Ok my golf forum friends, I have a serious question. I have been fairly athletic all my life, played HS football, raced MotoCross, water ski and wakeboard. I've taken 2 rounds of lessons, the 1st being a group setting, the 2nd being three 1 hour private lessons. I play on the average 3 times a week at least, sometimes more. I've been told I have a pretty good looking swing. The video I posted was not a good indication the more I look at it. Anyway, I swear, it seems the more I try to improve, the worse I get. For a while there I was shooting legit mid 80's, one round of 81, on my home par 75 course. Now I'm struggling to break 100, shooting high 90's most of the time, a mid 90 thrown in once in a while by the golfing God's just to keep me coming back.
On the days my driver is working for me, I can get it out there 280-300 yards and straight, to bad those days are becoming fewer and farther between here lately it seems. My main problem is a total lack of any consistency with my irons. I'll hit a couple of shots that do exactly what I'd envisioned, and then I'll top the heck out of the next 2, or $hank one off to the right or yank one so far left it looks like I've never picked up a golf club in my life.
My question is, should I sign up for another round of lessons, or just accept the fact that this is as good as it gets?
