The 50-40-10 Recipe
Success on the golf course is not a mystery; it is a disciplined recipe. A golf swing takes a little more than one second, which means there is hardly any time to think during the swing.
My formula for success is:
50% Mental Picture: The clarity of the shot you intend to hit.
40% Setup: The foundation of the grip, posture, and alignment.
10% Swing: The athletic motion that results from the first two steps.
When the mental picture and setup are in order, the body organizes itself naturally. If you are brilliant at the basics, your swing will improve without you having to consciously think about it.
