Lessons.....transition....

During the course of the Toronto winters I will be taking golfing lessons. I am wondering how far apart those lessons should be spaced? I think once a week doesn't provide for enough practise time in between the lessons. Are two lessons (45 minutes each per month, over the course of 3 months adequate....) what is the norm.... your thought are always appreciated.

Also, for my irons, without the golf ball in front of me my forum and pivot are fine. With the ball in front of me it throws me off and I don't pivot (transfer my weight) - I am fine with my woods on this point. when I am learning how to hit the ball and transfer my weight properly should I first be foucsing on my swing and transition or striking the ball.....

Finally, I bough some BB pellets, and cut a whole in the the grip of my club and filled it with pellets in an effort of create an evenly weighted club - at the end of the day the amount of pellets it took to fill the shaft had a negligible effect on the clubs weight..... back to the drawing board for this one!

Hi James,

The space between lessons should be solely dictated by how much you can practice between them. So if you don't think you can get the requisite practice in, either a) reschedule if the lessons is coming 'too quickly', or b) schedule your lessons further apart if your practice schedule is unlikely to change.

As far as the BB thing is concerned, I'm not sure what you were trying to accomplish. A heavy training club? Or were you trying to backweight to make the clubhead feel lighter?
