...... what a friggen waste of my time and money.
A couple of rounds ago I started pulling the ball - a bunch. I went to the driving range to try to work it out and ended up grooving the pull. The next couple of rounds were pretty ugly - a lot of left. The guys I play with were no help. They said my swing looked like it's normal ugly self.
Today I got a lesson from an ass't at a local course. Some guy that looks like he just started shaving a couple of weeks ago. I told him what my problem was and asked him to help me fix it. Instead of trying to help me fix a problem he spent a half hour trying to get me to swing like a 20 year old. New grip, new stance, new pre shot, everything. That just ain't gonna' happen. I just wanted to fix a pull problem, not start from scratch.
After I left the course I decided to stop at the range again to try to work things out. There's an old fart there that sometimes gives lessons (cheap). I asked him for help, he watched me hit 3-4 balls, said you're swinging to f**kin' fast. Your hands are way ahead of your a** and he walked off. By the time I got half way through the bucket I had mellowed out my swing and quit yanking the ball.
The first guy charged $40, the second guy was free. Next stop at the range will include a bottle of the guy's favorite.
