Mind Practice

Researchers doing studies on Olympic athletes have found that the brain cannot differentiate between what is really happening and what is imagined.

Tests done on these world-class athletes showed that the brainwaves for the athletes were the same whether they were actually running or simply imagining they were running.

What this means to golfers is if you can imagine yourself making that move your pro taught you, its the same as you pounding bucket after bucket of balls at the range. The advantage you have with visualisation is that you can corroborate easily the changes by visualising and then practicing in front of a mirror. Try it and see how you fare.

If you can conceive the image of you swinging in a proper fashion then you can achieve it.
