Variability Practice
The Best Training Aid For Indoor or Outdoor Practice
The Divot Board
This is the most useful ball striking development training aid that I own.
Variability Practice
For simplicity, all advice on actual swings or drills is provided from a right handed perspective.
Here's a simple tweak to your range practice that will pay big dividends - Variabiity Practice.
It works because you don't get better by repeating the same thing perfectly. You get better by learning how to adjust.
One of the biggest problems when making swing changes is that we often try to make a movement "just right" without ever gaining awareness of what "too much" or "too little" feels like.
We need to build adaptable swings that can self-correct, and only making swings in ideal conditions that same way over and over doesn't create lasting changes.
Try this instead:
- Underdone - Do the movement with too little exaggeration.
- Overdone - Exaggerate it way too much.
- Just Right - Find the balance between the two.
The brain learns movement through contrast. If you only ever try to do it "just right," you won't know how far is too far or not far enough.
Try it, you'll like it!
