Practice Drill: Swing Thoughts
One thing is absolutely for certain and that is that while you are over the ball your mind will continue to THINK!!
The brain will not just switch off. The key understanding is that you need to PARK your ATTENTION in ONE PLACE.
The worst golf that we are capable is usually the result of TOO many thoughts.
The golden rule is PARK your ATTENTION in ONE PLACE.
There are 4 possible places that you can park your attention for the duration of the shot.
• The Target
• The Ball
• The Club
• You
Basically, what you need to discover through some trial and error is the best place of the 4 options to HOLD your attention during the swing.
As an example you could place your attention on the clubhead and keep it there all the way through the shot or you could have an image of the target and again have that image in your mind’s eye all the way through the swing.
It doesn’t matter which of the four areas you go for as long as you settle with JUST ONE.
