If I were to ask you if your current golf game is as good as you would like it to be, what would you say? If your game is not up to the standards you feel you could achieve, what parts of your game are you working on to try to improve? When you really break it down, there are three main areas that you can work on to upgrade your game:

• Technical – Mastering the technical execution of the golf swing to produce an efficient and repeatable swing.
  
• Mental/Emotional – Having the focus and mental toughness to handle the highs and lows of golf.
  
• Physical – Ensuring that your body is properly conditioned to prevent injury and generate explosive power consistently. Your technical proficiency down the stretch also depends greatly on your conditioning levels.

For most people looking to improve their game, the first choice mentioned above, technical, is the most common game improvement strategy. Logic tells us that if we continue to practice, then we are bound to get better. Unfortunately, the average golfer’s idea of practicing is beating balls with no purpose in mind, not taking mental note of what is and is not working, wasting time and doing more harm to our game than good. I use to practice like that and found that it was very inefficient and unproductive.

What is Your Weakest Link?

For most golfers, the technical component of the golf swing is not their weakest link. Rather, it is the physical component that typically is weakest, which leads to an inconsistent swing, reduced power, rapidly decreasing energy levels, greater chance of injury, sore/painful joints and the inability to significantly improve their game.

Now let me ask you how your game would change if on every hole, after you hit your drive, I was to move your ball 30 yards further up the fairway towards the green? Would you start hitting those second shots closer to the pin, have more birdie opportunities and shoot some better scores? Well, it is completely within your power to take your current drives and add on another 30+ yards to where they are currently landing, and the Pure Power Program will help you do it.

Golf-specific conditioning truly is on the cutting edge of overall game improvement strategies. The physical component of the golf game is often ignored and hence, is the area for greatest and most immediate improvement for most golfers (3,4,13). It is also an excellent strategy to reduce the risk of lower back injuries associated with the golf swing (1,3,6,9,14).

The Pure Power Program truly is a total game improvement plan and will show you how easy it is to implement a golf-specific conditioning program. After reading this introductory book, you will realize that there are many ways to improve your game and that conditioning your body is a critical component in taking your game to the next level.
