My wife and I took our first golf lesson on Sunday with a former PGA player. Prior to this lesson, we have never played before. As expected, I was horrible; however, it was very fun and I'm excited and eager to practice again. Our next lesson is this coming Saturday. I think we'll take consistent lessons for at least six months.

After the lesson, we went to dicks sporting goods and bought his and her golf sets and a glove each.

The instructor's remarks to me were:

1. "Stop thinking"
2. "Sweep it, don't swing it baby"
3. "You're trying to show off and hit it"
4. "You look like a monkey f*%king a basketball"


Cool guy though

Sounds like a good time.

After about 6 practice sessions, I played my first 18 holes in about 6 years on Saturday. I shot a 94.

I really want to get into it. I'm a good athlete and usually pick up most things quick but I just KNOW that golf is gonna seem impossible at first.

patience... patience... don't swing the club like a baseball bat...

Golf lessons are vital. I usually go at least once a year. Maybe more so this year cause im playing tournaments.
