Sitting here watching the LPGA and realized you hardly ever see a pro take practice swings 6”-12” away from the ball. Yet as amateurs it seems like everyone I see or play with address the ball a few inches away, takes a few swings and then lines up and hits.
For me it seems like my practice swings are always the best but I actually don’t take one with the driver. When it’s my turn I line up and pull the trigger.
I understand if it’s a gnarly lie trying to see how the club goes through but many times it doesn’t seem to matter.
What say you? Are we wasting time taking too many swings while just away from the ball? Should we just visualize, line up and pull the trigger?
