About this listen

This is one of the many paradoxes of golf. The control we want to get refers to consistent accuracy, control over where the ball will go. The control we have to give up is the kind we exercise when we “steer” a shot. Steering is an expression of the thinking mind trying to control the swing to make sure we get the results we want. Paradoxically, the results we get usually range from not very good to terrible. To get control that leads to consistent accuracy, you have to give up that conscious, intentional type of control: your thinking mind trying to direct your muscles.
