Making Your Golf Swing Great
It is possible that you aren’t looking in the right place for answers. Maybe it isn’t your technique that is the problem. Stay with me hereif changing your technique isn’t helping, maybe it’s time to look to some other aspect of your game to work on.
Let me ask a few pointed questions:
1) What is your pre-shot routine? 2) How do you let go of ego? 3) How do you find balance in your swing?
These may sound a little off topic, but hear me out. It’s a fact that professional golfers all have pre-shot routines to follow. They have spent time developing some type of ritual that allows them to be peaceful and relaxed before they shoot. What is yours? Have you found it? Take a look at some routines and see if they work for you.
Also, ego can play a big part in your game. If you’re more worried about looking bad to the people you’re playing with, you may be hampering your own game. It’s important to give yourself a chance at nonjudgmental play. Look at it this way: when you’re practicing, you somehow let go of the pressure to perform and just enjoy the moment. That’s the state you want to get to when playing a game.
Finally, is your shot balanced? When you’re swinging, you should be able to pick your right foot up, if you’re shooting righty. Try it out and see if you can. If you can’t then you aren’t balanced. Your weight should be totally on your left foot, to the point of being able to lift up your right foot off the ground. If it isn’t, then you aren’t balancing right.
