It sounds like you are going into it with the right attitude and a good plan. I was fortunate enough to start off at nine years old with a set of three lessons and I commend you on your choice not to just jump in and teach yourself. Far too many golfers develop bad and nearly unbreakable habits by doing that. Advice wise, prepare to be frustrated and work through it. Golf is such a pleasurable and rewarding game, but it can be the most frustrating as well. It's a lot like life that way. Even after nearly twenty years of golf, I still have those spurts where nothing seems to go right. As long as you are prepared to be patient, listen to your instructor, and diligently practice what he or she tells you, I think you and golf will get along well. I look forward to following this thread and your experience. Golf is a lifelong pleasure; welcome to the club.
