Two very important viewpoints on practicing your golf swing!

15 May

These are two viewpoints regarding how you practice most effectively. One from a wise old sage who was one of the most elegant and brilliant teachers of the golf swing, Mr. Percy Boomer and another viewpoint from a contemporary master of learning, Mr. Daniel Coyle. Here is what Daniel Coyle has to say about “practice”:

“Q: Why is targeted, mistake-focused practice so effective?
A: Because the best way to build a good circuit is to fire it, attend to mistakes, then fire it again, over and over. Struggle is not an option: it’s a biological requirement.”

Excerpt From: Coyle, Daniel. “The Talent Code.” Bantam Books, 2009-04-28. iBooks.

This is the contemporary way to express scientifically how human beings perfect “positions and movements” such as those found in the golf swing!

Next, is how this principle would have been expressed in earlier years, before scientific proof! , by a master teacher, Mr. Percy Boomer:

“We will simplify the things you have to learn by stringing them together, (chunking) into cycles of sensation, (habituating neural pathways), because they are easier to remember”.

I have placed the terminology I use in the Amazing Angle swing training system in parentheses. What is true is always true! It is Amazing to me how an old idea can be so right then and just as right when expressed in modern scientific terminology!

The Amazing Angle swing training system is based on these principles. If you want more information on how to improve your game visit http://www.amazinganglegolf.com.
