Welcome!

The game is simple - hit it, find it, and hit it again.

Hello,

It's a good thing to be starting fresh. At least you will have the chance to learn the game right, and avoid mistakes which will become embedded.

As LowPost42 says, at this point, don't get overly concerned when you go out to play, just enjoy yourself, and have some fun.

I would, though, get one good book or video, which takes you through the basics and work with that, when you're not on the course. For this, I would stick with one of the traditional instructors or players, such as Nick Faldo, Rick Smith, Jack Nicklaus, Jim McLean. Some people feel more at ease, if they learn and practice the basics before going out to play. Stay with the one set of instructions, and do not mix and match different theories, or bother with any Golf Digest or your buddy's tips, initially, before you try to experiment. That is one way, you will surely get muddled up. I believe a lot of the regular golfers on this forum can attest to that.
