Swing thoughts

[User 105]

If I've been working on something specific on the range then I'll have that as the 1 thought for the round and won't change it. Regardless of how I'm swinging or what else is wrong.

I found in the past I'd start with one thought, make a bad swing, analyse it, then there's two thoughts. By the time I'm half way round I could end up with 4-5. Recipe for disaster.

When I'm not working on something, which is rare, then I try to have no swing thoughts. Just pick a target and hit the ball there. That's usually when I play my best golf.

I find if I just think about my swing plane that's the only thought I need.

If I am on plane chances are I am going to be striking the ball really well.

If I overload my thoughts it all goes pear shaped.

If i'm on plane it means I am going on my holidays

My current swing thought is to make sure that I release the club just before impact at the bottom of the swing.

Don't you get fed up having to walk and pick it up again?

Hello Homer, I think you are confusing release with throw. Throw means you have to let go of the club at the top of the swing, and that is when you have to walk and pick it up again.
