Make your own luck
Practice like you play

You’ve probably heard that famous saying: “The more I practice, the luckier I get.” But we’d take that even further to say that it’s not just how much you practice, but how you practice.

18-holes on the range

Set aside a practice session where you cycle through your clubs as you would if you were playing on course. Perhaps the first ‘hole’ is a par 4 where you hit driver followed by short iron. The next could be a ‘par 5’ where you hit driver, then fairway, then wedge. You get the idea.The condition and slope of the turf will affect the club you take and the type of swing you make.

A pre-shot routine helps to settle the nerves and can make a huge difference your consistency. But for it to work out on the course, you need to hardwire it into your muscle memory, and that means doing your pre-shot routine during practice as well.

How we create luck
