        Buy this, it is indeed a Masterclass. It's just like having your very own playing lesson

        Paul's instruction is clear, comprehensive and beautifully presented.  Mostly filmed on his short game area or on the golf course Paul guides you through the sort of situations every golfer will experience during an actual round.  It's just like you are having your very own playing lesson.  From tee to green this App offers instruction on the total game and I recommend it to players of all levels.

        The App is superb value for money. Highly recommended!

        Well thought out, very easy to navigate through each of the comprehensive sections. Every aspect of the golf game is covered in great detail. I'm looking forward to implementing the techniques to improve my game. Paul is a great teacher and the App is superb value for money. Highly recommend

        A brilliant opportunity to work on your game

        Paul is a great teacher and to have the resources at your fingertips is a brilliant opportunity for you to work on your game.

        It's the perfect way to focus on one part of your game at a time with clear demonstration and commentary by Paul on each shot

        Myself and a couple of mates attended a two half-day masterclass at Paul Foston's Academy in Kent in mid-January. We covered most aspects of the short game on Paul's excellent outdoor facility on day 1. On Day 2 we went indoors for analysis of our iron and wood play. Both sessions were well thought out and brilliantly taught. I have since bought Paul's App which I dip into every week. It's the perfect way to focus on one part of your game at a time with a clear demonstration and commentary by Paul on each shot, whether it be the long bunker, the fairway wood or playing out of the rough. It's all covered. I find it a great way to back the lessons learned on site. It comes at a very reasonable price for the comprehensive content. Paul and his wife are excellent hosts, with luxurious rooms to rent and the tea and home made cakes plus the full English breakfast alone made our couple of days experience worthwhile! Highly recommended

        It's like having your own Coach!

        I have had lessons with Paul for several years and he has not only improved my game, more importantly he's helped me enjoy playing more and even practice too. I was a mid handicapper getting frustrated by my lack of progress despite umpteen lessons with a professional but Paul has turned my game around and my attitude towards it. I used to think practice was about banging ball after ball on the range, but I now have drills to follow which are fun but more importantly work. The App is great because it allows me to remember exactly what Paul explained to me, stopping me falling back into old habits. Five minutes just to work on an area of the game, correct a problem or just hear Paul's reassuring explanations is a fabulous tool. Whether you've had lessons with him or not this App will help golfers regardless of their experience or standard.

        It has to be the most valuable golfing aid ever

        You will not be sorry once you have purchased this App. It covers every aspect of whatever you want to know about your golf, from beginner to the hardened scratch golfer. It has to be the most valuable golfing aid ever, something you can keep and treasure forever. You will find that there will always be those little things that creep back into your game, no problem as you will find the solution here. I personally have had many lessons with Paul over the years and I cannot praise enough his methods of teaching and getting things over to you that you can understand and put into practice. This App is the next best thing to actually being there with Paul. Enjoy it. Again I repeat, you will not be sorry.

        Brilliant golf lesson App.  Well worth the money, would recommend for all levels as its so easy to follow

        Having purchase the App by recommendation, I can honestly say it's a great tool for new golfers to the game who have never played golf before. And also for golfers who have played for years, brilliant tips. It covers every aspect of the game which is so helpful and very easy to get to the part you are after if needed. Well worth the money as it has instructions of hundreds of pounds worth of technical advice. Would recommend for all levels as it's so easy to follow. What I also like is Paul demonstrates all the shots he wants you to play/practice. So go out and purchase, it will save you shots per round and get your handicap down. Great App.

        He has taken 10 strokes off my handicap in a year & this App can do the same for you.  Suitable for a Beginner but Paul has a deep understanding of swing dynamics & techniques needed to teach the Tour Player

        I am a low handicap player who has had lessons from Paul and his style is straightforward, suitable for Beginners, but he has a deep understanding of swing dynamics and techniques needed to teach a Pro.  He has taken 10 strokes off my handicap in a year and this App can do the same for you if you take it to the practice ground with you.  This App captures all areas of the golf game and costs a little more than on physical lesson.  The App is robust, easy to use and the videos are short and simple to follow.  I cannot recommend this enough

        This App is a 'Must Have' and should be regarded as an integral component part of your golf equipment

        My wife (a beginner) and I (11 hcp) had a block of lessons with Paul. They were fantastic, we both learnt so much that improved and continues to improve our games.
        The ‘My Golf Masterclass’ App is just like having Paul standing next to you during your practice sessions passing on his knowledge and wisdom.
        This App is a ‘must have’  and should be regarded as an integral component part of your golf equipment.
