I received the below email from Ben over the weekend. I like it and highlights my thoughts on automatic learning for golf.
Too many minds:
A while back when on a plane I was watching a Tom Cruise movie called ‘The Last Samurai’, (and yes I know what you’re thinking but the truth is there wasn’t much [...]

What’s the most important part of any golf swing?
Grip? Stance? Backswing?
Nope. At least not if you ask me.
I believe the critical aspect of any golf shot you play is the walk to the ball. Sound a bit strange? Let me explain myself.
The walk to the ball is critical because it is the time you need [...]

After Tiger won this year’s US Open I wrote about why I think he’s so dominant. Briefly, I believe that he is the most automated and natural athlete in the world. It seems he never plays safe. He lets go, and hits every shot like it’s his last. There appears to be little self-doubt, confusion [...]

OK, so Tiger has done it again. It was an enthralling US Open that was action and drama packed right to the end. Who would have thought it would take 91 holes for Tiger to beat Rocco Mediate, the 157th ranked player in the world?
My hat goes off to Mediate. If my memory serves me [...]

I’ve been receiving emails this week asking if natural and automatic learning can work for the respective senders.

YES!
A more detailed response is;
If you struggle to play consistently then natural learning can help you.
If you yip and stuff up those easy putts and chips then automatic playing can restore your confidence.
If you feel [...]

Do you want to play better golf? Most golfers that write to me do but the vast majority don’t know how to do it.
First of all let’s define what better golf is.
My simple version is being able to play good golf out on the golf course. For most golfers this will be hitting shots and [...]

Here’s a list of things that make playing golf more automatically and natural worthwhile;
Driving to the course knowing you’re going to play well
Focusing on playing golf rather than on golf tips or other gimmicks
Playing to your handicap (or better) more of the time
Having a strategy to successfully negotiate first tee nerves
Playing better under pressure [...]

Many golfers spend so much time worrying about their golf swing technique that they have little or no chance of playing their best golf.
Traditional instruction focuses almost exclusively on golf mechanics so it really is not surprising that golfers place a high amount of emotional energy on their golf swing. They don’t know what else [...]
