That's some bizarre pricing.

As for the pricing, you're telling me!? I actually checked back with the two places and apparently they altered their charges since . It's $55USD for a 1/2 hour lesson + video analysis and take home DVD of your lesson. It's with "an 11 year PGA professional Robert Mauer". Not sure if that gives him significant credibility or what, but that's the cost. The second place (home course) is $65USD for a 45 minute lesson with an assistant PGA professional, $75 with the head PGA professional at that course. Seems expensive compared to the clarinet lessons I used to take...is this generally the going rate?

Again, thanks for all the comments and advice!

Also another question - my X-14's are fitted with Big Bertha Light Flex Graphite shafts - I bought them used at Golfsmith and as such didn't really have a choice as to what shaft style I wanted with my budget. They hit well, but I wonder if some of the problem I'm having finding consistency among other things is due to the shaft flex. I'm a 6'2'' 195lb. young man and probably have a swing speed that exceeds optimal light flex shaft speed (while testing out hybrids at a fitting center I was told I swing in the low to mid 80s).

I'm sure that with the proper instruction I should be able to work around this, as well as try and "contain myself" from grip it and rip it speed...but what are your thoughts on shaft style? Is this a huge problem or is it still ok?

I would add a 60 degree wedge. I agree with the previous posts about getting lessons. They will help you understand fundamentals and *teach you how to practice*.
Best of Luck
