00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.680
This game is PGA benchmarks so a lot of golfers get really frustrated when

2
00:00:06.680 --> 00:00:11.520
their perspectives are off or when they're not really living up to what their

3
00:00:11.520 --> 00:00:15.920
standards think that they should be. So here I've got my 7 iron so my 7 iron is

4
00:00:15.920 --> 00:00:21.360
going to be somewhere around 165. If we were to look at the 150 to 175 zone for

5
00:00:21.360 --> 00:00:25.680
PGA Tour the average distance from the hole is going to be somewhere around 28

6
00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:30.600
feet. I'll put a bunch of the other benchmarks that you can use in the

7
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:34.680
notes section but what I would do is on the range I'm gonna pick a target and

8
00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:40.800
I'm gonna pick kind of goal posts that would give me about a 28 foot kind of

9
00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:45.400
window or target. So if I get it in the benchmark I'm gonna give myself a score

10
00:00:45.400 --> 00:00:48.760
of plus one if I get it outside the benchmark I'm gonna give myself a score

11
00:00:48.760 --> 00:00:53.760
of minus one. So this is a great way to start painting realistic perspectives

12
00:00:53.760 --> 00:00:58.800
and to figure out what areas of the game I'm actually struggling with so that I

13
00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:02.250
can put a little bit more attention there. So I find that it helps create a

14
00:01:02.250 --> 00:01:02.320
little

15
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.880
bit more patience. Patience is gonna keep you a little bit more calm and when

16
00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:10.680
you're calm you're gonna be more likely to hold up under pressure and be able

17
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:10.840
to

18
00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:14.840
perform that fluid swing that you're trying to train.
