Bucket,

I'll try this one. I thought Overkill might. Let's start with putting. I never want to be standing over a putt thinking about anything, not face or pace. I want my eyes to soak it in, and let the computer do it. Say I have a slow putt, uphill and into the grain. I'm not going to tell myself to get it to the hole or hit it harder. I will say, "This putt is uphill and into the grain," while I am reading the putt. I trust that the computer will add in that factor. If it is really fast, I might spot putt it.

For short game I just make practice swings looking at my landing spot. One player told me to take the contact for granted. He thought that trying for contact upset his touch.

I'm a big numbers guy, so for a shot that is less than full, I just think "152." Similar to the way I putt. I don't stand there trying to make a 7/8 swing or whatever. You might not use the number, you might feel different pressure. It is important to practice adjusting your distances. Try hitting a full 9 iron and then an 8 to the same spot on the range. Start with the wedges and go down through the bag to the 5 iron. I don't like fiddling too much with the longer irons other than to smoke one low.
