I think the importance of a pre-shot routine is often over looked by average golfers. Since playing high school golf, I've always had a pre-shot routine that helps me; correctly set up to where I want to hit the ball, maintain a consistent swing & tempo, relax in pressure situations, and lower my score.
My pre-shot routine consists of:
-2 practice swings.
-Stand behind the ball and grip the club.
-Visualize the ball flying and landing to my target.
-Pick a line from the ball to a target.
-Pick a spot about a foot in front of the ball on that line.
-Step into the ball with my right foot and align the club face to the ball and to the spot a foot in front of the ball.
-Add my left foot and widen my stance, taking a comfortable, athletic position.
-Slightly loosen my grip and stay relaxed.
-Focus on a smooth takeaway and hit the ball!
I always do the same routine on the practice range. If you don't have a pre-shot routine find one that works for you and use it. You'll be surprised at how much better your alignment and precision will be!
