If you're just starting to golf, and consider yourself a beginner. Golf swing instruction is critical to your short-term AND long-term success. Having a basic understanding of golf swing technique will jumpstart your potential and save years of heartache and frustration.

I have heard a statistic that really amazed me. For every golfer who stops playing golf, there is someone who picks the game up. That is why the number of golfers is not growing, but neither is it going down.

Golf can be one of the most challenging games you'll every play...and if you're looking for a challenge...you've found it!You would think that hitting a golf ball straight seems pretty basic right? Well...guess what...it isn't. For every good shot you hit in golf, you will hit a god awful one. I've been there more times than I can count...

I keep coming back for more.

Understanding your golf swing via instruction can really give you a headstart. You can avoid all the pitfalls a beginning golfer goes through trying to learn it on their own. For example, slicing the ball. Most beginners who slice will continue to slice for a long time. Why? Because they don't take the time or get the proper instruction to find out what causes a slice and how to correct it. With proper golf swing instruction, a beginner will never have to deal with it. If you have a swing fault, go see your pro, get on video, and do the proper drills to correct it. It's that simple!Beginning golfers face many hurdles in getting better at golf, but with the proper guidance and advice, a beginner can see real improvement, quickly! Who knows...you may even break 80 before you know it!
