Stay focused and don’t try to rush things

When going for a putt, try to grip the club mostly in the fingers so that you can use the natural hinging action of the wrists freely. Don’t rush anything before you play any round of golf. Working back from your starting time, try to give yourself at least an hour to get ready for your round whilst building in ample travelling time.

A possible thought to take with you on your 18-hole journey might be to maintain the same rhythm or tempo of your backswing into the first part of your downswing, especially with your hands.

You’ll move everything faster involuntarily coming down, but trying to sustain your backswing tempo helps smooth out the change of direction. “Waiting for the clubhead” at the top also will help you do this. Try not to start down until you can feel the mass of the clubhead against the tension of the shaft.

Remember: A real man, standing up to the ball armed only with a club, undergoes shortness of breath, tightness in the chest, curling of the toes, back ache, clenched teeth, locked knees, muscle spasms and paralysis. In short, he’s ready to hit.
