I certainly would encourage you and everyone to give it a try. Private instruction can be a bit pricey, but is well worth it to avoid starting out with bad habits. Most driving ranges and golf courses have a teaching pro on staff. They have all the clubs for you to use too so you don't have to buy before you get addicted!

There is a guy i work with that actually had private instruction and the pricing wasnt that bad.. i think maybe because he knew him, i will have to ask him some questions about that, because i would love to learn properly - and would love to learn prior to putting money into buying clubs, etc..

the whole thought is kind of exciting..
when i was young, i used to escape the homelife and go to the golf course, we lived in a small country community which had a school, a store and a golf course.. i would often sit and watch and follow golfers around for hours and found much peace there, actually.. and always wanted to learn..♥

thanks for the encouragement and advice!
