Golf Lessons - Are They Right For You?
If you've been thinking about taking up golf, or if you're a
golfer in search of a better game, you may have considered golf
lessons. But are golf lessons really beneficial? And how do you
find a pro who will offer good advice?
There are some who swear that lessons are vital and others who
say that practice is the only thing that will improve your golf
game. The truth seems to lie somewhere in the middle. But before
you drop your coach or sign up for lessons, consider what it is
that you hope golf lessons will accomplish. Outlining your goals
may help you decide whether you truly need lessons or simply
more time on the course.
If you play with others who play exceptionally well, you may
want to find someone to give you some help with your game.
Whether that's a paid coach or merely a friend who plays well is
strictly a personal choice. Getting some pointers and tips may
be a good way to ensure that you don't totally embarrass
yourself in front of other players.
If you're serious about the game, you've probably been involved
long enough that you don't need advice on whether to get a
coach. But if you've only recently discovered the joy of
golfing, you may find yourself looking for a way to improve your
game. Golf lessons could very well be the answer.
Some people say that lessons give them a set time to practice
and an opportunity to completely focus on the game. You'll
typically be less interrupted than if you were playing on your
own, stopping to chat with friends along the way. But others say
the simple fact of having someone scrutinizing every move and
offering constant advice is more distracting than
helpful.
Decide whether you're one of those who accept direction and
works well in that situation. That's a major clue as to whether
golf lessons are a good idea.
Remember that a golf coach's job is to teach you to golf
correctly. That means that there are some habits that he (or
she) will be trying to ingrain and others they'll be trying to
break. While golfing correctly is a terrific goal, many golfers
have some bad habits that they tout as benefiting their game.
Changing your grip, adjusting your stance or even using
different equipment may be among the "must do" list from your
coach. You may resist those changes. You have two options. You
can do your best to follow the instructions, or you can explain
that you aren't planning to change that particular habit. If you
don't plan to change, you may need to reexamine your decision to
take lessons. Without following directions, lessons may become a
waste of time and effort on both parts, and money on yours.
Golf lessons are great for some people. It's a personal decision
whether you are one of those who will benefit from a coach -
formal or informal. But remember that the most important thing
to improve your golf game is simply practice.
