My balance work has been going pretty well.  I find my body reacts well to the energy in my hands and my shots are going where I want them to for the most part.

Today was a very windy day at the range, but at least the temperature is cooperating, the snow is begining to melt, although the golf course is still covered.  Still I’m feeling like I’m making good progress.

Rob noticed something about me today since starting the 30 day challenge.  He noticed that I’m smiling more and I’m not as intense.  Now don’t get me wrong, intensity is important, but I think the way I had it going was putting pressure.  Pressure creates tension, and tension, well, can ruin a golf swing.  It’s funny but not focusing on how my golf swing looks has really had other effects than on just the swing.

My outlook on the game is different.  It feels like a much easier game now, and that alone makes this challenge really worthwhile for me.  Sure having better distance and accuracy helps, but not having 30,000 swing thoughts has helped even more and my progress continues.

I can’t wait for the golf season to start for real.  It’s amazing what a shift in perspective will do for you.  I touched on that in an earlier post but what I’m experiencing is amazing.  I feel that any changes I need to make are easier to make because I have more awareness of what my body is doing.  I’m not trying to consciously control it.  I’m focusing on the letting the body react to them.  I still have work to do.  I feel like the path my hands take can be improved but so far progress is good.
