Welcome to your next Chapter.
From my experience you don't really learn golf in the same way that you learn other things. You can learn the rules and techniques, but you really have to experience hitting the ball. If you truly have never played golf, I would recommend that you start at a driving range. Get the experience of hitting a small ball that is 5 to 7 feet from your eyes and have it go in the direction you intend. Once you have conquered that feeling then try the executive courses. However, recognize that those many of us who have played these courses still miss the ball or hit it into strange places,
Putting the ball is a whole different experience. There are several putting only courses, and or pitch and putt courses.
