Alright, I'll give that a try at the range tomorrow. I'll get back on how it goes.

So lately I've been practicing with my driver a lot since it was one of my clubs that I don't really use, and now I always feel unsure while getting ready to swing to hit my irons, I usually use the 7-9 and my wedges, and with those I would usually have the face flat on the ground right behind the ball that is in the middle of my stance, shaft and hands pretty much in the center of me, and with the longer irons I have the ball a bit forward in my stance and my hands before the ball (towards the left, I'm a right handed golfer). So can someone tell me if I'm doing it correctly, if not how is it suppose to be done? Hopefully I make sense.

Thanks for the replies, and advice guys. I found a place for lessons today right down the street from my house opened about a month ago, and its around $60 an hour the cheapest place I found within 15 miles, I'm probably gonna go sign up tomorrow afternoon. Pretty excited, hopefully they turn out to be good teachers.

I went to the golf range yesterday and hit about 100 balls, then my buddy wanted to play 9 holes at the course right beside it, I sucked at the range but decided to just try it out anyways. On the first 2 holes I did really bad I kept missing but the 2 people behind us didn't care, but when we got to the third hole I start to pick up the pace and didn't slow anyone down after that. I had a blast haven't really done anything that fun lately, now I just wanna get better so I'll probably take some lessons after my upper body and hands are less sore.

I'll probably go to the range on Sunday try it out for the day then probably book some there. Thanks for the help. I'm actually completely serious, sorry if I'm wrong but I thought getting fitted means switching shafts, and I thought getting them fitted would mean less of a chance hurting them. Is it such a bad thing to care about some that is expensive?

Hi, I recently thought about golfing since I received my golf clubs as a gift around 8 months ago. I was wondering if I should take some lessons (which I don't know if I wanna do), and getting the clubs fitted, but would that mean I should know how to play first before I get them fitted? I don't know much about golf at all but I think my clubs might be long, does that mean I have to get new shafts? and would it be safe to use as it is? I don't really wanna damage them since they cost around 2k. On Sunday I might head to the range with a buddy to practice for a few hours, and he said that we should go to the course after the range. Is that a bad idea since this will be the first time? Sorry for all the questions, hopefully someone can clear my mind. Thanks
