Today was my first opportunity to use the Toronto West (or any location) Tracer Golf Driving Range. I was very pleased with the service, software (booking and Golf App) and cleanliness. Accessing the front door required me to press a button link in one of the emails I received after the initial booking. The door opened. Great! My only comments that could help others would be if the company made it very clear that the storefront's door is on Rockcliffe Blvd and not on Alliance Ave. The second suggestion would be to show the difference between the Bays that is, Regular, Premium or Pro. I was aware of the different choices but when I choose Bay 53, it didn't show which one I purchased. No matter, I only used the driving range but it would be helpful for the next time.

As a youthful 70 year-old male, I decided to improve my golf swing before deciding to buy a new driver. I had gone to a well-respected golf fitter but after two hours of switching shafts, club heads, etc., we came to the mutual conclusion that getting fit for a golf club prior to improving the swing mechanics was the best way to go. Golftec is a well-respected member in the golf industry and so, I decided to find a location near my home. The Woodbridge location is in a Golftown store. Currently, there are two rooms ( and a possible third) with all of the Golftec equipment set up for left and right handed players. Patrick Arbour is the golf instructor at this location. After an assessment of your swing, a lesson follows. Be sure to bring a 7-iron and golf shoes. A detailed discussion with a number of graphics/videos showing positions of your swing are presented to the student. There are four colours (red, yellow, blue and green) denoting the level that you are compared to a database of data where you compare to professional or elite golfers. I can tell you that watching yourself on a monitor and seeing what your swing habits/movements are compared to what is efficient, is very humbling. After my first lesson, Patrick fixed one very clear problem for me, that is swaying off the ball. It took a week for me to internalize it but after 7 weeks (almost all consecutive), my physical movements have become more efficient and consistent and less dependent on my athletic timing. After each lesson, you have access to a proprietary Golftec App that shows videos of the Before and After each lesson. There are written notes and drills to review to support the lesson and on video of you compared to a professional golfer. As someone who is a visual learner this is very helpful. I've taken lessons over the years, but without a doubt this is the best investment that a golfer can make well before deciding to buy a set of clubs. Patrick has been extremely helpful in this journey. Thank you. I have recommended him and Golftec as the best way to get your swing in working order. It's a humbling but equally rewarding experience. Thank you.
