Though I have always been a decent athlete, I am really stuck with my golf game. I need some advice: books, CDs, anything.
I took up the game last year after playing casually decades ago. Signed up for over 4 months of nearly weekly lessons with Golftech, where they wire you up and tell you what's wrong with your swing in more detail that you really need. I did improve, and my swing looks better.
But on the course I can't make consistent quality contact; my long shots fly left, right, and occasionally perfect. My short game has me playing volleyball back and forth over the green half the time. I typically hit 98-100 for 18 holes. Aaarrggghh.
I know I haven't put enough time in at the range. I need more lessons, hopefully not in a hitting cage. Blah blah blah.
Any tips or ideas about taking it to the next level (for me that means consistently in the 90s? I might just have to wait for FIRE so I can put more time in, and I love going out with my buddies but there's gotta be a way to take that next step.
