I desperately want to get some lessons. But the reason I'm not getting them right now is bc after 10ish years off from golf I've returned by using my dad's old clubs. Unfortunately, they are pretty old 'Founders Club' clubs with Senior flex shafts. I'm not sure exactly what my swing speed is but I'm confident it's too fast to be using these shafts.
I don't want to start lessons with these old clubs and misfit shafts. I feel like if I do then maybe bad habits from using equipment not suited for me will engrain bad habits. I'm going to be fit for new clubs near the end of August and will most likely get some lessons after I get them.
Good to know. So getting the swing together with Senior flex not going to wreck me when I get new clubs with Reg or stiff flex?Conventional wisdom is get the swing together through lessons, then get fit for clubs with your fixed swing…..

How did the GolfTec lessons work out for you?I have mine locked in. This is the year I plan to take my game to its best.
I have a giant package through GolfTec hear in Nashville (Cool Springs) and absolutely love my coach.
Having the visual aspect has been eye opening thus far. I highly recommend looking into GolfTec or someplace that can record and give the data.
I took a lesson last Saturday. My arm position on takeaway had gotten sloppy, and without external observation and correction, i had kept going the wrong way. A small backswing correction made a big difference already. Next lesson this upcoming Saturday. And every other week thereafter. Going to chip away at all the little things that atrophied and turned into a crap swing.
1 hour of instruction started to right the ship that endless hours of range time and self diagnosis couldn’t fix (and absolutely hurt).

I live in a town where there aren't many instructors. I can only think of 3. Two of them specialize in kids instruction. The other has been too busy with running a golf course and no assistants to help with giving lessons. He's greatly reduced his lesson schedule so its harder to get enough lessons with him. He'll basically spend some time at the range for one session then watch you play a 9 holes and work with you through the 9 holes. But it has to be during a slow time so he can do it right. The window is limited with him.
I've been told by older adults that the two who teach kids are not good at working with older golfers who are not new to the game. Fine for beginners to get the basics down. But they can't work with someone who's had a certain swing for a long time. They're not able to recognize flaws and they just want to change your swing to the long held traditions. More than one person has told me they were either no help or messed up their swing even more.
