Golfers would benefit from thinking about their swing like baking five cherry pies.
What does it take to make a pie?
You collect your ingredients.
Turn on the oven.
Mix the ingredients.
Bake in the oven
Hopefully pull it at the right time and don’t burn the pie…
In golf, your ingredients are the golf course and the situation at hand.
There’s a distance.
There’s a direction.
And a speed.
Questions what happens if you overcook the pie? Would going back and changing the ingredients do anything? Of course not! You’ll need to start another pie and in this case, play your next shot.
Arguing with the outcome is like trying to fix a burnt pie. Complaining about the outcomes is like trying to fix a butter pie. Move onto the next one. Remember the most important shot you’ll ever hit… is the next one!
