Only half kidding.

 

 

Jesus it's not that hard to work out, how people make out there is more into it baffles me, just watch all the greats same thing over and over again they all kick straight over the man on the mark and follow through, yes the ball drop is part of it and that should not change.

Russel Robertson had problems early then started to kick straight over the mark and it improved, Fritta started to kick straight over the mark and more often than not when he comes in on an arc he misses even if you watch Max he started to improve then has gone back to the arc kick.

If the club wants to improve get the likes of Dunstall down to go through it with them, it cannot hurt.

Great sports people have one thing in common they do the same thing over and over no matter what more often than not.

Is it really that simple? Greg Norman had a technique that nailed shot after shot on the driving range and in normal tournaments, but everyone knew it did not stand up well to pressure where everything moved a bit faster

Each to his own but you don't think Peter Thompson had any global impact ( without choking ) ?

Peter Thompson was a great great golfer but as a face for golf at the time Norman was the biggest.

Repetition. You need to practice practice practice until the act becomes second nature. When the pressure is on you can then fallback on this automaticity and execute. 

Depends how you practice though as well. Block practice vs variable or creative practice etc

Get some angry Demonlanders at training behind the goals deliberately causing distractions to simulate game day conditions with a psychologist on hand conditioning the players against the psyche out.
