First lesson with new coach

[Evesdad]

So after struggling with my game over the winter I gave in and booked a course of lessons. Chose a coach recommended by my playing partners which is a bit further than I wanted to travel but had a good deal on through Groupon of 5 lessons for £35. Before my first session I had sorted one of my first problrms of topping the ball alot by videoing my swing in the garden and noticed my right leg collapsing on the back swing in an effort to get hip turn! So had been working on that while waiting for my first session on Friday.

Anyway first session went well a slight tweak on my grip to strengthen it a little was the first thing, second was a wider and fuller take away, my left arm bent slightly and i didn't turn my shoulders fully.

Other than that he was quite happy overall, which meant I was to and I'm not a complete lost cause!!

So next lesson on 1st of may and working on full turn and weight transfer.

Overall we got on really well and understood each other well which is what I was looking for.

Round on Saturday was mixed, front nine was pants as I expected with working on the changes but the back nine everything started to click and put down some good scores!!

Thanks for reading and I'm now looking forward to the season!

Glad it worked out. Ironically I had a short game lesson with my old coach. It was booked and paid for months ago and postponed several times (with my mum not being well) and I'd moved to the current guy in December and forgotten al about it. It was quite a good lesson as it goes and the guy still talks a lot of sense and gets the message across. However the new guy has got me swinging much better so I know where I'm sticking

It was frustrating as finished the season really well and slowly deteriorated. I went into information overload trying to stop the slide but made it worse!! New coach wants to clear my mind and keep things simple, which is good news lol!! The only good thing from the winter was my short game!! Pitching and chipping have improved ten fold!

It's good when it starts to work isn't it! Went back to a guy I used before recently and within three weeks has made such a difference to my game, bad shots before we're unpredictable hooks slices blocks they were all there now it is much tighter and is leading to far better scoring need to work on short game a bit though!!
