Thank you Allen for all the knowledge you have given to me over the last year and I look forward to learning more with each upcoming lesson. You have helped my mental game tremendously by supporting me and helping me believe in “my game”. Just knowing that I have the support there when I need it or when I am not doing something just right, you are there to help me quickly determine what it is I am doing and FIX IT! I appreciate all the words of encouragement, wisdom and insight to better my game. I look forward to seeing what 2016 holds.

Allen Burton is a great golf coach who has helped me with both the physical and mental aspects of my golf game. Coach Burton stays up to date with the latest technology and teaching methods. Lessons with Coach Burton are always enjoyable because he is energetic with a positive attitude. Coach Burton has a great passion for the game and for helping junior golfers improve and reach their goals.

Alex Parker

Allen Burton’s golf academy has taught our daughter, Cami, how to be a great golfer. She has developed a great passion and become a student of the game. Above all, she has learned sportsmanship and further developed proper social skills through the academy. She is constantly being praised by adults and teachers for her social etiquette.

The first time I went to golf camp I was a little nervous. I had never met Mr. Burton and had no clue what to expect. However, that was many years ago; when “the only thing wrong with my game was putting.” But one of the main things I have learned with Mr. Burton over the years is that putting is the most crucial part of the game. I can always hear coach’s voice in the back of my head saying, “You bring your driver out maybe 9 holes a round, but you bring your putter out 18 times.” His academy has allowed me to flourish on my school team as well as in tournaments around Hickory.

Trevor Fulcher

Allen has been helping me with my swing for 5 or 6 years. He’s helped me in about every way from getting my swing dialed in, working on my putting, preparing me for tournaments, and encouraging me to do better on my schoolwork. Without his fun personality and expertise of the game, I wouldn’t have as great of a passion for the game and wouldn’t have the skill and knowledge that I now have.
