Improving at golf is trial and error. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes.
Far too many golfers are worried about making mistakes! Even worse, they’re worried about making mistakes on the driving range! That’s the best place to make mistakes and learn!!!

The best golf swing quote of all time……

‘the sole purpose of a golf swing is to produce a correct, repetitive impact. The method employed is of no significance’

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

When can you say you’re ‘good’ at golf?

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

You’re allowed one to two golf swing thoughts. That’s not a problem. It’s when it gets to double figure number of thoughts is when it becomes an issue!

Tennis, unlike golf, is full of little wins!
You win points!
In golf, sometimes you can hit good shots, but still not come away with any small wins.
Be patient with the game!

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

Go play with better golfers if you can

But a word of warning…… don’t put pressure on yourself to try and beat them, try and learn from them!!

Failure is often the father of success

It’s one of three things that can go wrong in a golf shot…… poor contact with Clubface, Clubface not pointing at target at impact or club not reaching ground at correct point. Nothing else matters!

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

Watch all the golf instruction videos you want to…… just don’t put all of the ideas into your own golf swing

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

If you don’t practice, you don’t have the right to get angry over bad golf shots.

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

We live in a world of ‘instant success syndrome’ whereby outsiders mistakenly perceive a persons success to be instant.
This is true in Golf….. don’t just think you can be an instant success in the game. You have to work hard over many years to have any slight scent of success

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

To be able to cope with a golf swing change, you have to have many things in your ‘mental locker’, but the feeling you need most is to understand and differentiate between what the change FEELS like compared to what is ACTUALLY happening.

Is an AI Golf Coach going to take over or will there be a need for the one to one lesson?

[Richard Cartwright @thegolftipsguy]

In golf, you’re going to lose a lot more than you win. So get used to it!
The goal isn’t necessarily winning, the goal is to better yourself everyday when you practise.
This then gives you a BETTER CHANCE of winning!
