.......that in all other parts of life we are thought and learn our trade's 1st before trying to master them.....

Having a deep thinking sunday evening folks...
When we're born we learn to crawl before we walk,walk before we run,run before we cycle..
We take lessons before we learn to drive, same goes for swimming..Lesson's again...

Think about it for a moment if we could learn the game without picking up bad habits how much better do you think we'd be?

How much easier would the game of golf be to us if we all had lessons before we decided to buy into technology and decide that some of us have ego's bigger than our character allows....

Some food for thought!
 
But then you don't have football lessons, do you?

Rooney, Ronaldo, Zidane would have simply played the game for hours and hours before they ever came close to a football coach.

Plus, I believe, Bubba Watson never had a lesson.

If you'd had a coach right from the start then you'd probably be better - perhaps, but I believe that natural talent will shine through whatever.
 
I had lessons as a kid and got the basics right from the start. I think that really was the foundation on which my soujourn into single figures was built on. I had to work hard as it never came naturally and I think once I left the game around 18-19 and came back without refreshers the problems started. Once there, the major flaws became too ingrained and I didn't have the inclination to work them out with or without coaching. Now it's probably too late and I feel I'm always playing catch up with myself
 
I agree with AW, I certainly think that you have to have natural ability,but also if you have had proper lessons from the start,firmly believe you would be a better player.. Oh well Homers blown that theory out of the water..LOL..
