Love this article. I’ve never taken a bad swing in my life. I always take the perfect swing to produce the shot that followed. :)
Hey, people would be envious of my ability to duck hook or push slice a ball. There might come a time where I or someone else would love to have the ability to hit that kind of shot in a given situation. If I can think about what I actually did and felt to hit that shot, I might be able to reproduce it when it’s actually needed.
Know thyself and know thy swing.

What I take from this is that everyone has their own individual swing and the best path to improvement is to learn your swing and make improvements within that. That way you own your swing and can more easily make adjustments on the course. It’s always been my perception that’s what Butch Harmon does. Enough said.

Good thoughts in this article. I like the idea of trying to recreate the bad shot to learn about how that feels. On the range I will also hit different shot shapes to get those feelings too. It’s interesting to me that sometimes I hit a much better shot when trying to do something different. Like getting a more effortless and straighter ball flight when trying to hit a fade. It’s a good clue that I have an exaggeration in my stock swing that needs to be addressed. My miss tends to be an overdraw left pull. Working on fades helps me understand the feels that leads to my bad shot and helps me to temper the exaggerations.
