Got my first real lesson

When I started golfing last winter I took a course at the local community course for an intro to golf.


Today I finally took another lesson with the local PGA pro at the course. Been trying to correct my wicked slice for the past couple months not getting very far.

The pro had me first hit a couple balls using my fav club (lob wedge) then I went to the driver. He noticed I had a good swing path and was on a good plane.

He had me transfer my weight more to my back foot on the back swing to make sure I fully transferred my weight. Also had me tilt my head up slightly. Also had my drive my hands downward instead of lifting which was causing me to hit some balls thin.

These small changes totally fixed my swing. I was hitting the ball further. Started to even get a draw out of some balls.

It feels great

I really liked the coach. He was really impressed with the distance I was getting. He gave me his home number and said if I ever had any questions to just give me a call and he can help me over the phone. Also said to give him a call in a couple weeks and let him know how everythings working out.
