Drills for accuracy

Next step will be to look for drills and exercises to develop accuracy in my golf swing. Accuracy is the ability to repeat the same movement - and finding a correct swing path. Even though I am not focusing on power, the tempo/rhytm of the swing will affect the accuracy.

Accuracy is
1) Swing path (stance, address, take a way, backswing, down swing, impact, follow through and finnishing position). Those are the doddied line.
2) Balance
3) Relaxation, rhytm - "soft hands"
4) grip, "cup" on the wrist


So I need to look for drills that help me develop
1) Swing path
2) Balance
3) Natural feel for the swing and club
4) Timing on impact

Starting to look after I come back from the range...

So it is important to take this in account when planning ones development program. Merlin Method has been a tool that I use for planning future (in my work as a project director).

I need to think what does this mean. What do I need to be able to play good golf? I can approach this by thinking of the two si...

Playing golf on the right side of your brain

There is a theory on how brain controls our behavior. Left side is critical, language and logical, Right side is whole, more on space, angles and nonverbal control. You are letting your right side dominate when you don't critique, don't rationalize - just letting the movements flow - like in the zone. What if you could control your thinking? What if you could shift your thinking to right side when ever you like? Play in the zone all the time? I was in the range today and also practiced putting. I tried to use my right side and I think it helped. When I visualized a shot it turned out much better. Also I registered that I have a rotated address position. I had not noticed it earlier - maybe it came from the right side - feedback that my posture is not natural?
