So what is golf practice and what are the 4 elements in the golf practice formula that will help you drive your game to lower golf scores?

SLIDE 14

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

"Golf practice is the procedure you use for learning, developing and acquiring golf experience. " You execute golf practice routines to develop, improve and master your golf skills, and you do this by repeating highly specific behaviours many times until you have a very high degree of competency and trust in them.

SLIDE 15

The idea is pretty simple

really. You practice golf

skills so you can perform particular golf shots when they matter to you. It’s certainly not rocket science but it is important that you understand that the elements that support your golf practice platform are planned out before you hit shots.

SLIDE 16

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Golf practice is simply the reinforcement of particular actions that help you to create a specific type of result, or set of results that you desire. And by improving the nature

f the way that you go about

practicing your golf skills, you can in-turn generate the results you seek sooner.

SLIDE 17

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Regrettably when we practice golf skills incorrectly we are setting ourselves up for failure. In other words when we really need to produce a result, this will be the time that the particular shot you’re attempting to play will more than likely not come off as planned.

SLIDE 18

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

An example of practicing incorrectly would be to practice golf skills that you are already very good at. Which is a really popular way to practice with novice to advanced golfers. Many golfers will go to the practice range with the same golf clubs and practice the same routines rather than practicing with the clubs that they find more difficult to use, and also the golf shots they find difficult to play.

SLIDE 19

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

"This is the most effective golf practice method that requires the least amount of effort and produces consistent results in practice and when competing in golf tournaments, based on repeatable - well defined routines that have been proven to work over time."

SLIDE 20

So before you begin designing your golf practice session plan you should understand how 4 vital practice elements will influence your practice effort and ultimately your golf performances…

SLIDE 21

SLIDE 22

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

The stroke volume is the total amount of golf strokes you make during each golf practice session. Most golfers just hit what’s in the range bucket

r the practice bag…

SLIDE 23

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

.

Just hitting lots of golf balls doesn’t guarantee success in golf, but it can guarantee long term injuries.

SLIDE 24

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Ideally you should break your total practice volume down into manageable sets of golf strokes. Hitting 10 sets of 10 golf shots makes it easier for you to stay focused, and it’s also easier to measure and manage your practice effort.

SLIDE 25

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

This is the rate of recurrence of practicing a particular golf skill. How often do you need to practice certain golf skills in a week, and when is the best time to perform the skill set? Should you practice your short putting skills after hitting three sets of drivers – probably not?

SLIDE 26

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Managing the frequency of your golf practice helps you to manage energy expenditure. Fatigue leads to poor focus and poor shot- making and defeats the purpose of good practice.

SLIDE 27

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

When developing your golf practice plan a good rule of thumb is to schedule short game practice sessions and long game practice sessions separately. Practice short game skills in the morning and then long game skills after it and schedule a short recovery break between each session.

SLIDE 28

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

This is your level of your focus or the concentration you involve in practicing each golf stroke. How focused you are with each and every golf shot you hit has much to do with how important the golf shot is to you and also how confident you are at playing it.

SLIDE 29

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

When you break your golf stroke volume down into sets of ten golf shots and you practice the right skills at the best time in the day, you will find it easier to practice with the ideal level of intensity and get the most out of yourself as you work at your game. .

SLIDE 30

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Your practice intensity varies depending on the importance of the practice routine, and by practicing each shot within a pre-planned routine like it really matters to you it will be a lot easier to manage your intensity.

SLIDE 31

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

SLIDE 32

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

When you practice a skill set the key is to control what you’re paying attention to. Your responsibility is to control your eye gaze and maintain it for each and every practice shot.

SLIDE 33

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Golf Practice Duration describes the period of time you actually invest in hitting sets of golf shots, and the time it takes to hit sets of golf shots will vary depending on whether you’re practicing with a pre- shot routine or not.

SLIDE 34

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Technique practice doesn’t usually require the use of a pre-shot routine whereas practicing targeting skills does.

SLIDE 35

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

If you know that it takes you four minutes and 45 seconds to hit ten pitch shots to a target, then you can easily work out how long it will take to hit 5 sets of ten pitch shots to a target which will help you to plan your weekly practice volume more easily.

SLIDE 36

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

The idea is to measure how long it takes you to hit 10 golf shots with different skills you need to practice, like practice drills or putting or chipping to targets etc.

SLIDE 37

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Practicing your golf skills correctly means building a platform of strategies that support and enhance your effort to improve. It’s too easy to go out to the range and just hit golf balls and hope that you will do something that makes you improve.

SLIDE 38

www.ProTourGolfCollege.com

Designing your daily practice sessions with the 4 elements will ensure that you use your time and effort effectively and it will help you to produce more success with your golf shots when it really counts.
