Hello everyone!

Hello Everyone,

Sorry to bother you all with such a question but i am new to golf. By new i mean i have played once. The one time i played i shot a 56 (+20) I have never ever played golf before because i have always thought it was stupid. Much to my poor assumption i ended up loving it. Now i am 5"10 and am 15, i am a lefty and i really want to keep golfing. Did i do as bad as the person i played with made me feel like i did or did i do somewhat decent. i truly do not know much about golf so sorry if this is a stupid commonly asked question. Its hard getting help from the person i play with because he is right handed and is my age so he is not a very good teacher... Any tips whether it is a youtube video or anything would be appreciated.

thanks, TheNewKid

Edit: by the way if it helps i play baseball football and basketball but am thinking of narrowing it down a little

I'd say that's very good for just playing your first 9 holes. Check out Mark Crossfield's videos on YouTube. He has 2 channels, "Mark Crossfield" and "4golfonline". He has helped me tremendously and I have learned a lot about my swing and the golf swing in general because of him. I'd be pretty surprised if his videos don't help your game.

Thank you!

You're welcome. Glad I could help. Also, I suggest making a swing video for the Member Swing section of the site so people can give you swing tips, drills you dhould practice based on your swing, and advice.
