Thinking about the next shot too soon. Getting ahead of ourselves. Building up tension are all detrimental to our game and our ability to think correctly and with purpose. Here are some tips I used during a round of golf to free my mind and to not use up wasted energy between shots.
Getting the round off to a good start is important for any golfer. It sets the mind and body on the journey the rest of the day. Listen to how important it was to two of golf's greatest.
Our instincts are really strong IF we allow them to shine through. I guarantee most of you will have done something similar to what I show in this video and then gone out onto the course and tried too hard and failed with the putter.
How many strokes per round does the average golfer waste due to poor decisions? If I told you a 20 handicap player could be a 15 handicap player within a month only by making better decisions would you believe me?
Often players will take a peek in the bag of a competitor to see what club they are hitting- especially on a par 3. In this video I share an occurrence with Steve Elkington and how my club selection hindered rather than helped him.
From experience most club golfers (and professionals mind you) are too one dimensional in their short games. See how imagination in club choice and landing spot can allow you to get closer to the hole and save countless strokes during your round of golf.
