I have a two day tournament coming up.
I seem to have lost my swing pace and find myself rushing the swing and scattering shots all over the place. Pushing driver, pulling short irons...
Most likely I am not turning, instead just lifting up...
Does anyone have a 'swing thought' they would care to share to help with a rushed swing ???
Most swing thoughts do not work more than a few days...
so my timing seems perfect !
Currently I use a 'keep elbow close" tip...

"rawson" on the way back

"and" triggers the hips to start moving (before the shoulders etc)

"gulbis" gets the club moving on the downswing - impact at approximately, "gul"

Put it together and what have you got?

"rawson . . and gulbis"

Beautiful in so many ways.

to help get tempo back, go to the range and hit every club in the bag to the 100 yrd marker. There is no way you are going to hit a 5 iron there and be fast... not gonna happen. After that, take a few full shots using that same fluid motion. It helps.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

Errr--nieee-----Elllllls!!!!!

did you hear Faldo say this during the Bridgestone? I have been using that lately and really like the tempo it gives me.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
