Know Where Your Target Is
Author: John Toepel

( Previous Page )

work. We must never try to micro-manage the system or motion. Instead, keep your thoughts focused on the target while you are swinging. This is true with all shots in golf. Spend 20 seconds looking at the target and one second looking at the ball. Don't pick out a huge place for the ball to land, instead pick out a spot the size of a large cooking pot. The more specific you get, the better your opportunity to hit the target. We'll talk more about the target concept later, but suffice it to say that, if you want to hit a house, pick out a single windowpane.

If you know exactly where the target is while you are swinging and exactly the kind of shot you want to hit, your system will manage your body and create the needed swing to deliver the ball the right distance. This is true for all shots in golf but its more fun with the less-than-full swings around the green and the putter.

That's how you do it. Know exactly where your target is, keep it focused in your mind's eye as you swing and let your "system" produce the distance shot you need. Play well.
