I have played 9 holes 3 times these past 2 months (basically first time ever) and bought my self a set of clubs on amazon used $450 bucks after closing a big deal at work. I’ll link it if this gets attention.

2 questions:

1. when I go to the range and practice (whether once a week or once a month idk), what should I think about? Trying to practice a sound swing or just go by distance? I reference a chart on google of how far a ball should go by club. Thats about all I go off of now, is trying to get the ball to go the right distance based on club. Should I focus on swing mechanics? Waste of time?

2. what the hell is the difference between 9 iron and pitching wedge? The clubs look identical, lol.
