00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
This concept video is keeping focus all the way through the shot.

00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,000
So many golfers struggle with inconsistency and we just had Debbie Cruz out here who did

00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,000
a great one day for us and we used their device to work on focus.

00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
But there was one concept that came up that I thought would be really easy for you to apply.

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:26,000
And that's the challenge of trying to keep a simple focus throughout the entire swing.

00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:33,000
So basically having a focus and an intention all the way until you stop moving.

00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Not necessarily all the way till ball lands but at least until you stop moving.

00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And what we tend to see is that golfers will lose their focus at one of a couple different positions.

00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Either they'll have no clear intention to start so they'll have no plan of where they're going to go

00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
or where the target is or shot shape.

00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
They'll have no real clear focus.

00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000
She would be in and after transitions.

00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
So they might have focused in the takeaway and get to the top of the swing that they want.

00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:10,000
But then as they start down they kind of blackout and that can cause some body-solving or some inconsistent loading patterns.

00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,000
That can cause low point control.

00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Some of your common misses.

00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:21,000
So one of the little takeaways was making sure that you had some type of thought on this side of the ball.

00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,000
And then some type of thought on this side of the ball.

00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000
She was a big fan of the follow-through position and trying to train kind of where you want to be after impact.

00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,000
But she always liked or also liked just training a good balanced finish position.

00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000
So what I recommend is if you're going to be detailed and worry about that follow-through position,

00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,000
then have something maybe a little bit more general at top of the swing transition or release

00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
so that you can have a general soft focus and then a little bit more intent there.

00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
And if you're really working on transition or top of the swing,

00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:06,000
then just have a more general thought of getting to a nice full finish.

00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:13,000
But that will allow you to maintain a certain level of brain activity or focus during the entire swing.

00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,000
And that will lead you to more consistent results.

00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:24,000
It would be really hard for me to demonstrate losing focus because it happened somewhat reflexively and not,

00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,000
you know, it's hard to control when I'm going to shift focus.

00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:39,000
But I will show what can happen if you take some swings and focus on a good solid rhythm and solid.

00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Follow-through position.

00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,000
And you'll tend to see more stability and kind of clarity down through there.

00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:50,000
And you'll tend to feel more calmness between impact and follow-through position.

00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Where if I was to, I'm going to put all of my attention back here and try to not worry about where the club is going to go.

00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,000
I'm going to almost overtrain this position.

00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:10,000
And you may see, I did my best on that to really train this position.

00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:16,000
And I almost felt a little bit uncomfortable because I didn't have the other side of the ball taken care of.

00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,000
So if you find that down around impact, you tend to have a little bit of a stall,

00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:29,000
a little bit of apprehension, putting focus on both sides of the ball will help you maintain a consistent focus through the entire shot.
