1. On A Scale Of 1 to 10, How Important Is Confidence In Hitting Any Give Golf Shot?
-
1 - Confidence won't keep an airplane in the air. All the confidence in the world doesn't mean a hill of beans once you swing. It simply doesn't matter in the least.2
-
2 - Confidence doesn't matter much. I've seen down-in-the-dumps people not give a crap and hit the best shots of their round.0
-
3 - Very little. The ball doesn't know how confident you are or are not. It just goes where its struck.2
-
4 - It probably matters a bit, but most golfers over-value confidence.5
-
5 - Confidence can't hurt, but it's more likely that hitting good shots makes you confident, not the other way around.8
-
6 - It will help a little.2
-
7 - It's pretty important. Definitely should be part of your training plan and pre-shot routines.4
-
8 - Confidence will allow you to make your best swing. Therefore its important.25
-
9 - You have to be confident or your game will go to Hell in a golf cart.4
-
10 - Confidence will very literally change the outcome of the swing you are about to make. If you are confident you WILL hit it better. That's a fact!5

Day 12: 12/22/2024 I had several short mirror sessions today. Working on my PPJ swing thought. The one thing I have to careful of is I kind of get into a habit of doing my PPJ and then forget to finish the swing. I just sort of stop. So, I've also been focusing on my PPJ swing thought, but then also on getting all the way to my finish rather than just stopping. -

Day 233 (22 Dec 24) - Very late afternoon session (after watching the PNC finish - much more entertaining than the Showdown) with the 50deg, hitting nippy low flighted chips. Really focused on foot position and keeping swing smooth. As light was fading fast and temps were heading south of freezing, session was pretty abbreviated.
