The importance of a pre shot routine

[dufferman]

I think it's essential to have one and I guess that everybody does actually have one, some obviously more subtle and discrete as others.

For me it's a quick check of the grip and a couple of faster than normal practice swings.

I then try to make the real swing 75% , it stops me trying to hit the ball too hard on the shot.

With a good grip on the club and decent tempo you stand a chance of hitting a half decent shot.

Spot on - the phrase pre shot routine usually ends up with people talking about good ol' Keegan Bradley. As long as it's short and sweet, it does the job for me!

I have a repetitive and fairly quick PSR that works for me. I get lazy with posture and shoulder alignment and it's key to me setting up better and giving me half a chance to make a passable swipe at the ball. I've seen some take forever faffing about and it can be of putting if you let it. The key is not to let it

I've been adapting a new PSR just lately as my alignment was in question, now, after a shake of the shoulders as though I'm loosening them I feel I am becoming more square in my set-up and my posture is not too rigid[H/QUOTE]

You've been watching Ernie Els. :thup:

I'm not sure who or where I picked it up from TBH, but, after the ribbing I got from Rickg and AAC, it could have been Donald Duck 😂
