If you are taking golf lessons or trying to learn the game, it is very important that you have the opportunity to see yourself on video. This is the only way of you seeing what you are doing as opposed to what you think you are doing. It is so important to be aware of how you swing the club.

Everyone has an idea of what a good golf swing looks like and feels like they are imitating that. The video shows you what you are doing, how far back the club goes, how fast you are swinging and what your body is doing.

Using just video will help but what is even better is video with the help of a computer program that can slow you swing down, draw lines or circle as a reference and show you what you are doing at impact of the ball. Golf is a very precise game and the more precise you can make it the better golfer you are going to be. The computer program can bring up the likes of Tiger Woods beside your swing to compare the different positions that the two swings are in.

In my opinion, video is the single most important tool in learning golf. If anyone tells you they can teach you golf with out the help of video, I would find someone else to teach you.
