Swing Change Learnings: A Decade of Golf Insight

Swing Change Learnings: A Decade of Golf Insight

Swing change is a heck of a task. My swing change learnings are derived from blood, sweat and tears. I’ve been at this for 10 years and have gone through 7 major swing changes just to really understand how change works.

5 successes with anything between 5-50 000 repetitions and 2 fails due to non fit from a golfer perspective.

Swing Change Learnings – General Advice

Leave the result out of it at the start. Focusing on outcome drags you back into comparison mode and makes swing change much harder.

Go off-grid for a while. Give yourself space to truly adapt and the space you need to subconsciously dare to change.

Study, study, study. You need to understand the why of swing change to intellectually accept it. The first part you need to understand is what’s in the way between your current motion and what you wish to change into. The second part is to actually understand the end product. This knowledge will make your swing change journey so much more efficient.

Swing Change Learnings – Biggest Personal Break Through

The above applies to any swing change.

On top of that, my biggest personal breakthrough — and one that’s central to the FMM Project — is this: 👉 I want mechanics to happen as a result of simple intentions, I want swing thoughts (carefully chosen) to be the driver of my change instead of mechanical drills.

Whatever you’re working on, I wish you the best of luck. Just know: swing change takes blood, sweat, and tears… but it’s worth it. If you need a sparring partner then reach out, I’m not solely focused on just teaching my stuff. I love to help where I can add value.
