Professional help.

Went for some coaching today, not my local pro, it was at another golf club with a pro I knew years back and I came away with a smile on my face. High or low handicap, if your game is not what you know it should be then go see the man. If you have an inconsistency or a problem that niggles away at your game, get professional help.

The funny thing is, and this is really my point, when I turned up in the car park a couple of guys who I knew asked why I was there. I told them why and one said I thought you were a 6 handicapper, seemingly thinking you don’t need coaching when you get to a certain level.

To think I’ve hitting all those wayward shots with an inbuilt flaw that I never knew existed. Even if you’re playing good the odd tweak here and there wont go amiss.

TOMO, couldn't agree with you more. My regret is not going more often, and the reason I don't is because a) I like to have time for plenty of practice aftewards (3-4 sessions) and b) it makes stepping onto the course first time out a bit scary, as (as we all know) we tend to get worse before better!! It is amazing what "the man" will spot though; even small things like standing too narrow or bad alignment, even a good player (like yourself, no doubt) will get a bit out of sorts with things like this.

I play off of 5 Tomo, like yourself a decent enough player and like yourself I still go for lessons. I try to get one every 4-6 weeks when playing regularly as the old faults always creap back in!

Best advice anyone can give is what you said tomo, go and see your local pro for a lesson or 6!

Yes guys we spend a small fortune on fees, clubs, balls, waterproofs, shoes and the like. Once every few weeks just spend a little time and money with the pro and I’ll bet you won’t be in such a hurry to change your driver or irons. See the pro and save money.

I've got a lesson booked for tomorrow. Nothing significantly wrong I don't think but feel I'm taking the club away too wide resulting in a very steep backswing. I can normally get back to the ball okay but a few pull hooks or weak slices creeping in so time for the expert to have a look

Homer, let us know how you got on.
