Reflect on your successes

When you hit a good shot, hold your finish and try to mentally reinforce what the swing felt like. Giving yourself this positive feedback will make it much easier to recall these images and feelings during your pre-shot routine.

Visualize the shot

Create a positive image of the ball’s flight before you hit it Visualizing each shot will help keep negative thoughts away.

Line up

Alignment is one of the simplest mistakes to correct—and poor alignment can be one of the most destructive– because you must compensate for it in your swing.

Pre-Shot Routine

When you approach your shots the same way each time, you train your subconscious to be less affected by outside influences. Fewer variables in the moments leading up to your swing will mean fewer variables during your swing.

Do what works for you

A good routine shouldn’t take a lot of time. Exact details are less important than doing the same thing each time, your grip and stance, looking at the target, waggling the club, and taking practice swings.
