To understand the Psychology of Golf, a player must first realize that thoughts can affect smoothness and cause bogey golf instead of winning golf.
This is what you need to understand what should be happening as you go through your pre-swing;
1/ Your eye sends picture to brain.
2/ Brain plans pattern of golf swing.
3/ Nerves control action of muscles.
4/ Muscles do the work.
The mind and body have a close relationship because both thoughts and muscles enter into every swing.
It is the control of both thoughts and muscles that helps a player to RELAX. This control can be obtained only by aquiring sound swinging movements that become habits. When the swing is a habit the mind and body will RELAX.
