Playing ...

"I doubt if I have ever seen a golf ball hit with greater precision, not even by Ben Hogan himself. The plane of her swing could not be truer and her rhythm, her tempo and her balance are faultless. Sheer delight to watch and the setting and weather matched the occasion ... Miss Stewart's figures speak for themselves - two under par, with consummate ease"
- John Campbell, The Sunday Telegraph, May 22, 1983. On the occasion of the Scottish Women's Amateur Championship Final at North Berwick.

"A beautiful exhibition of golf by Gillian Stewart in the final of the Scottish Ladies Championship at North Berwick culminated in a blaze of brilliance to give her a 3 and 1 win. In winning, the 24-year old Miss Stewart was two under par for the seventeen holes played. She has a measured rhythm and start to the down swing on her full shots which by the time she comes to putt, comes close enough to evoke the tales they used to tell of Macdonald Smith ... "

Teaching ...

"I've never had a lesson which had such a dramatic effect on my game. My first round afterward was at Nairn and I shot 4 over - astounding!!! - I haven't done that in years!" - Frazer McGinn, 9 h'cap, Caymen Islands.

"I always look forward to Gillian's lessons and feel very lucky to have the benefit of her vast experience and wisdom. Her expertise comes across strongly and with clarity. She is excellent at adapting technique to individual needs and always gives her undivided attention. The importance of the mental side is also very much part of Gillian's approach and I have found her ideas refreshing and very helpful. Although hard work and concentration are central her to time with you she has a lovely sense of humour, which makes her lessons most enjoyable" - Marion Richards, 12 h'cap, Guernsey.

"During the last three years my game has improved with Gillian's help from an 18 handicap to 12.  Her approach to teaching is very professional, her instructions are clear and concise and each lesson is followed up with lesson notes. Her enthusiasm and dry sense of humour have made the lessons most enjoyable. My goal now is to get to single figures!" - Helen Stuart, 12 h'cap, Muir of Ord.

"I have been having lessons from Gillian for just over two years. As a result, the quality of my ball striking has greatly improved. I now have a far better understanding of my golf swing which allows me to self diagnose faults. Now the mental side of the game needs some attention and we are currently working on this. What I like is that her approach is truly holistic" - James Taylor, 9 h'cap, Nairn.
