Any golfers have any good websites / youtube channels that have lessons or tips for a beginner?

Best thing for a new golfer is to get a "19th hole"  outfit.

I have not hated golf when I have tried it, but cost-enjoyment ratio is just not high enough for me.

Maybe I'll get a boat...  :lol :bolt:

Here's a key lesson for beginners.
http://www.golf.com/video/proper-way-throw-your-club

If you are starting from scratch take some group lessons, they are cheaper than 1 on 1 training and will help you get the basics down.  Short game is tough, but most courses have a chipping and putting area that you can use for free, or after hitting a bucket. 
To each their pwn.

I cannot recommend these guys enough:

https://www.youtube.com/user/meandmygolf

Check out Rick Shiels and Peter Finch too.  Chris Ryan has a lot of good stuff for beginners as well.

But the meandmygolf beginner stuff has millions of views.  They helped my bunker game enormously as an example.

Really good guys too, in fact Piers is coming down here on June 26 with his girlfriend for a two week holiday.

For some interesting stuff on Igram check out my profile, follow me and I will follow back:

Love golf.  Message me with any questions at all.

Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain
