It has never easy asking for help, but in golf, it is practically a necessity. Unfortunately, we often ask our friends and partners, when in reality we should take a lesson or two with a professional, usually called the Club Pro.
We probably think that a Pro would criticize us too harshly, but in fact,they are honest, positive and usually very helpful.
Lessons at the local golf course aren't as expensive as you might think and they are worth it because your game will improve more rapidly and cause you less frustration, making the game much more enjoyable for you.
It is of utmost importance to be absolutely honest about your game. The Pro will ask you what you want to start with: driving, chipping, putting or whatever you feel you need help with.
Listen carefully and follow the Pro's instructions. You may have doubts if the Pro changes your stance, your grip or your swing, but really, the Pro does know best.
Oh and don't hesitate to ask the Pro golfer any questions you may have and don't worry about whether your question or concern may sound stupid - they've heard it all before and will not make you feel like an idiot for inquiring. If you don't get it, tell the Pro that you do not understand. You should never walk away from a lesson with unanswered questions.
For instance, a strategy might be to concentrate on one thing during a lesson, or on several things. You might start with a lesson on driving; get the grip, the stance, the swing and the follow-through right in one lesson and then practice it 'for real' for a few weeks until you feel that you've got it more or less right. Next time, you might decide you need help with your short game, or the putting.
You've bought the set of golf clubs and it isn't cheap, is it? So, it doesn't make sense not to learn how to use it to it's best advantage thereby improving your game and abilities, does it?
