Finally taking the lessons plunge

[dufferman]

Since the rain is still coming thick and fast, I've decided to take the plunge and book some lessons. I've played 3 times this year at 2 different courses, shooting 86, 98 & 96. The first round the ground & course was much drier, the 2nd & 3rd was a bit of a washout. I went to the range yesterday and couldn't hit a damn thing, it was embarrassing.

I've had lessons before (over 2 years ago) and plenty of them at that, so my swing is this franken-swing of 3 or 4 different pros. This leads to my swing thoughts being different each week... It's like pulling a swing out of a hat. Whichever I get that day I'll go out with. So frustrating.

Hopefully this Thursday I'll be able to get something going again, and although I'm not expecting a miracle, I at least hope by the time I do play next I'll be able to get something consistent going.

Here's to dreaming...

I started playing again in the summer and managed an 86 after about a month back i then gave it up (silly ass) and sold all my stuff i had bought . I have now just bought a new set of cobra amp irons but lots more to buy yet , the wife is chuffed to bits , not! . I have often pondered lessons but i would love to know if a pro could give lessons to a kack handed player?
Hope the lessons work out for you

Principals are just the same. Just remember when he says keep your left arm straight he means your right.

I'm having lessons from a guy called Pedro at Pine Ridge golf club. I did think it was a wind up when I booked, or that I'd accidentally called a Salsa club instead...

The lesson went well. I liked the fact he wasn't at all pushy with booking other lessons, and instead said come back when I'm ready. Only stance & back swing changes in the lesson, although there is a big change already. Excited to get something much more consistent going, compared to my last swing!
