rld ALONE is not going to really move the needle much. If golf is a journey, then a lesson is the act of pulling out a map and changing your course to move towards your destination. You still need to be putting in the work OUTSIDE your lesson time to practicing the feedback you get at your lesson.

If you sign up for a lesson I would also recommend you make a plan for when and how you're going to spend time on your own working on what your coach tells you.

Setup a hitting net and get an old driving range mat in your back yard. Get a putting mat in your basement. I've improved a ton by putting on a 36" wooden ruler in my kitchen. Get an old piece of carpet square and practice chipping at small targets. Do slo-motion reps with a stick while you're watching TV. This is the stuff that actually yields the improvement. The coach and the lesson simply point you in the right direction.
