Praise from students
“We have found Mike to be a man of great integrity. His style of instruction has earned him the respect and admiration of our children. Mike’s enthusiasm and love for the game of golf is contagious!”
-Kelly and Marc K. East Hanover NJ
“Having had a few bad experiences with previous golf clinics, after meeting Mike I realized how important it is to find the right instructor, who knows and appreciates the basis for the correct and solid foundations in golf. Mike has given me that like no other. His consistency, his accuracy and positive out look towards the game I will carry with me forever.
Not only has he taught me the very foundations of golf he has also taught all three of my children. He brings a sense of how to really enjoy the game, that elevates anyone who is in his presence.”
-Dr. K. Towaco NJ
“Mike’s best quality, the one we most appreciate, is his ability to make every PGA Jr match fun for the kids – as well as the parents who watch. His unrelenting enthusiasm and positive attitude are infectious. No matter what the ability, what the shot, what the competition, Mike imbues a sense of enjoyment into playing golf. “
-Amy & Chris B. Randolph NJ
“A few years ago, I decided that I wanted to improve my golf game. My game was a mess with a handicap over 25. My first few lessons with Mike was on my short game and putting. We then moved to the driving range to work on my swing. Best investment of money and time I could have spent on my game! Mike showed me in those lessons over a few months that I wasn't as bad as I thought I was. It takes being shown the correct way to do something and practice to erase years or decades of bad habits. Mike will lay the ground work for you to improve. Every time I have seen Mike and a student at the range, I have always told the student to listen to what he tells them. It will pay off. Thank you Mike”
-Bob T. Rockaway, NJ
“As a single digit experienced public golfer, I went to Michael Andrusin for a check on my swing, with a look to establish one or two objectives to work on. Mike's astute awareness of what a golfer wants to achieve was paramount. For me, the combination of the video based driving range instruction, coupled with on the course accompaniment with video analysis, and monitoring of swing and strategy tendencies was instrumental for me to help plan out my future practice and playing game plan"
-Tad J. Baltimore Md.
“I have been playing softball and tennis for most of my life, and have always wanted to learn to golf. I was lucky enough to be introduced to Mike earlier this summer, and he has been wonderful in teaching me the mechanics, breaking down my swing, and going through very helpful drills. He even related some mechanics to how I might swing in softball, which helped me so much as well. Not only has Mike helped to teach me the game, but he has also helped to build my confidence; I'm very grateful to him!”
-Erin H. Parsippany NJ
