Give It Time to Sink In

As we address the ball, occasionally something happens that makes us want to change our mind. It may be a change in the wind, something about our lie or stance that we didn’t notice before, or an uneasy feeling about our club selection. When you change your mind about how you’re going to play a shot just before you execute it, there’s more that needs to be done than you might think. When you change your mind, you need to leave time for two things to happen. First, your mind has to get comfortable with the new idea. Clear away any lingering thoughts about the old plan. You need to be completely committed to the new plan in your body, as well as your mind.
