Visualize the Shot

       Yesterday I went to the driving range with a bunch of my friends. Lately I haven't been able to hit my driver well and I was kind of avoiding the club altogether. Anyways, I was watching all of the guys crush their drivers - they are guys so of course they want to hit it as far as they could. As I was seeing this good shots that were straight (mostly) and far, I wanted to try my driver again.
      Surprisingly, I was hitting the ball great! They were pretty straight and a lot farther than I would normally hit it. So we continued practicing and I had a good time.
      When I got home I was thinking about why I had hit my driver well. Then I realized it was because of the guys! I was watching their shots and it gave me a visual of what my hit should look like. Being able to see the shot allowed me to focus on it and perform better.
     So next time I get in a funk with any of my clubs I have to visually see the shot before trying to smack it :)
