  1. Embrace the nervousness as excitement, be grateful that your golfing, the pros get excited too and they just except the feelings, when you try to fight it your fighting your instincts, except it and dance with your fears.
  2. You snap it back and snap it forward, gravity is swinging your club. If you tells you not to go over the top you will start going over the top. Get a good wrist cock on the backswing and it will help your down swing, you see the back of the right hand on impact and the club snaps as you get to the 8 oclock position.
  3. What you focus on expands, if you think you can't play when it's slow your right. It's all mental, example would be not wanting to hit it in the sand trap, that's where your going. The power is in the pre-shot routine. When your playing by yourself or others it really shouldn't matter, although I find it very hard to concentrate when playing by myself. Develop a pre-shot routine that takes the same amount of time before each shot so you get into the zone with the right tempo. If you take more than 30 seconds for your pre-shot routine that would be to much thinking, around 30 seconds for your routine seems to be the magic number for the pros, get a stop watch and time them and have someone time yours.
  4. With the driver tee the ball up a little more and move the ball up in your stance, put 60 - 40 weight distribution, more on the back foot. On your take away make it low and slow, and don't over swing, the biggest problem we have is we try to swing the club with our arms, swing it with your core and arms. Let the ball get in the way of your swing and finish your swing. You may want to try not grounding your club, that means not putting your club on the ground at setup, usually this gives you a much smoother swing.
  5. Jack Nicklaus never grounded his club, so you might want to try not grounding your club and you will have a more up right stance. Swing the club and let the ball get in the way of it. If you want a divot in front of the ball, like everyone does, focus your eyes on the center of the ball on the down swing and somehow we get a divot in front. The ball position is usually around the left pocket, take a practice swing and see where the divot is and address the shot accordingly.
  6. Hello, first of all before the round you need to hit some shots only using your wrist, just to get them warmed up. Then you do your half shots, three quarter shots, then the full shot. After everything is warmed up, it should be a natural process, as your doing the take away the wrist is not doing to much, but when the club starts to go up it starts to cock until it finally reaches the end of your back swing and thats when it is fully ready to compress the ball on the down swing. Let it happen naturally, only way to play golf. I use to watch Leadbetters videos, just don't like the way he does the shoulder tilts, if you watch the pros they keep their shoulders relatively level.
  7. I think it really shouldn't matter if you leading or behind. The number one thing that most golfers do well, emphasis on most, is stay in the present moment, playing the game one shot at a time. When Tiger was winner all the tournaments you could see the golfers playing against Tiger and not against the course. So if your playing the course, focusing on your next shot and not score, your more apt to get into the flow of the game. Where's my target is what the pros focus on. Golf is different than any other sport, in running, runners set back and let other runners run in front of them, could you imagine if you let someone get a 5 stroke lead, just doesn't happen.
