How does a pre shot routine regain focus? I have a pre-shot routine but the stop and go nature of the game on our courses even works against this. One huge difference I have noticed watching a good deal of profesional players live in a variety of sprots (including PGA Tour golf) is the overall rhythm of their overall play. When watching on television you dont see a good deal of the stuff that goes on in between takes. These guys whole routine is like some sort of dance. There did not appear to be one wasted bit of energy & the level of focus is very apparent to all around. These guys don't even see the crowds of spectators because of this focus. On the Tour if someone starts playing slow they are put on the clock. Why are they being penalized? Well, slow play effects the quality and level of play of even these top notch players. When a player, no matter what his level, is unable to get into a rhythm his play will suffer no matter what his pre-shot routine. It not that I disagree because at times my pre-shot routine helps but when you end up wating all the time between shots it gets crazy. What is one to do?
