Having been amazed at the sheer brilliance of Tiger Woods this week, it is obvious to me that he has worked very hard on presenting a great image and a powerful body language.
In Tigers' interviews he has been asked several times about his knee, but he deflects the question and answers with one or two words, then giving a positive image. This is seen ever more with his walk, he walks proud and powerful like a gladiator.
Try this, hunch your shoulders and look down, How do you feel? Now walk proud, as tall as possible, How do you feel?
I bet the feelings are very different, try this next time you are on the golf course when things aren't going so well, or if they are.
Give the message of power and strength.

You can't control the uncontrolable
I have played in many conditions, and I have noticed that people are always complaining about the weather, bad bounces and all the misfortunes you happen to have had. I have noticed these people waste valuable energy on these points. The truth of the matter is........
You can only control what you can do, put as good a swing on the ball as possible but also make sure you aim correctly with a great grip and setup. Once the ball is on it's way accept the outcome and embrace the challenge of the next shot.
Remember, control the controllable. Don't sweat the small stuff!!

Versitility
Versitility is the key to success in golf, as the world of golf is changing with the technological advances, the art of golf is now being lost. Ball beating is the norm.
I would like to dare you to be different. Practice with a purpose and make the shift from the driving range to the golf course easier.
Try this.....
Start every session with maintenence work on your grip, posture and your alignment, use mirrors to help you and maybe uae a grip drill that can be used when you play (the 45 degree drill is a good one). For your alignment don't use shafts on the ground, this is cheating. Go through your routine and just as you would take the club back, stop and then put a shaft on your heel line or toe line and see how you are aimed. Do this four to five times. You will see that your alignment will come good in waves so keep on top of it!
