Re: What if lessons don't help?

hi
i agree 8 weeks is not enough to to get a good swing set up.
i remember we have a 168 yard par 3 and i use to use a driver to reach it when i first started, now i hit 6 iron.
but it took time and lots of work to get ride of the bad things i had picked up learning how to swing out books without fully understanding what i was doing wrong and doing things like ajusting my grip and stance to stop me hitting a slice when it was my out to in swing that was at fault and it took a pro to talk me unto ajusting my swing as i thought i had a good swing but i was so wrong,
i think i'm a good golfer now buts its only because i was taught the basics and fundmentals early, it tool me 6/7 years before i changed and after i did i found i could hit shots i never could pull off before. that was over 20 years ago and i am so glad i met the pro back them.
