What a coincidence, I just got back from my lesson.

Yes, I take a lesson every month...or at least I have since February. Before that it had been about 2 years since my last lesson.

I think that lessons are one of the most important things to really learning the golf swing. I practice 2-3 times per week and try to play once a week when my schedule will allow. I see a lot of guys out there beating balls thinking they are improvng their swing. In reality, if you have a poor swing and your mechanics are bad you are simply ingraining bad moves into your swing. You must practice the proper things and the correct motions in order to improve. The only way to really do that is to have someone who is knowledgeable and impartial about your swing and that is a golf pro.

Get with a good pro and you won't go wrong. Lessons generally will run $60-100 an hour which is about what you would pay for a round of golf. You will improve much more with a lesson than playing 18 holes with your old swing.
