I believe that we all have a certain way that we would like to swing a golf club. If you have been doing it for a while there is no doubt in my mind that you are set in your ways. And there is no doubt that it will be difficult to make you change.
That’s part of the dilemma that golf instruction is faced with. Lot’s of people want a Golf Lesson, but very few want to make the change to get them to the next level.
It would be next to impossible to talk about repeating a golf swing if the swing was already filled with mistakes. You would be in constant correction and perpetual confusion if someone told you to repeat a bad swing over and over.
You would think they were nuts. Wouldn’t you!
But, yet, when you go the range or on the course, that is exactly what most of you are trying to do. You spend tons of energy trying to repeat a bad swing.
Repeatability of performance is not a good idea if the performance is a sorry sight to see in the first place.
Is there anyone out there that would disagree with that?
The idea of repeating a golf swing is to repeat a ” good golf swing” I dare say that it is hard enough repeating anything that requires so much accuracy with so little time involved to do it.
My goodness, just imagine all that goes into trying to hit a ball so small, that is below your knees, with a club that is just a little bigger than the ball. And hitting it straight for several hundred yards, over and over and over.
To me it sound almost impossible.
Technically it is almost impossible. That said, people do it all the time. Kids do it, women do it, older men do it, I have a friend who is a paraplegic in a wheel chair and he does it. I have another friend who lost an arm in an accident and he competes world wide and he does it.
Many of these people do it very very well. They repeat a golf swing that works for them with the tools that the good Lord gave them.
They hit it straight and some of them hit it a massive distance.
So what’s your excuse?
I know I shouldn’t start raising cain about your motivations. Heck, I don’t even know you.
But I do know this. I have spent hundreds if not thousands of hours on the range watching people of all ages, of all sizes, shapes, and weights……. thousands, banging away at the ball. Repeating the most obnoxious golf swings you or I have ever seen. And they wonder ” what am I do’n wrong” I hear it all the time.
The answer is: You are repeating a really really bad swing. but the good news is, you are consistent. One of the two things that we strive for.
I have said this before and I will continue to say it. There have been almost no swings that I have seen over the years that could not be fixed. There has almost never been anyone I have worked with that could not shoot in the 80’s if they would just get out of their own way. And do the things they are taught.
So how do you get a repeating ” good golf swing” ?
You read ” How to ” books and then practice what you have read.
Or you go and see your local PGA professional and do what they say.
Or you do both. I have done both hundreds of times.
I spent more money than I thought it was worth going to David Leadbetter’s school in Florida.
Did I learn stuff? Sure I did. Did I practice what I learned. Yes .. Like a crazy man. And yes it worked.
I repeat a pretty good golf swing, do you?
