Many times the learning we might be getting is useful yet when the "technical" aspects of the learning are still excessively conscious, we get lost in our head. Not the best way to play golf. Notice the word "play." This is what we should be doing. Not "working" on our game when on the course. This is a critical distinction every players needs to learn if they really want to play carefree golf and play the game naturally. I smiled at your comments about getting worse after the lessons. What's important is that you have this awareness now and you, by what I'm hearing, are more of a natural learner. I recommend simply looking at some photos of great swings, maybe glance at a couple videos and then stand in your front room and imagine swinging the way you saw. Swinging like the photo or video you saw isn't what matters. The kinesthetic process combined with your imagination is what matters most. Feel it inside. This imaginary work is some of the best exercise you can do. I never had a lesson and play to a 4 cap. All from "seeing" and "feeling". Stick to how you learn and the 70's are in sight for you!

At one point I had the "62-point" checklist going on in my head. I think the goal for most amateurs should be to "simplify your golf swing". Maybe one or two swing thoughts at the most.

I can really see where your coming from, the first time i played golf about 12 months ago now i shot in the 90s and again in my next couple of rounds, the rest of my four-ball where raving, After about 6 weeks they got me to go for a couple of lessons at the local range,
after my lessons i had a 2 week break from playing but practiced of the things i was thought, my next game came up and it was a disaster, I had so much junk in my head i forgot to do what came natural to me in the first place, it took me eight months to break 100 after that now i,m in the 80s,, I know i need a lesson to get into the 70s but i,m afraid they will destroy all the hard work i put in to get back to where i am now,..

my kindest regards Thomas
