Before you take the dive and start with one-on-one golf instruction, you should go over the advantages and disadvantages of this sort of approach. Can individual lessons truly make me better or am I wasting my time? Some people think that once you reach a certain level, one-on-one golf instruction is unnecessary. This is just not true, as even the best players in the world still use a swing coach.

The growth that you can make as an individual has everything to do with how much time you put into the game. Some players will just take lessons and leave it at that. Other players will leave the instruction period and practice the things they have learned. No matter what your handicap is, application of principles will bring it down a few notches.
