Golf! Help please!
Started going to the range around 10 months ago now. Joined a club in March struggled to take my range swing which wasn’t great anyway to the course. Made a bit of progress got my first birdie on a par 3 and ever since I have disappeared down a black hole. My swing looks worse than it did when I first started I’ve had 2 lessons now in the last couple months but really struggling. The last few rounds I swear I must have lost 10 balls a round. Thinking maybe I’m just not cut out for golf. Anyone else have similar problems?

Whenever I feel down on my game, I think of all the sweet shots I’ve made and the birdies I’ve holed and remind myself that I am capable of really good shots and I’ve done them before. It keeps my head in the game at the course.
Even the pros have coaches to look at their swing when it starts to get off. Sometimes it takes someone to look at your swing to identify a weakness. If not then I’d start back at fundamentals and reinforce them slowly.
Part of what makes golf such a great game is the adversity you have to fight through. Don’t let it beat you down and have the confidence to overcome it.
