Why Deliberate Practice Matters #shorts

The thing that is really missing for most junior golfers, they don't have this level of precision with their own game. They don't understand, hey, I'm struggling in this area specifically. Being able to have that precision in your game is crucial. We start working together and they're so certain that they know what's going on in their game that they think, oh, I don't need to track my stats. And it's like those kids always get stalled out, right? They always don't improve. And then I'm just like, dude, just do the thing I told you to do. So this spreadsheet I use to track all my students. Right. I'm not saying that every student who ever works with me is a superstar instantly. Um, as you can see, I've got a little, a little tiny handful, a little less than a handful of students who have actually not gotten better. And as you can kind of see, high correlation, more rounds tracked, better results. So if I'm just saying, hey, you apply this process, you log a round of golf per week to play Division 1 golf. Um, it's not really, it's not really that big of a jump here. Um, So just to kind of like recap for you guys, if your child isn't improving as fast as you know they could, especially if they kind of hit that like high 70s, low 80s range, there's not— they're not improving, then the key here is we need to start getting more precise about what their game actually looks like, then be more precise about what we're going to do to fix it and what the highest priority is there. Just get more precise about what your child is actually doing and you'll start to see that that progress. And so again, something you want help with, link in the description. But otherwise, just start tracking their statistics. That on its own can make a massive difference.
