I have been playing golf for 65 years. I have shot my age 3 times. I carried a low single digit handicap for 30+ years. I have had coaches ranging from high end Class A pros, to Ryder Cup players, to coaches for Tour Players. I have seen and learned a lot. My suggestion is simple. Buy a used set of quality clubs. Get fit by a professional. Take lessons from one pro. Don't confuse it all by looking at a multitude of YouTube videos. And for seniors, start a fitness program and focus on golf specific exercises and stretches. The TItleist Performance Institute has a wealth of information on this subject. And as Lee Travino once said - "I don't take lessons from someone who can't beat me."
