The Secret To Consistent Golf
Golfers all over the world are striving to do one thing: play consistent golf. The lack of consistency from day to day, shot to shot frustrates all golfers. Why do you think this happens? Why are golfers so inconsistent?
Basically, golfer are so inconsistent due to their focus. Most golfers are not very diciplined when it comes to focusing on one idea, one concept. There is a wealth of information out there about coaching and various aspects of golf through magazines, internet videos and the opinions of the friends. Our mind gets paralyzed by this information overload, we are stripped of the ability to focus on the single most important thing at any given time. That my friend is why golfers are terribly inconsistent. How can you be consistent when you do something different every round of golf? Nearly all golfers have a different swing thought or idea each day they play. Rotate more, swing your arms, follow through higher. It is this constant jumping around from day to day, to shot to shot that leads us to the most frustrating aspect of golf: inconsistency.
How do you improve this inconsistency? You must go on an information diet. That is stop reading magazines and listening to friends advice. Your playing partners and friends can’t really play the game properly for themselves. {You are listening to their advice that has been recycled in magazines but never worked for them~You keep listening to your friends or playing partners advice that has been in every magazine but didn’t work for them}~Your playing partners and friends can’t really play the game properly for themselves. {You are listening to their advice that has been recycled in magazines but never worked for them}~You keep listening to your friends or playing partners advice that has been in every magazine but didn’t work for them}. It acts as a viral disease that infects the entire golf population. Go and find someone, a professional coach or a mind coach. Listen to their instructions, and implement their advice and never stop.

The best example I can give is if I was teaching you to play a song on piano. Let’s pretend that the song has 1,000 notes or keys to hit. We could put post it notes on each key and number the keys in the correct order. 1 to 1000. You could strike each of the keys in the correct order because they are numbered. How would the song sound? Terrible. Because the gaps and the timing probably wouldn’t be right and there would be no flow to the song. Let me ask you this burning question. Does this mean that we change the song or the notes? No, all we need to do is to keep performing the same routine and sequence better and better to improve the song.
Most golfers never get to this stage because in the example above they would just change the song, over and over again. So in order to be more consistent, remove yourself from the information funnel and focus on just one swing thought or idea and keep working on it again and again. This is the secret to consistent golf.
