Sometimes on the practice range you’re swinging one of your clubs and you get into a serious groove. One shot after another, just like you want it. When this happens, there are two things you should do.

One is to be quite aware of what is you are doing that is making the difference. Otherwise you’ll never able to repeat it later on.

The second thing is to put the club down and sit down. Sit there for about two or three minutes, and I mean two or three honest minutes, not just thirty seconds. Then go pick up your club and hit another ball, just one.

How did you do? If you got another good shot just like the others, then you might have learned something. Otherwise, it was just a groove, which doesn’t really mean that much.
