'How Can I Become A Golf Pro, About My Own Game?'
Now that is a 'Right Question'...indeed a real SAQ!
I'll do my best now, to give you my 'Right Answer'.
Yesterday I went into great detail about discovering how I deceived myself in an everyday-type occurence.
By training yourself to habitually/consistently 'Open Your Eyes' in your Golf Game, you will develop HONESTY that will help your whole Golf Game become much more consistent.
If you don't really know how often you can successfully pull-off a certain Golf Shot, I suggest you
Go to the Course in the next few days. Yet, after checking in at the Pro Shop, go to the first tee with the mindset of a Private Eye.
You are hot on the trail of the 'truth' today about your Golf Game today.
After the first hole, now that you are away from the Clubhouse, get to about 100 yards away from #2 Green. Put down 5 or 10 balls and hit them toward the target - BUT ONLY AFTER - you have made 2 Predictions.
Predict how many will be 'On-The-Green' and what your 'Average-Feet-Away' from the hole will be.
If you hit 5 balls, call your third-best one your 'Average Feet Away'. If you hit 10, call your sixth-best your 'Average Feet Away'.
You will discover one of 3 things - and thus become a much more well-versed Golf Pro Expert about YOUR OWN GAME.
You are either: 1-Better Than You Thought You Were, 2-Worse Than You Thought You Were or 3-Were What You Thought You Were.
Let's say you hit 5 Golf Shots from 100 yards and predicted you would have 4 'On-The-Green' and your 'Avearage-Feet-Away' would be 15-feet.
After the 5 Golf Shots - you made sure you did the 'Open Your Eyes' thing. You saw 3 'On-The-Green' and you 'Average-Feet-Away' was 45-feet.
So, you now know you are; 2-Worse Than You Thought You Were.
Now you're getting somewhere!!! You are becoming a 'Golf Pro Expert About Your Own Game'.
You probably learned more form those 5 Golf Shots in 15 minutes 'About Your Own Game' - than what you had learned in the last several hours of beating balls at the RANGE.
This 'drill/way-of-practicing' has too many benefits for me to detail right now...seemingly a million of them. I'll explain more at a later date.
Suffice to say - it has helped many golfers from all around Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana who have spent time with me on the COURSE - for many, many years.
So, to review some of our SAQs from the last few days: 'How Do I Become Consistent?', 'How Do I Become Even More Consistent?', 'What Should I Look For In My Golf Game?' and 'How Do I Become A Golf Pro Expert About My Own Game? are all good and proper 'Right Questions'.
In fact they are no longer SAQs, right,because now you have asked them.
I hope you are getting helped by these 'Right Answers' I'm giving you.

I like two-way communication much better than one-way.
