PB,

RUN !!! dont walk to your nearest Pro and start this journey on the right foot. Your local pro who should be able to put you on a very do able plan to get you the desired results. the money that you spend w/the Pro is going to save you major headaches days, months and years from now. today, you are just hitting balls w/out any focus, goal or reason why the ball is behave the way it is. The Pro will help you with all of that, find one that is in your price range. Often we think that money is too much, trust me. It is easier to learn the right way, than trying to erase bad habits.

find a Pro 30 - 60 dollars and write down the thing they suggest you to work on, you will be surprised how quickly you get to your goals with a plan.

good luck
