"Swing

"Try
to
make
your
swing
effortless.
Swing
ten
times
without
stopping
and
the
swish
drill."

"Very
tough
question
to
answer
--
since
different
words/thoughts/phrases/drills
etc.
work
differently
for
different
people.
One
of
the
attributes
that
makes
a
teacher
a
great
teacher
is
his
or
her
ability
to
make
'adjustments'
with
each
and
every
student.
There
is
certainly
no
'one
way'
to
teach
golf.
The
teacher
must
be
able
to
work
with
the
particular
student
and
their
traits/tendencies/abilities."

"Focus
on
propelling
the
ball
to
the
target.
Let
your
body
figure
out
HOW
to
do
it."

"Have
fun
in
life
and
golf
or
kiss
it
off!
Swing
through
the
ball
and
do
not
hit
at
it.
The
ball
goes
where
your
hands
go.
See
the
ball
come
off
the
clubface.
One
and
through."

"A
steady
head.
I
always
use
the
word
steady
as
opposed
to
still.
'Quiet'
is
a
good
word
also.
This
sort
of
follows
Mr.
Penick's
thoughts
of
saying
simply
'be
at
ease'
rather
than
'don't
be
tense.'
Anyway,
the
word
'steady'
allows
for
a
little
movement
and
doesn't
paralyze
the
student."

"One
thought
to
have
is:
Don't
think!
Do
all
your
swing
thoughts
in
your
pre-shot
routine,
then
go
blank
and
FEEL
what
you
have
just
thought
about.
Keeping
your
head
steady
is
a
good
swing
FEEL,
and
it
will
produce
a
solid
hit."

"The
best
swing
thought
is
pick
out
the
smallest
fixed
target
possible
and
swing
to
it."
