Playing your best golf shouldn’t feel like you have to walk a tightrope of technical perfection. Fluctuation and variation are allowed. Your best shots don’t always require your best swings, find freedom in that thought. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Changing a golf swing requires repetition plus mental and physical effort, over an extended period of time. Genuine and lasting change won't be found in hints, tips and fixes. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

When striving to play golf well, feel is ultimately more important than fact; and that's a, umm, fact (kind of)… 🤨🤔😖 #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

The golf swing is a blend of whole body motion... It's neither just an "arm swing" nor is it just a "pivot". Feelings and cues may differ from player to player but every part of us has a role to play, in every shot. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Are we more capable of playing this game to a far higher standard than we currently do? Do we make the learning process far longer and more arduous than it needs to be? The complexity is often blamed but is it really that complex? #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Body language conveys messages about confidence, commitment, motivation and attitude. The importance of projecting a positive attitude with appropriate body language should not, therefore, be underestimated. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Golf’s most competent players take approx 1 sec to reach impact, from beginning the backswing. When striving for the desirable ratio of 3 parts back to 1 part down, the downswing will last a mere .25 of a sec! Intention shapes the motion. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Create momentum… Work against the momentum… Release the momentum… Ride the momentum… Rest. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

There are five impact variables which combine to produce ball flight 1. Strike 2. Aim 3. Path 4. Attack Angle 5. Speed. Learning to find the middle of the club face (1. Strike), consistently, provides an opportunity to organise the other four. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

True acceptance flushes out doubt, inhibition and a fear of failure. It promotes clarity of mind and freedom of movement. It removes the barriers which limit potential. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach @mark_immelman

The hands hold the golf club. The arms transport the hands. The body accommodates the arm swing. The arm swing and body motion will organise in response to the intended ball flight. Begin by identifying what ball flight you would like to see. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Don’t assume you move the same way on the golf course as you do on the practice ground. The environments are vastly different. Transitioning successfully from one situation to the other can often present a problem solving challenge. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

A true champion has the ability to come back from the pits of despair. They have the ability to turn adversity into advantage, using each negative or unfortunate experience to become more dogged and determined in pursuit of sporting excellence. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Say less, do more. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

QUALITY IN = QUALITY OUT . Start at the beginning and don't be afraid to take the time required to encourage lasting change. . I don't believe in “fixing swings”, I strive to help golfers to learn how to control the ball. . #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Uninterrupted motion. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Bear in mind that a functional golf swing only really has two requirements 1. Make contact with the ball 2. Send the ball to an intended target… It’s quite astounding what the golf coaching industry has become. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

If you don't train hard today, someone else will... #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach
