It Can t Be As Simple As That! How Breathing Can Benefit Your Golf Game
I've heard all about that breathing stuff before! ' is a phrase that I have come across countless times over the past few years working with players at all levels of the game. Yet age old traditions such as Yoga and the Martial Arts seem to have heard all about that breathing stuff for a few thousand years yet still seem to give it paramount importance! In Hawaii the ancient discipline of Huna has as its central theme the importance of the breath. The story is that in Hawaii they look at the only difference between someone who is alive and well and someone who has just passed away is the absence of the breath.
Pressure Putts and How to Hole Them!
One of my fondest memories of working with top players was the time spent with Darren Clarke just prior to him winning his second World Golf Championship in Akron when we really seemed to hit on something with his putting. Possibly the most 'mental' aspect to golf is actually rolling the ball into the cup. In terms of actual physical demands on your body and co-ordination putting doesn't rank too high. As the old saying goes 'my grandmother could have holed that! ' and in many ways she probably could because physically the task is relatively small. Ask you granny to pummel the ball three hundred yards off the tee however and we have a bit more of a problem.

Why Make Putting So Hard
Golf is hard. You have to swing the club head 15 feet or more and return it to the exact spot it started from. Not to mention that it must be on the correct path when it gets back to the ball. Putting, on the other hand, requires you to move the club head as little as 6 inches, and return it to the ball on the path you took it away on. Putting is easy. It really amazes me how people like Stan Utley can recommend that you open the putter face on the way back and close it back to where it was on the way back to the ball. Why complicate such an easy thing like short putting? Even when somebody has nothing to do all day but practice putting the best they can hope for is a little bit of inconsistency that will usually show up at just the wrong time.
Putting and Your Natural Instincts
Putting is hard because you need to hit such a small target while controlling the speed at the same time. The only other game like it is pool. But unlike pool, the method most golfers are taught is contrary to common sense and only makes the game more difficult. In fact, I would go so far as to say that modern putting instruction is the biggest road block to putting improvement for the average golfer. The instruction avenues available to most golfers lead them to believe the stroke is complicated. Even worse, they are lead to believe that without a perfect stroke there is no way to putt good.
What Makes Target Putting Work?

That makes the results immediate and universal. And the improvement will last the rest of your golfing life. Target putting is not like anything else you may have tried before. In fact, it throws the teachings of such "superstars" as Stan Utley and Dave Pelz out the window in favor of common sense and proven results. It does this by showing the golfer, regardless of their skill, how to use the natural targeting instincts that all humans have.
