I am all about lessons and all about practice. I am not about quick fixes and beating balls to improve.
Yesterday I spent an hour and half on the range working on the my swing. I had one goal and that was to turn my shoulders to get the club into position. Once the left shoulder reach my chin I started my down swing. by focusing on just my shoulder swing I was able to detect any other flaws that might have crept into the swing. I ahd one of my best range sessions this year.
My divots where shallow and crisp, my ball flight was strong and my dispersion was spot on. best I have seen in a very long time. When I say I was a few yards left of my target on miss hit and a few feet on good hits, I am not kidding. Every time I miss a shot I knew right away what I had done wrong. I knew if I had ailed to take the club away with the shoulders or if I hung back at impact.
Everyone will have differing levels of success in their practice session. But I promise you, if you make sure the basics are taken care and focus on one swing thought you will get far more out of your practice session then you realize. The basics would be grip, stance and posture. You can't hit any shot without making sure these three are set. Once these are set you can work on that one swing thought. It could be hip release, shoulder turn, holing the angle into the ball, high hands...what ever. Just get the basics down and work on one thought.
So work on one swing thought at a time. You will get more in tune with your swing.
