Not long ago, I received a golf video the claimed it would be able to change my game. Being an avid golfer, and having received it as a gift from my wife, I watched in hopes of learning something – if even a portion of the golf video’s claims were true, I would benefit. What I quickly discovered was that in terms of general knowledge, the video was very helpful. I picked up several strategic pointers on how to approach my overall game – things like when be aggressive and ways to shave strokes. In terms of swing attributes, however, the video was too general. Its one-size-fits-all approach did not fit into any of issues I have had. In general, while the video was helpful, a private lesson is far more valuable.
