| 233.1 | "INDOOR GOLF RANGE" | WILMER::GLASS | | Mon Mar 21 1988 18:35 | 9 |
| Tom,
David has a very good reputation as a teacher.
The indoor range is about where Rt 9 and the Mass Pike join.It is
in the old motel across from the Mexican restaurant on RT9 and in
the East bound lane of RT9.The pro is Kurt S.from Framingham CC
and you can call him at the pro shop.He also makes clubs!!!!
Good luck and practice makes perfect as evidenced by Ben Hogan.

| Re. 0 -
Dave cured my shank in about 10 minutes; he's a very fine teacher.
And I bought a new driver from him for my father-in-law; a beautiful
piece of work it is, too! I recommend him very highly on both counts.

| Dave Hueser is one of the best teaching Pro's in this area. I had
a
complete set of clubs made by Dave for a Christmas present. They
were very good.
Good luck with your lessons, he helped me drop 10 shots off my
handicap in one season. Went from shooting around 100 to 88-90.

| 233.4 | Report on the first lesson | MSD27::FITZPATRICK | Speaking of non-sequiturs... | Tue Mar 29 1988 10:14 | 24 |
| Well, I had my first lesson yesterday. Dave is fantastic!
He not only knows what he's talking about, but he's extremely friendly
and encouraging as well. Even when he was telling me about some
major flaws in my swing, he kept stressing the good points,
complimenting me on the parts I do well.
He videotaped my swing, and we went over it from address to
follow through. I had never watched myself swing a club before,
and being able to see it made everything that he was telling me
make sense. I also got to swing a club that he makes. It was a
Tour Limited perimiter weighted 5 iron. The difference between
that and my uncle's old "muscle-back" club was just unbelievable.
I'm definitely buying a new set.
Apparently, Dave makes many of the clubs sold at the Wayland
CC and Stow Acres pro shops. He quoted me a price of $500-$520
for a set of 3-9 irons, PW, SW, and 1,3 and 5 metal woods, plus
a putter. This seems to be a bit higher than some of the prices
I've seen at Nevada Bob's or Herman's, but my feeling is that it's
worth it since he'll fix any problems for free. He even told me
that I could buy the clubs, play with them for a while, and if I
don't like them I can return them.
The next lesson is next week. I pick up the clubs then, too.
I can't wait.

there this year), at Wayland CC, and sometimes at his house in Ashland.
His phone number is (617)881-5091. You won't be disappointed.

| Good point - Dave is not only a fine technical tutor, his manner
is like that of an old-fashioned country doctor: warm and encour-
aging. He doesn't make you feel like a jerk (even while you're both
watching yourself on video tape, a humbling experience if there
ever was one). My wife and I have signed up for group lessons with
him at Wayland starting a week from Monday (they're for beginners,
but we both feel certain we'll derive a lot of good from going back
to the fundamentals). His rates are a lot lower than for individual
lessons, but if you're struggling with a particular problem (like
an incurable shank), the private lesson is worth every penny, and
is a lot cheaper than psychoanalysis, which is where you're headed
if you try to cure yourself (or, worse, ask your golf partner for
help)!
