• Correct set up is essential as this will affect everything thereafter.

• Self confidence/belief in yourself (whether you have played or not).

• Practice makes perfect’ is not always true if you are practicing bad habits, therefore learn the correct technique & understand the reasons why.

• We are all individuals therefore there is no such thing as a perfect swing as we are all different shapes, heights, ages etc.

• The grip is paramount to successful golf as believe it or not it is the only contact with the club therefore enabling other aspects of the swing to be easier.

• Modern day equipment is easier to use as both irons & woods have larger ‘sweet spots’ however if you are using older equipment new grips are essential for greater control.

• Don’t listen to your friends as often the way they put over a comment/advice could be misleading.

• Do not read instructional books or watch programmes / videos as they tell you what to do and not explain what to do & you could interprete what is said incorrectly.

• When taking lessons to learn or enhance your game be realistic in your progress, relate it to starting a new job, you will not learn it over night.

• It is one of the most frustrating games I have ever played, it is also one of the most rewarding, pleasurable & social game you will ever play therefore persevere at it.
