Keeping coaching simple is essential in the development of your own game. Our brains are working out a complex movement of muscles, bones and sinew and with a lot of things crowding our mind, these movements become impossible. As a coach, I always try to keep things as simple as possible for a person to process within the swing but even I possibly overthink and over process the golf swing. Simplicity is key and whenever I feel like I am getting too complicated I look at the photo below. I was shown this quite a long time ago now and it does have a certain urban myth about it. I would like to believe that these are the simple notes a student made from a golf coach who got too involved and became complicated. Imagine in 2 seconds tops thinking of all this. The bit I like the most is the ‘ Have fun ‘ note at the bottom, how would it be possible to have fun thinking of all this. |
