Read what my clients have said about their experiences - It’s as good as a personal recommendation!
“I would never think it possible to learn golf out on the course until I met James”
”I’ve only had two 90min sessions and I’ve already learned so much. Not only do I have a swing I feel I can practice on my own, but being on the course I’ve also learned how to putt and chip. I’m already feeling confident I belong on a course - I can’t wait for my next session”

“When I went to see James Ellis-Caird my short game was a mess, my head was a mess and I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to continue my 27-year love affair with golf. Through his boundless knowledge, infectious enthusiasm and proven methods, he managed what any number of shrinks, doctors and happy pills have failed to do by getting me to clear my mind and focus on the simple things. I doubted whether anyone could get me back to playing well but James not only improved my technique, he got me thinking about the short game in a totally new way. This is the way golf should be taught”

“James has a wonderful library of short game shots at his disposal. In just three sessions we’ve had together I’ve learned so much about how to tackle the game from a vast number of different situations around the green. Previously not a fan of the short game, James had helped me not only improve but more importantly find joy and excitement for when I miss the greens - He also sorted my swing out for good measure while we were playing….I’m so glad I found James at the delightful Chiltern Hospital Golf Course and would highly recommend him to anyone”

“Myself and my son have both had joint lessons with James at the wonderful Chiltern Hospital Golf Course - Apart from helping us with our full swings, playing out on the course with James has also improved all aspects of our games.
I will never forget the joy and excitement on my son’s face as he chipped in from off the green

“I can’t speak highly enough about James Ellis. He’s got a way of simplifying the game in One’s mind. By this I mean trusting him in removing all previous out-dated methods and ideas derived from various sources that usually clutters your head when you stand over a golf ball. I’ve had 7 lessons with him now and he’s enabled me to swing consistently without effort, given me a process for my erratic short game and best of all given me confidence to be free, keep it simple and enjoy myself on a golf course. Top bloke and top coach!”

“After 7 gruelling and unenjoyable lessons at a range trying to learn the correct swing, one horrendous experience on the course where I left my clubs, I thought golf was not for me... Then I met James!
Within just a few minutes he made me realise I shouldn’t care about perfecting a swing, It didn’t matter if I hit a bad shot, I never had to visit a range again, the object was to learn to enjoy it and simply play this game regardless of the result. If I kept going without constantly critising each and every mistake, the swing and its improvement over time will eventially find me...Within the 90 mins I spent with James I had played 6 short holes of golf, learned to chip, putt, pitch the ball and I even hit a lovely drive that felt amazing. More imporatnt I really enjoyed myself and looking forward to playing with him again.
