Some players are cursed
with a beautiful swing – on the driving range – but can
never take it to the course. Others are blessed with the
ability to score with swings that look like an octopus
in a telephone booth, like Jim Furyk.
Do you need to work on mechanics? Sure, but when the
bell rings you’ve got to find a way to score. When
playing golf don’t be concerned about “how” it looks,
the scorecard doesn’t know any better, but rather what
you need to do to get this little white ball in the hole
in the fewest strokes possible.
Ultimately, players need to control the clubface,
their pivot, and their chosen club path. These three
pieces can make the difference between success or
failure on the golf course. If these three do not match
up, the player is doomed for a golf life spent in
mediocrity.
I guess the next step is to see your pro for assistance
in pulling all your pieces together. |
