I will be getting my first golf lesson from our club pro. I'm self taught so I have no idea what to expect. Is their any suggestions you can give me to help be prepared? What can I expect him to cover?

Thanks.

I'm assuming with a 20 handicap you know the basic fundamentals of golf so really it could be whatever you make of it. Anytime I've had lessons I've had the pro ask me what I want to work on and go from there. I think of it this way, you're paying for lessons why not work on what you feel your weaknesses are? Lessons are not cheap.

I'm  inconsistent with my driver, plus I seem to blow up with my irons on a few holes. After I hit one in the woods with my driver, the next drive is usually straight down the middle.  With my irons I seem to just loose it (shank) and it's hard to get back to par golf. I played today and shot a 89. my putter and chipping is the only part of my game that I'm happy with.

I'm playing next Tuesday and Thursday, then the lesson Friday morning.

I'm very stressed out over my round today!

Thanks guys!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By 5amZ · Posted

      Day 24 9-7 Worked on lower body movement with full swing. Focused on hips. Need to work on setup a bit. Was hoping to get to the short game area today, stayed home and recorded some swings instead. I've come to the conclusion I learn the most with my practice setup at home, just a net and a hitting strip. Overall happy with the progress this week.

      Day 2 (September 7), still with the grip and the medicine ball (using weights).   Still on vacation and really aching to be able to do a full practice the way I'd be able to at home.  Also bought a 1/2" section of pipe today at the hardware store and have been regularly practicing the grip with that too while watching Sunday football with the family.

      Day 1: Worked on feels for wedge swings. Primarily getting everything to move from the top of the backswing in the correct sequence.

      Day 6 (7 Sep 25) - Afternoon pitch session with the 54 and 58 in the backyard. Keys: Alignment - Setup - Smooth swing thru - working on each to be as “automatic” as possible - not mindless, but deliberately repeatable. I have found the precision required to properly execute carries well into the full swings.

      180% is the threshold. But yeah, many of them are close to 200%. Not 120 and 123%. People generate speed differently. I think your speed will come more easily when this stuff gets sorted out. Stay disciplined. Stay on the road. You can't get off exit 74 before you hit exit 32.
