Pre-shot routine by Gary Ley
The pre-shot routine is an effective way of improving a golfer’s focus element and provides for consistent shot making.
A pre-shot routine is a sequence of thoughts, checkpoints, movements or details that a golfer goes through before hitting any golf shot.
Routine is good for preventing negative thoughts prior to hitting a golf shot and gets the player to focus solely on the shot at hand.
All the best golfers in the world from pros to scratch amateurs will each have their own certain movements that they go through before each shot, and typically, they perform these mannerisms identically for each shot. They would have practiced out these set patterns both on the driving range as well as out on the golf course.
Your own personal pre-shot routine should fit your style and rhythm as a player. Each golfer should try to match the tempo or rhythm of their pre-shot routine to that of their personality and the way they play golf. Do you play fast or slow or perhaps in between? For instance, if you are a very fast-paced individual it probably would not work very well for you to have a long, drawn out, methodical and slow-paced pre-shot routine. Likewise, if you are methodical and plodding, it is not likely a short and hurried pre-shot routine would serve you very well. . Take some careful thought and some conscious and deliberate practice to work on your individual routine, which best suits. Include the details that are important to you, and match your style and rhythm. Make sure you follow the sequenced pre-routine for all your shots during a round of golf. This should also include shots around the green, even those actually on the putting surface.
Once you have developed a set pre-routine that works well for you, not only will it became part of your game you will also notice the vast improvement in your consistency and scores.
