Don't stress too much, being a beginner at anything is tough. So keep it simple - hit ball, find ball, repeat.

Don't hit bucket after bucket on the range with your driver.
Spend time on your short game and shots under 120 yards.
^ Good advice. I have a friend who took the game up a couple years ago - he could hit his driver reasonably well and wasn’t bad with his irons, but he could never break 100 because he’d waste 4 or 5 shots around every green. Once he started focusing on his short game, he dropped into the 90s and a few weeks ago he broke 90 for the first time.Don't hit bucket after bucket on the range with your driver.

Ohhh great call on the grip.Learn proper golf etiquette. Spend time practicing your grip. See Hogan's Five Lessons for details on the grip.
Whoops, that was more than one thing.

Remember, the most important shot is the next one!
Thanks. Did you make change that felt like a step back?
Your first lessons with a pro, have him teach you how to chip and hit pitch shots. It’s the easiest shot to learn (next to putting). You will be using it on every hole while you are starting out and will save you more strokes immediately than anything else.
