I fear my career will be stunted forever if I don't learn to play before I die... ;)

I was told to take classes. while you could eventually get the hang of it on your own with much practice, it's easy to develop bad tendencies and even more difficult to correct them. with instruction, you have someone (hopefully) experienced in observing your swing and instructing you on the basic fundamentals. cost effective instruction is offered by many cities and even local community colleges. private instruction can be found at the local pro shop. some instructor may even do side gigs.
