Earl Johnson Jr.
Golf Coach in Suffolk, Virginia
I've been a student of the great game of golf for a little over 20 years and continue to learn every day. One of my most significant accomplishments was achieving my first hole-in-one only two years into my playing journey. I've played in multiple recreational tournaments and have had the privilege of teaching my kids this great game. My philosophy is that golf should be fun and the process of playing better should be enjoyable. If you enjoy it and have fun, you'll want to play more, which means you'll ultimately get better.

“My lesson with Earl was quite helpful, especially in highlighting how small adjustments in my grip and stance can improve my iron shots. Though I still need to work on consistency, I feel more aware of what to focus on next. Still, I’m encouraged to keep practicing and see how things develop. If you’re looking for someone who pays attention to the details and can guide you through specific aspects of golf, Earl might be worth trying.”

I really appreciated how Earl made my first golf lesson feel comfortable and encouraging. As a complete beginner, his clear instructions and simple tips helped me improve my swing right away. I left feeling confident and excited to practice on my own. If you’re considering starting golf, his lessons are a great place to begin! 👏

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much at first, but Earl's lesson was quite helpful. It was comfortable and not hurried, making learning pretty good. Plus, I already feel more confident after this, and the lesson's easy to understand and adjust. If you're looking for a relaxed way to improve your game, though, Earl's your guy!

Today we worked on the driver and the pitching wedge. I was very happy with Earls directions. I improved my distance with the driver and improved my technique with the pitching wedge. Looking forward to my next lesson!

I have known Earl for several years now. He is an excellent golfer who understands the game and communicates clearly and effectively. He's non-judgemental in helping others in their quest for golf enjoyment

Great, super friendly, very helpful coach. Did not try to rebuild my swing but instead gave me a few tips to pay attention to when going into my process. Will be recommending to all my golf buddies.
