Golf With Confidence

See your target and landing area.
Bobby Jones, one of the greatest golfers ever to play the game, once said: "Golf is a game played on a six-inch course. Between your ears." Golf is defiantly a mind game and in order to play with confidence you need to stay in focus and have a game plan. You can't make a good shot without confidence.

Before you Swing
Step 1:
Golf is a mind game and in order to play with confidence you need to stay in focus and have a game plan. You can't make a good shot without confidence. Before you swing you have to find your target and landing area. Here in the photo on the par three 10th hole at Horsham Valley we can see a targeting the sky. This is where we will aim for or trajectory of our ball and we also see a target on the green. This is our landing area. In order to build confidence we need to see these targets in our mind so we know where the ball is going. To keep your mind clear your last thought would be the target and letting the ball go to the target. There are also steps that lead up to this.
Step 2:
Assess the target and the trouble in the shot. Sand, Water, rough. Find the best spot where if you do miss the shot you won't end up with any chance of recovery.
Step 3:
Stick to your pre shot routine to make sure we are aiming at our intended target and feel our tempo so we will swing the club not hit the ball. At this time we can also recall a great shot we hit in the past that was around the same distance. During our practice swing we can feel and remember the tempo we had on that great shot. This is a great confidence builder because we have done it before.
Step 4:
Make your last swing thought the place where you want the ball to go. Stay focused on that target and not any trouble that might be in the shot.
Step 5:After you hit your shot there is a few things to keep in mind. First is that the shot is over. If it was a good shot you can store it in the back of your mind for another day. If it was bad than throw it away and don't dwell on it or think about it until you get to it and are ready for the next shot. It might not be as bad as you think.
