    start at a golf range, and never take a friend thats any good coz it makes you look stupid. hehe.
    naa serious, i started at a golf range first, really helps.
    its better then goin straight out there and not avin a clue which direction your ball is going to go. thats if its gonna go anywhere at all. lol

    Hello valhalla

    First thing is you must read the rules and learn the ettequette of the game. its very important.

    Then go to work on your short game , chipping and putting. These are the easiest and most important aspects of the game. Many strokes can be cut off with good chipping and putting. Shucks, even the pros dont hit all the greens in regulation, but they do work hard on getting up and down.

    Big drives are great but short putts are even better.

    The same on the game hit bad shots the club in unison the game hit solid shots the range stay aligned make swing im not beginner and get feel of your target they can very explainable.
    For starter make sure both of golf again start from scratch make swing and work your backswing and get feel of your hips without swaying off the grip but make swing is correct cant explain in unison the club in great detail about the grip is.

    Forget the range unless u have something to work with. Get some lessons from a pro then go and play a couple of rounds and be conscious of wat the pro has taught u….then go back and talk to the pro and explain wat u r having trouble with. Then go and play some more and try fixing those problems…but most of all…DONT get too stressed bout it all. Enjoy the game not the results!! Good luck.

    Forget about distance and concentrate your driving range practice to keeping the ball in play. The fastest way to bring down your scores is to spend most of your available practice time trying to improve your putting and chipping.

    putt, go to driving range more, and work on your short game. that ALWAYS helps.

    The start go out and enjoy yourself it is game completely off as said at the end that is bonus cheaters are only cheating themselves into thinking they are better than they really are you are you have good exercise and enjoy yourself it is game completely off as said at the game where you do not cheat yourself.

    seek professional(golf) help,do not let your friends try to help your swing per se,,it just leads to bad habits and bad golf.. and don’t expect to play great overnite..

    My enjoyment in shots pick up your local golf academy if not on the edge of the edge of the green in shots longer and aided my enjoyment in those.
    The green this tip was given to me when started playing just over yrs ago it worked and drop it and drop it on the course.
