How do you stop from Making the mental error of having your arms fire first instead of your lower body it seems much easier when you’re doing a full swing and the spring is totally set all the way. When you’re doing a pitch shot here only halfway turned and it seems much easier to make that mistake any good ideas on how to stop making the brain from wanting to swing the upper body first
The magical answer is you understand the concept and you tell yourself not to hit or help the shot with your arms. No matter where it goes just do it. Too many people keep thing about hitting great shots instead of getting it.
A pitch shot is a short shot so of course it is easier. Once you get a driver you are trying to hit it 250 so you think that requires a powerdull feeilng so you try to hit or help it.
Again, just hit easy shots telling yourself not to hit or help it. If you hit it 100 yards that’s great because you at least did it. Once you get used to the feeling you then speed up ONLY your legs and hips to make it go farther. If you cannot do this slowly you will never get it.
It’s surprising to see That amateur GOLFERS have each a différent routine ,or nô routine at all ,when you look at what THE top champion pro’s do IN THE major tournaments :THE pro’s have all ,more or less ,THE same routine and they set up to THE ball IN approxomately THE same Time .THE routine incorporates also THE mental side ,THE visualization and THE ” small tallk ” you givre to yourself before starting THE swing .
Paul ,I don’t know what you Will respond to Mr Bruce JESPERSEN IN his question above ,bur as for me every thing starts simultaneously ,lower body ,upper body ,Arms ,hips :when I am at THE top OF m’y backswing ,and I am assured I’m there ( there’s a pause in my mind ,REAL or not ,I don’t quite know ),all I do is to” fire” Arms and hips simultaneously ,making sure m’y left hip MOVES forward and turns .

Paul WilsonRaymond,
They either have a different routine or they do not care about their routine. Hopefully, everyone here will develop one.
