1+1+1+1+1+1+1 = a golf swing

I'm supposed to practice these little swings and every time I add something else I'm supposed to do I forget something else.  Good back swing, why have I lost my posture?  Good contact, why is your wrist opening the club face?  Time to practice... how?  I've just come up with a good way to do this.  Same as rowing!  Focus tens.

Ten 1.25 swings....

Ten for back swing position at the hinge. 
Ten for grounded feet. 
Ten for hips swinging the club. 
Ten for only a 1.25 finish club butt pointed at my hip. 
Ten for wrist position. 
Ten for feeling the club change direction.  
Ten for good posture. 

Gonna see how this works for me.  It worked with rowing after all.  Quick hands away, sitting up, slow up the side... with any highly technical sport with repetitive movement I think this might be key!  For sure without a doubt when I keep my good posture and swing with my hips the rest becomes much easier.  Duh Amanda.

In other news I realized golf is 95% mental, 3% style and 2% knowing what you're doing.  Also, no thanks to the PGA store my clubs are the right length and the grips are the jam.  Alright, off to practice.  Ten for grounded feet in two.
