What is really the best way to hit a golfdrive?

Well, believe it or not it has to do with leverage. As with many parts of this great game it has to do not so much with what you are thinking but rather the law of physics. By using the levers of the club and the body you can hit better, straigther and longer, but How?

The first and foremost rule is not to thinking of hitting the golfball but rather swining the club from one point to another. In the middle of this road lies a golfball, that you are going to carry with you. By doing what we normally do, namely trying to hit the ball, we are setting the mind for the golf ball being the end of the swing. So next time think of the total swing and hit the ball half way through.

The other important piece of advice concerns the way we think. When I tell you the classic “Don´t think of a pink elephant” what did you just think of? RIGHT! The mind tries to do what you are thinking of and cant understand the word DON´T. This means that when you focus on the negatives “I shall NOT hit the water”, “I must NOT get into the bunker” The mind is a bit dumb and tries to hit the water or the bunker. Instead think of where your landing area that you WANT to hit and it´s a totally different game.

Men hallå. Varför har vi fått lära oss att 8+ grader är en bra standard för kylskåp så att maten håller bra?

Vi har nu under 2 års tid genomfört husbyten med familjer i andra länder. Vi byter hus och bil med en annan familj för en kostnad av 0 kronor (skriver jag om i ett annat inlägg). Båda dessa familjer såväl den franska som den italienska har sänkt temperaturen på vårt kylskåp till 3+. Som ordentliga svenskar har vi förstås återställt temperaturen till den rätta, 8+ när vi kommit hem.

Denna gång när vi landade hemma bestämde vi oss för att det kanske var vi i Sverige som var udda. Sedan dess har vi 3+ i kylskåpet och en fräschare mat.

Coaching has over the last couple of years been highlighted and there are many models to coach by. The most important person however is to coach yourself.

First establish the Goal.

Next examine Current Reality.

This is a very important step. Too often, people try to solve a problem without fully considering their starting point, and often they are missing some of the information they need to solve the problem effectively.

Thirdly explore the Options.

Once you have explored the Current Reality, it’s time to explore all the possible options you have for solving the problem.

Lastly establish the What, Who & When.
