I got to a point where I was shooting in mid to high 70's and hit a wall.... I was playing alot then too. I had one lesson last year for the first time and having another in 2 weeks. It made me so uncomfortable going into the lesson even though I've known the pro since I started playing golf. I'm self taught and when you start talking about some swing things I don't "see" it because I'm more visual than just telling me. Gregg calmed me down and just asked what I had problems with and what I was looking to change. He was also self taught and said my grip and setup (not alignment)
was identical even through his college golf before he went through his swing changes. He had me go with a stronger grip and it's been ongoing change just with that.
Lessons would be something I would like to do regularly. However, since I'm not getting out as much as I would like & range time it would seem to be more wasteful when I can't go work on new swing changes. I would say I'm looking for smaller changes that can be done instead of a major overhaul. My swing was working for the most part but you always want to get better. I can look at video or read articles all I want on what I'm supposed to do. But, I wasn't able to make myself change which made it very difficult and frustrating at the same time. So I really believe lessons will get me over that hump.
