try a little vicks vapor on the inside of nose to keep that grass allege at bay when you are out in the grass see if this helps you cheers
a little old school trick! Have not heard of that one!
A couple of questions come to mind:
1) The preshot 2 swing blur observation’s goal is to see if the blurs are PARALLEL to the line of the ball and intermediate point? And this more or less is done when we swing to 2 o’clock (for righties)?
2) When you say ‘attacking’ mode – this means we start playing with confidence right? There are some holes in my home course that a conservative approach is still best 8/10 times.
I once read somewhere: “plan conservative, swing aggressive” – is this in line with what the mental approach should be?
Your last line Sandy; yes! Your goal is to make a clear decision and then have an attacking Mindset to deliver. When on a defensive mindset, careful to not make a mistake, you are moving towards “flight” or “bail”. When you are on the attack, you are decisive and true!
LOVE the content of this video. The blur and staying with the blur is great – but more than this, the mindset you should have in playing tournament golf is where the nugget is.
The explanation of Shawn for the chip shot (goldilocks, that’s where i want to land, look, shoot) – this is gold.
So glad you are seeing things more clearly Sandy; let’s keep evolving together! 😀👍
To me it just goes to show that a real commitment to an assertive swing with good fundamentals can be undone by anxiety. Trying not to have the blowup hole(s) by being cautious kills the tempo, clearing properly and swing balance. I like the 2 blurr practice swings and after that I don’t want to rush but I already have my yardage and flight plan and intermediate point so a little bounce and slight press and off we go….
Yeah man! I am preparing one heck of a nice series on “offensive vs Defensive” approaches. Unbelievably important and I wish I had this information when I was playing tournament golf!
Thursday morning here in Japan and I imagine all our NA friends are glued to the NHL so I’ll be the first to comment: I started swinging lefty about 3 months ago after getting pain in my left hip swinging right and luckily found Shawn, Sav and Mu, about the same time. I, like Sav and Shawn, am right handed so hitting “backhand” from the left side, or throwing a frisbee has also been a great analogy. Anyway, on the course i default to the ball a lot and top it, shank it and pull it, so it has been very nice to know I’m not the only one by watching Mu do some of the same. So now as I have built the basic “Clement” swing I will go back to focusing more on throwing to the target and let the rest take care of itself. I still haven’t broken a hundred (as there is always a blow out there somewhere) but I have shot in the 40s a few times. PS Sorry to hear about your grass allergies guys!
Very important video for you is “lead hand release”; have you seen it? Then go trail hand release and release fine tuning. When you come back to “throwing the club” without letting go of the club, you will have your nice “snap release” that you will use in the “target confirmation series” videos.
