00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.699
Hey guys and welcome back to RotarySwing
2
00:00:01.699 --> 00:00:04.099
.com. I'm your instructor Chris Tyler and
3
00:00:04.099 --> 00:00:05.459
for this week's tour analysis, we're
4
00:00:05.459 --> 00:00:06.200
going to be doing something a little
5
00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:07.759
different. We've done lots and lots of
6
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:09.199
videos on Jason Day, he's had an
7
00:00:09.199 --> 00:00:11.220
excellent couple of years and rather than
8
00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:12.500
focusing on his swing, we're going to be
9
00:00:12.500 --> 00:00:14.580
talking about the importance of pre-shot
10
00:00:14.580 --> 00:00:15.359
visualization.
11
00:00:21.699 --> 00:00:23.079
Okay guys, so if you get to watch any
12
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:24.500
golf this past weekend, You probably saw
13
00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:26.460
Jason Day pull out another victory and
14
00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:29.039
get himself back into the winner's circle
15
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:30.300
there. So congratulations to him.
16
00:00:31.100 --> 00:00:33.219
And often times, we're so focused on the
17
00:00:33.219 --> 00:00:34.600
golf swing that we never really spend
18
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:36.420
time talking about the mental aspect of
19
00:00:36.420 --> 00:00:37.960
the game. I know we just recently
20
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.259
released a video on how to develop laser
21
00:00:40.259 --> 00:00:42.619
-like focus, and this video is going to
22
00:00:42.619 --> 00:00:44.520
really start to kind of compound on that.
23
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:46.579
And if you watch Jason Day and his pre
24
00:00:46.579 --> 00:00:47.179
-shot routine,
25
00:00:47.700 --> 00:00:49.140
when he stands in from behind the golf
26
00:00:49.140 --> 00:00:51.520
ball, he actually closes his eyes. And
27
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:53.439
what he's doing there is he's visualizing
28
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:55.039
the golf shot that he wants to execute.
29
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.939
So he actually has openly said that when
30
00:00:57.939 --> 00:01:00.640
he's closing his eyes, he's visualizing
31
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:02.899
himself standing in front of him. And he
32
00:01:02.899 --> 00:01:05.299
can actually see himself swing back, he
33
00:01:05.299 --> 00:01:07.560
can see himself swing through, and he can
34
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:09.480
also see the golf ball leave at the same
35
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:09.840
time.
36
00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:12.459
After he gets comfortable with the shot
37
00:01:12.459 --> 00:01:14.640
that he's visualizing, it's then at that
38
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:16.959
point he starts to pick his target and
39
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:19.400
then he walks into the golf shot. And
40
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:21.560
he's seeing the target mostly, he can
41
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:22.840
still see the golf ball out of his
42
00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:25.299
periphery. And at that point, he gets
43
00:01:25.299 --> 00:01:27.980
into a shot, gets himself set, and then
44
00:01:27.980 --> 00:01:30.340
goes ahead and executes. Now let's talk
45
00:01:30.340 --> 00:01:31.799
about the importance of visualization.
46
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.560
Why is this an important aspect for you
47
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:35.459
to handle?
48
00:01:36.660 --> 00:01:38.739
Well, visualization can help you free
49
00:01:38.739 --> 00:01:40.879
your mind up from having lots of negative
50
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:42.620
thoughts. It can actually take you away
51
00:01:42.620 --> 00:01:44.280
from thinking about mechanics in your
52
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:46.599
golf swing. It's also a great way to get
53
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:48.019
yourself extremely focused.
54
00:01:48.859 --> 00:01:50.659
So I would strongly suggest, and you'll
55
00:01:50.659 --> 00:01:52.340
see a lot of tour players always start
56
00:01:52.340 --> 00:01:53.260
their golf
57
00:01:53.819 --> 00:01:56.459
shots from back behind the golf ball.
58
00:01:56.540 --> 00:01:58.319
You'll see them stand back here. This is
59
00:01:58.319 --> 00:01:59.439
the spot where they're starting to pick
60
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.040
their target. This is the spot where
61
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:02.760
they're starting to visualize the shot
62
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:04.239
they're starting to execute. It's
63
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:06.260
extremely important for the mental side
64
00:02:06.260 --> 00:02:08.599
of the game and it allows you to be way,
65
00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:10.280
way more focused when you're on the golf
66
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.219
course. So try it out. If you've been
67
00:02:12.219 --> 00:02:14.400
struggling with possibly thinking too
68
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.139
mechanically on the golf course, then
69
00:02:16.139 --> 00:02:18.539
visualize your shot, allow yourself to
70
00:02:18.539 --> 00:02:21.199
see yourself hitting the shot, seeing the
71
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.039
golf ball fly through the air, And then
72
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:24.479
go ahead and pick your target and stay
73
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:25.960
focused. And you'll see that you're going
74
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:27.539
to hit the golf ball closer to the hole
75
00:02:27.539 --> 00:02:28.800
much more consistently.
76
00:02:44.099 --> 00:02:45.620
Okay, reverse swing golfers, thanks again
77
00:02:45.620 --> 00:02:47.580
for tuning in to today's video. I really
78
00:02:47.580 --> 00:02:49.240
appreciate it. I also have a couple of
79
00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:50.759
great videos that we start talking about,
80
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:52.560
some more of the mental aspect of the
81
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:55.280
game. We did a video called developing
82
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:56.740
laser-like focus that just came out
83
00:02:56.740 --> 00:02:58.479
recently, and we also did a video called
84
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:00.740
the truss line. The Truss line is a great
85
00:03:00.740 --> 00:03:02.400
way to start to get yourself mentally
86
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:03.900
prepared for your golf. So if you haven't
87
00:03:03.900 --> 00:03:05.599
seen either one of those videos, Go ahead
88
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:07.259
and click on the Recommended Videos tab
89
00:03:07.259 --> 00:03:08.520
to the right-hand side of the video
90
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:10.360
player on the website. All those videos
91
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:11.840
will populate. All the Jason Day videos
92
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:12.719
that we've done in the past will
93
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:14.560
populate, and that way you can start
94
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:15.719
getting to work on playing some of your
95
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:16.099
best golf.

"I think he's come very close
to a golf swing model that appears to be ideal...It's a big muscle, motor-driven swing
that's repeatable...You don't have to be a super athlete."

"I started playing at 70 years old,
at the beginning I was scoring around 100 plus... Following the RST 5 Step System
my scores are in the 80 to 86 range. I am out-hitting guys in their 40's and 50's,
thanks to you and your system. My back or other muscles never ache, nor am I tired after
18 holes. I am so glad I found your technique and system."
-Hub Orr - Happy PREMIUM MEMBER of RotarySwing.com
"I can honestly say that Rotary Swing
has completely revolutionized the way I think about the golf swing...The website is
