I Took My First Real Golf Lesson… And Everything Changed

Welcome back to Farang Golf! In this episode, I start a brand-new golf improvement series where I take my first-ever structured golf lesson after years of playing with a completely self-taught swing. If you’ve ever struggled with consistency, slicing, or building a proper golf swing from scratch—this one’s for you. I’m training with Coach Adriaan here in Bangkok, and we’re breaking down my swing piece by piece. From grip changes to understanding how the right arm and wrist release actually control the clubface, this lesson completely challenges everything I thought I knew about golf. It’s not easy—relearning a swing after years of bad habits is tough—but the early results are already surprising. This series will follow my full journey: lessons, practice sessions at the driving range, and eventually taking it all onto the golf course. Expect real struggles, honest progress, and hopefully a much better golf game by the end. ⛳ What you’ll learn in this video: • Why most amateur golfers slice the ball • How grip and hand positioning affect your swing • The role of the right arm in generating power and consistency • How to simplify your swing thoughts for better results • Why “feel vs real” is so important in golf improvement If you’re in Bangkok and looking to improve your golf game, stick around till the end to hear how Adriaan works with new students.
