========================================================

Take a moment to think about your pre-shot routine - specifically from the moment you ground your club behind the ball until the shot is over. Then answer these questions:
  1. Do you follow the same set-up steps?
  2. Do you follow the steps in the same order?
  3. Do you set up over the ball in the same amount of time, each time?
  4. Do you do a routine every time, on every shot?
  5. Does your routine purposely set you up in the best position for success?
  6. Could you write down the major steps of your routine, and explain why you use them?
  7. Does your routine get you physically and mentally centered in the present, focused only on the task at hand?
  8. Do you execute your routine automatically?
  9. Does your routine hold up in pressure situations
If you do not have a pre-shot routine, then make it your New Years resolution to develop one. It takes your mind off the task at hand and will allow you to execute your shot much, much better.

Here's a link to my personal pre-shot routines: Pre-Shot Routines - Putting and Other to help you get you started on your own. Make your pre-shot routine shorter, longer, or whatever - but make sure you have one.

Don't treat this lightly, having a specific pre-shot routine is an absolute prerequisite for game improvement.

Try it, you'll like it.
