By all means find a good local teacher. That's by far the best way to learn the mechanics of the golf swing.
My wife has written a book GoodShot! Golf that describes a unique and structured way to learn how to play and enjoy golf as a beginner while you're still learning the basics. The book is targeted to women, but really applies to any beginner.
It's available from Amazon and Barnes and Noble as well as from our website (not sure if I'm allowed to provide a link). Please PM me if you're interested in more details
