Patience

Recentley, it has come to my attention that most golfers are not patient with their golf swing. It seems that once a player has reached the top of the back swing they become very rushed to move the club forward. I believe the reason for this is different for everyone, however the emotion that presents itself because of the underlying reason appears to be anxiety. I could go into a hundred things that the emotion of anxiety will create in the golf swing, but two of the biggest things are distraction and tension. Consider the possibility of allowing the club to transition at the top of the swing instead of making it transition and you will find a higher level of focus, trust, and I have found...enjoyment!
