Pro golfers achieve excellence when they are in control of their mind, body and focus. The MIND understands the swing mechanics. The BODY must be in shape for endurance and strength. And your FOCUS needs to be in a relaxed state of mind. Have you figured out how to control your FOCUS?
I was surprised to learn that success using the Straight Arm Swing depended on controlling my focus and my subconscious mind.
Your conscious mind sees the target, the ball and that irritating guy standing beside you. But your subconscious mind is the accumulation of memories that make you bend your leading arm to swing faster for longer shots. So how do the pros control their focus and subconscious mind?
- Tiger is a devout Buddhist who has learned to control his inner emotions and focus as he prepares for a shot and executes each swing. He visualizes each component of the swing in slow motion.
- Jack Nicholas focuses on visualizing the trajectory of the shot.
- Rory McIlroy said that he totally blocks external thoughts. His focus during the swing is 100% committed to the motion of his swing.
- Successful pros use sports psychologists for mind control to learn the process of relaxation and focus during their swing.
Fortunately, while golfing with a sore back I had to slow down my back-swing and the results were surprising. A fast back-swing has little to do with the speed of the forward swing. Now with a STRAIGHT ARM and a SLOWER, FOCUSED back-swing I have learned to reach my ideal position at the top of my swing for a smooth transition into an accelerating forward swing.
My golf world has changed and yours can too. Focus 100% on a relaxed swing! Just focus on the words ” Calm and Relaxed ” before you swing and hold that thought as you begin you slow and deliberate straight arm back-swing.
