Does Your Golf Swing Slip Away On The Golf Course?

Maybe you've been here...

You know you have a big match coming up this weekend, so you spend nights at the driving range refining your golf swing. You practice your short game and your putting. You know in your mind that you can play better than you have so far this season and this week you're going to be ready.

Although you were nervous, you pulled off a great drive on the first hole. On the golf course, you're playing like a well oiled machine. It's the best round yet and then...

A routine shot goes a little sideways and you try to shrug it off. You scramble and save a bogie, but that's to be expected now and then...

The next drive is a little loose and you get that feeling... Oh no, not again!

Then the approach shot; 100 yards, your favorite distance and chunk!

What the!!!

Have you been there? I think we all have. I've even seen pros chunk seemingly easy shots.

But that doesn't make it any easier to face the rest of your foursome.

The question is: If you're playing well, what suddenly changes to cause this type of breakdown?

What do golfers usually do when this happens? They usually go to the driving range to work it out. Sometimes they have some serious anger to vent. I've seen golfers do some pretty crazy things after experiencing a meltdown on the golf course, none of which could possibly fix the problem.

Why? Because the problem is where they aren't looking. The problem is in their mind.

IT ISN'T A MENTAL PROBLEM THOUGH...

No, it's HOW they are using their mind. Let me explain.

What do you do when that first shot gets a little squirrely? You wake up and try to focus a little more on each shot...

But that seems to make things worse? So where can you turn if your increased focus makes things worse?

You know the feeling...

That's the feeling of despair that haunts golfers because there is nothing left and things are getting worse. That's when many golfers start drinking.

I once saw a golfer shoot a 43 on the front 9, get so drunk he could barely speak and turn in a 31 on the back 9 for a total 74. Unbelievable!

Instead of thinking, he took his mind completely out of the picture and ran on auto-pilot... He quit TRYING to focus and let his mind do it naturally.

You see, when you try to focus, you actually think more and focus less. Let me explain.

Real focus comes from the subconscious, where trying to focus makes you think more consciously.

This is important because the subconscious brain controls the body's movement, something the conscious mind can't do very well.

So what should you do? Well I don't recommend getting drunk. It rarely works.

The subconscious controls movement by thinking visually, in pictures. That is the secret of focus, thinking in pictures.

But there's still a problem. If you've tried visualizing your swing or maybe the shot without great results, there is a good reason it may not have worked as good as it should have.

You see, the mind also monitors feedback from the body to make sure that the movement is correct. For visualization to work, it must connect with the body's bio-feedback that the brain is using to moderate its movement.

Sounds complicated, but once you see how it works, it's actually easier than any other way of creating consistently accurate shots on the golf course.

What's even better is that once you get in touch with your Bio-feedback, the corresponding pictures come up automatically because your brain already does this for your normal everyday movement.
