Why do I need a golf swing coach?
Well, the simple answer is - you probably don't. Unless you are a single figure handicap or professional player, you would normally get all the swing training you need from your local teaching pro.
When you start to have golf lessons, one of the first things covered, after the grip, is the swing. Your teacher will get you swinging on the right plane. He will also work with you to achieve the correct rhythm and tempo. As you progress, you will appreciate the importance of a good swing and being able to repeat it time after time.
The specialist golf swing coach would normally work with very low handicappers and professionals - even the pros need coaching to keep consistency in their swing, and with so many good players In the upper echelon it's a fine line between huge success and mediocrity.
So, for the majority of us , our local teaching pro will substitute for the golf swing coach. If you are having problems with your swing, you could ask for a whole lesson to be focused on it, to iron out any faults.
In summary, your teaching pro will show you how to swing a golf club from scratch, and correct any faults you may have as you progress through your lessons. You would only need the services of a golf swing coach when you have achieved a very high standard, and his role would be observational rather than tutorial, pointing out minor faults that you might need to tweak.
