It's possible to spend money on the resources available to help develop a good swing. But the swing itself can only come from dedication and proper practice.

Of all the items you listed, only lessons can help your swing. Everything else is superfluous. Just because you can buy tap shoes doesn't make you Fred Astaire.

Ragontona pretty much summed up my thoughts as well. Lessons can only take you so far, the rest is up to you. Improvement comes from practice and dedication to the game.

I see so many people at the range who have all the latest and greatest in golg equipment, but they cant make a proper swing to save their lives.

I would say yes by find out what your doing wrong, try to fix it and then practice practice, practice. Your swing is different then everyone elses, you need to find what works the best for you. Make sure those lessons are not changing your whole swing unless you really have bad mechanics.

My dad was a club pro & I saw him play with rental ladies clubs and shoot 75. He said the swing is the thing,do not expect the tools to do the work. Just wondering what others think. OK

I think you're pulling all of our chains, and I'm getting tired of it. A guy with an 8 index doesn't ask these questions.

I barely wanted to post a reply to this thread, but did, and was hoping that would put an end to it. Apparently, it didn't work.
