If you have mastered the basics of a golf swing, now you need simplify your swing thoughts to produce consistency. Try concentrating on only on two basics--balance and rhythm.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Set up, then take your first practice swing concentrating only on balance. You should be able to feel your stability and weight shift throughout the swing. If you sense any balance problems, take additional practice swings thinking only about balance.

  2. Step 2

    Take your next practice swing concentrating on rhythm. Think about keeping a smooth rhythm throughout the swing without focusing in on any particular part of it.

  3. Step 3

    Take your final stance and think about balance and rhythm. Exclude any other thoughts during execution of the shot.

  4. Step 4

    Rate yourself on balance and rhythm after each shot. If you had weight-shift problems or finished the shot off-balance, take more practice swings concentrating on overall balance. If your balance was good, take practice swings that emphasize smooth rhythm. Use these two simple swing thoughts to improve your consistency and lower your score.
