Pre-shot routines are an excellent way to integrate your focussing skills intoregukar practice or competitions. The pre-shot routine is seen as a fundamental skills in golf and can impact on a player's consistency to their golf.
Below I have listed the 6 steps that help build a pre-shot routine. How many steps do you use? What do each of your steps look like?
1. Planning: Select a visual target and the type of shot you want to hit. Be specific
and commit to the shot.
2. Image: See or feel the type of shot you plan to hit. Make it seem as real as possible.
3. Rehearse: Use a practice swing to feel the shot you want to hit. A key focus on
balance here can be useful.
4. Focus: Stay focussed on execution and the visual, or feel, of the shot.
5. Set-up: Be deliberate in your stance, grip and posture. Take a positive and
decisive approach.
6. Trust: Focus on the target or the ball and let the image of that target, or the
visualised feelings of the good swing, trigger the swing.
