[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 1077225, member: 72205"] I've been learning to play golf for 3-4 months from a position of a complete novice who had no clue what he was doing. Weather hasn't helped much in terms of going out on a course but my first attempt was utter rubbish and I still can't hit the ball with anything other than short iron straight with any regularity. That's with taking lessons. I feel like if I were playing Tennis having played Squash (badly) getting to the stage of being able to have some basic competency and not be a complete fool would take less time. Now getting to professional quality is a completely different ball game and being able to play someone of different calibre. It should be noted that because I didn't play sport regularly as a kid a whole bunch of natural motor functions aren't there. One is game just about skill and technique. The other is one that also requires physical endurance and cardio. As noted apples and oranges. [/QUOTE]
