Hitting Long Iron Shots That Stick and Won't Roll
Ever hit an approach shot with a long iron only to have it hit the green and skip past the hole? Being able to hold a green with your long iron approach shots, or any other shot for that matter, is a must, if you want to break 80, 90, or even 100.
Handling Tournament Pressure
The mindset that allows you to have a swing that holds up under the most intense tournament pressure on the professional tours is impossible to achieve with a Western philosophy or mentality of being concerned with the outcome and winning. The first thing you must realize is that there is no such thing as intense tournament pressure, except what you make of it in your mind.
Pressure only exists if you are concerned about the outcome. Playing a practice round and playing in the British Open is the same exact thing! It is the same 18 holes to Old Man Golf; everything else is irrelevant. You may disagree with this statement, but it is true.If your mechanics and strategy are good in practice rounds, you should be able to duplicate them during competition. If your game folds when competing, train your mind to stay in the present and let the outcome take care of itself.
Focus on improving your mechanics and strategy.
Golf is a game played by millions, enjoyed by most, yet only mastered by a few. Golf, in theory is simple, however in practice becomes the very opposite. In theory it involves striking a ball around a large field, trying to get it into a designated hole in as few strokes as possible. Easy some might think! However in practice, as with so many things in life, this is not the case. When you consider all of the different aspects that constitute golf, it is little wonder that it is such a difficult game to conquer. Some of the major elements essential to golf are: the human anatomy, psychology, training and practice, equipment, course management, agronomy, and course architecture, and then there is that often talked about topic, entitled, “Swing Technique”!
