I highly recommend
Golf Teacher | Cornettas Golf Supreme Golf Swing It's a 20 week muscle memory course to get the professional swing. You get twice monthly meetings to correct any problems. And to work on putting and chipping. I never played golf before I came here in 2018 and now about 90% of my drives are in the air. Taking three lessons from a golf pro are not going to get you great results. You spend 10 minutes a day doing muscle memory and every week you do a little bit more of the swing. After 20 weeks you have a professional swing. Golf is fun for me now. |

How do you get started?
First, you have to purchase a golf cart. All great players have a golf cart. Then, you must purchase at least one golf club. One lady in the Villages plays the whole course with only a putter, so purchase that first. Then, you have to wear the right attire. Any of the country clubs will set you up with the proper threads. Once you have done all that, you are a golfer. Do not listen to anyone that talks about "handicaps" because that is no longer PC. You must use the term "disability." Or, you may in certain circumstances use the term "par impaired." |

How do I get started in Golf?
You might start by buying a dictionary of every 4 letter word ever invented |
#22
|
||
|
||
Or,
You might talk to a few old sailors. If you buy, they will talk. Oh Lord, and how they will talk.

It's called "golf" because all of the other "4 letter words" were taken...

As one top pro said some years back when asked the secret of playing golf, "just tee it up and hit it. And when you find it, hit it again". |

They had to name it golf because $hit and fu@k were already taken.

I would suggest that you dress inappropriately, play out of the bag of the person you ride with, play from the tips, and keep hitting the ball until it goes into the hole regardless of how many strokes it takes. Most importantly, play an executive and make sure your t time is the one right before Mortal. I can’t wait to read the new thread after that round. Just kidding : )

You should also familiarize yourself with some basic rules, especially those concerning golf etiquette and care of the course.

All the suggestions above are good except one. Don't even try to learn from watching some video. Go get lessons. If you are a lady, try Maria at the golf academy. My wife, who was not a golfer, took a one week group lesson with Maria and I was amazed at how much she learned. I have been playing for 67 years and 10 years ago when she wanted to play golf, I sent her to the professionals. The Good Golf School is also important to attend because it will teach you the etiquette of the game, which is very important and lacking in many of the so-called golfers on the courses today. Good luck and remember, enjoy the game and don't concentrate on your score at the beginning.
