I got my first golf club when I was 9 years old but I only had one lesson. When I was 10 we had mini kids golf at my primary school and I started playing. After a while I started going to group sessions at my local golf club in Tidworth where I was taught by one of the pros - Charlie Gold. I then progressed to the junior academy with the head pro at Tidworth. Charlie moved away as he found a new job however I still have individual lessons with Charlie as he is my main coach.

Swing Lesson with Charlie
Today I had a swing lesson with Charlie. He looked at my swing in general and said it looked 'world class' which I was super happy about. Previously, I was working on swinging left to try and not come from the inside, although this is good with my irons it is not so good when it comes to driving. I was swinging too far left with my driver so I was slicing everything and hitting it inconsistently (mainly out of the toe). Towards the end of the lesson I was hitting my driver better and knew exactly what I needed to work on to fix it. It was a great lesson and I had a fun time with Charlie.
