started
golfing
and
taking
lessons
from
Stephen
Ventre
three
years
ago
at
the
age
of
15
years
old.
Today
she
is
a

handicap
and
has
won
over
14
tournaments
in
the
last
two
seasons
playing
on
the
New

She
loves
the
game
of
golf
and
plans
to
pursue
working
&
playing
in
the
golf
industry.
Abby
has
a
learning
disability
which
limits
her
opportunities
for
pursuing
golf
at
a
higher
education
level.
Stephen
was
able
to
effectively
work
with
my
daughter
by
modifying
his
teaching
methods
in
a
way
that
she
could
understand.
Stephen
has
helped
my
daughter
learn
the
fundamentals
of
the
golf
game
which
has
improved
her
overall
score.
Stephen
has
improved
her
short
game
as
well
as
developing
an
awesome
overall
golf
swing.
Stephen
has
also
included
recommendations
on
physical
conditioning
which
includes
overall
flexibility
and
core
strengthening
to
improve
her
overall
performance.
We
credit
my
daughter’s
success
to
a
combination
of
her
dedication
and
training
from
Stephen.
I
would
highly
recommend
Stephen
to
anyone
seeking
to
improve
their
golf
game
at
any level.”

"Our
son,
Aidan,
started
working
with
Stephen
before
entering
high
school
and
because
of
what
he
learned
and
the
confidence
he
gained,
he
tried
out
and
made
his
high
school
varsity
golf
team
as
a
freshman.
Aidan
ended
his
freshman
season
as
the
number
7
golfer
on
his
team.
Aidan
continued
working
with
Stephen
and
ended
his
sophomore
golf
season
as
the
number
2
golfer,
was
elected
team
MVP,
and
captain
of
the
golf
team
for
his
upcoming
junior
year!
Not
only
did
Aidan's
skills
improve
but
he
is
a
much
more
confident
golfer
with
a
better
attitude.
Stephen
has
taken
the
time
to
get
to
know
Aidan
and
is
a
mentor
and
friend
to
him along with being his coach."

Stephen,
You
have
helped
me
tremendously
with
my
game.
My
drives
are
20
yards
longer.
I
have
chipped
in
numerous
times
and
my
short
game
is
really
helping
my
score.
I
have
not
broken
80
yet
but
have
had
scores
ranging
from
80
(twice)
to
85
in
that
range.
I
have
taken
lessons
from
various
PGA
professionals
but
you
are
the
only
one
that
has
made
a
difference
in
my
game.
Thanks
you
and
I
am
sure
I will be back for more lessons.

I
started
working
with
coach
Stephen
in
the
winter
of
2018.
When
I
first
started
working
with
him,
I
was
around
an
8-10
handicap
from
the
reds.
I
was
barely
hitting
the
golf
ball
200
yards
off
the
tee.
After
working
with
Stephen
for
just
2
years,
I’ve
dropped
to
a
0.7
handicap
from
the
tips
and
am
now
hitting
it
300+
yards
off
the
tee.
I've
also
won
the
New
England
Junior
PGA
player
of
the
year
award
twice
and
over
40+
junior
tournaments.
In
addition
to
this,
I
have
also
competed
in
the
IMG
Junior
Worlds
and
Optimist
Junior
Worlds
representing
Team
USA.
I
was
shooting
high
90’s
from
the
red/yellow
tees
and
after
just
two
years
with
Coach
Stephen,
I
posted
multiple
tournament
scores
under
par
from
the
tips
this
summer.
Coach
Stephen
puts
the
golf
swing
into
perspective
for
me
and
with
just
one
swing,
he
can
diagnose
the
problem
and
fix
it.
He
has
dramatically
improved
my
golf
swing
and
my
mental
approach
to
the
game.
He
is
not
only
a
great
swing
coach
but
also
a
great
mental
coach
and
a
better
friend.
He
supports
you
through
everything
and
is
always
there
for
you
when
you
have
questions.
I
credit
my
success
to
a
combination
of
my
hard
work,
my
family,
and
Coach
Stephen.
He
is
not
only
the
best
coach
but
also
the
best
mentor
around
the
New
England
area for golf.

“I
have
been
taking
lessons
from
Stephen
since

My
average
score
has
improved
from
the
mid
to
high
80’s
to
the
mid
to
low
70’s.
I
recently
finished
my
junior
golf
season
in
the
top
spot

the Lynn English Golf Team. While
training
with
Stephen
I
have
won
a

2012
and
I
also
a
won

All
