Critical Golf Swing Component That Almost Always Gets Overlooked

by Cameron on July 15, 2008

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.

Update on Playing Golf like Tiger

by Cameron on June 30, 2008

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 [...]

Best golf

by Cameron on June 6, 2008

Playing your best golf doesn’t depend on how expensive your golf clubs, what course you play or how lucky you get. These are “one percenters” that have little or no effect on your score…
You will play your best golf if you learn to manage your nerves and anxiety and play without fear or consequences. The [...]

It's not magic but it's the next best thing…

by Cameron on June 5, 2008

I’ve been receiving emails this week asking if natural and automatic learning can work for the respective senders.
Here’s my short answer;
YES!
A more detailed response is;
If you struggle to play consistently then natural learning can help you.

Courage under fire

by Cameron on June 2, 2008

G’day there,
I’m back after a short break.
A question that I keep getting asked is, “I’ve tried automating my swing but I’m still hitting poor shots”.

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 [...]

Driving to the course knowing you’re going to play well
Focusing on playing golf rather than on golf tips or other gimmicks

Getting your round back on track

by Cameron on April 22, 2008

Have you ever been playing well and then for some stupid reason you hit a terrible shot? A shot that is so bad that it rocks your confidence and makes you wonder where it came from?
It happened to me on Sunday. I was playing well. I had just nailed a tee shot on the 10th [...]

Why your routine is more important than your golf swing

by Cameron on April 18, 2008

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 [...]
