| Tip 1: Always use your own clubs during lessons. This is a feel game you need to learn to get the feel for wat your playing with . But whether or not those clubs are right for you is another question.
Tip 2: If you have a set already i would suggest getting fit as closely as possible (your shafts might be to strong for you etc). You may not see the results right now or why on earth its important but later on you will. Most importantly its working on your hand eye cordnation since your an older(as in not a kid) person picking up the game it sounds like.
Tip 3: Fundementals is key atm ...Forget hitting the ball. that should be the least bit concentration. Hitting a ball may make you look good or be cool. But trust me a good swing and fundementals will get you further in the long run and help you enjoy the game more. So Grip and setup right now is very important.
tip 4: Work on short swings with say like a pitching wedge or 9 iron. I choose this club because its shorter club and has loft to help you get the ball in the air and i think its easier then a sand or lob wedge for a beginner. Try to take the club back to about waist high keep your feet quite and still and let your upper body and waist turn. and just hit lil pitch shots then as you start getting this down get a lil longer swing and keep going till you feel comfortable
as long as you work on your fundamentals grip setup keeping your head still and lvl it'll come eventually. Its a longer process then riding a bike and will take time. |
