What you are about to learn is the most easy to understand yet highly effective golf lesson I believe you will ever have. This 1 simple lesson is going to improve your golf game faster than you ever thought possible. Most of us who really try and improve our games spend anywhere between $50 to $250 dollars an hour for a golf lesson. What I am going to teach you for a fraction of that cost is a simple golf lesson that will change the way you approach the game and your golf swing forever. If you truly apply this 1 lesson I teach you here your swing and your scores will improve dramatically today.

Every golfer is looking for that little bit of magic. That one lesson or swing thought that is going to get them over the top and take their game to that next level. The lesson I am going to present to you is a different and much simpler approach to the golf swing. I want you to think back to when you were playing golf and you were in that rare zone. That unforgettable moment when you felt like you could not miss a shot and everything was going your way out on the golf course. In those unforgettable moments I want you to think about how you felt when you were having that great round. Do you remember the incredible feel you had and it was like you had blinders on where all you could see was the pin and you were 100% focused in the right place and that was on your target.

In golf for some reason we get too caught up thinking about our technique and lose sight of the single most important fundamental and that's our target. Where you want that golf ball to go. When youre thinking about swing mechanics in the middle of your golf swing youre in effect getting in your own way and not allowing your body to freely and naturally swing out towards your target. Where your mind focuses your body will follow. My goal is get you playing the best golf of your life. Period! The swing exercise you are about to learn in the next chapter I want you to actively participate in as you are reading it. Please just don't read thru the whole lesson and then get to it later. It is a powerful drill.

My lesson to you is build your golf swing around your target. When you do this your golf swing will fall into place naturally. Important fundamentals such as shoulder turn, extension, weight shift, swing plane and even your alignment will start to improve more naturally, quickly and effortlessly than ever before. Your natural ability will take over and your body will instinctively make the proper adjustments to get you hitting it straight. Youre going to feel the difference immediately in your golf swing and you will find that zone more often than you ever thought possible. I have a very simple yet highly effective swing training exercise that I would like you to try. This is a fantastic exercise and should be practiced as much as possible. While you are doing this exercise you are going to see and feel what I am talking about. This exercise can be done on the golf course, driving range or even in your home. This can be done with or without hitting golf balls.

First, I want you to pick a target. It can be a flagstick on the driving range, golf course or even any object in your home and for the next 10 minutes this will be your target. Throughout this exercise I want you to have a very clear mental picture of this target in your head. For 10 minutes I want you to think about nothing else but turning and swinging the golf club away from and towards that target.

I do not want you to have any thoughts of swing mechanics while doing this exercise. Just focus 100% on your target and naturally swing out towards it. You can take a full swing while doing this and again I want you to focus on nothing else but swinging your arms or golf club away from and towards your target. If you are hitting golf balls while doing this exercise which is the best way to practice this I want you to think and feel as if the ball is just getting in the way as you are swinging down and out towards your target.

After a couple minutes you will start to feel what I am talking about. Are your shoulders turning and your weight shifting more freely and properly away from and out towards your target. Does it feel like your arms and the golf club are extending much better out towards your target. Is the golf club going back and thru on a much straighter line towards your target than before. Do you feel your hips clearing and your body and the golf club much more naturally and properly able to get through your swing? This is the feeling you want to have out on the golf course. All you are doing is reacting to your target. The more you practice this the better you will get. You are going to feel the golf club want to start firing out towards your target because that is now where all your focus and energy is. You are getting out of your own way and letting your natural ability take over and building your swing around your target. When you are playing a competitive round of golf and you want to find that zone more your focus should be 100% on your target, where you want that golfball to go rather than how you are trying to get it there.

This is such a simple powerful fundamental that everyone knows yet so few people apply to their game like they should and this is just as important for the advanced player as well as the beginning or intermediate level player.

Many golfers stop improving because they get too caught up thinking about their technique and swing mechanics and do not let their natural ability take over on the golf course. Find your target, focus on it and swing at it. When you do this your body will naturally make the proper adjustments to get you hitting it straight. A much more simple and effective approach to the game.

There are some important fundamentals that all golfers should be aware of such as the grip, alignment, stance and ball position. These all vary slightly based on a persons swing, skill level and body style. Improving your swing mechanics can be an important and for some people enjoyable part of improving your game. There are many great instructors and wonderful books out there that can help you improve those aspects of your game. That is not the kind of lesson I am giving you here. I want you to start playing more by feel and thinking less about your golf swing. I truly believe this will be the easiest and fastest way for you to improve your game.

If you want to work on your swing mechanics or a certain swing thought because you feel or was told you need to do it in conjunction with the lesson I am giving you here. Have designated practice sessions where that will be your primary focus. But on the golf course you are all about keeping it simple. Out on the course your focus should be 100% on your target. This will give you the best chance to succeed and put you in that zone where you will play your very best. I believe you will convince yourself of this through instantly improved play and it will become your main swing philosophy.
