Don’t Believe Any Golf Instructor or Coach

Quite often, I hear from my golfer clients that they are so confused by the conflicting swing advice…and sometimes conflicting mental game advice…that they are given by instructors and coaches.

One says to swing more around the body while another says you need to bring it more upright.

One mental coach says you need to play against par, and not your opponents while another says that you play for the love of the game (me).

Who do you believe? What to incorporate?

Well, I just made a short video to address this.
Click on the video below and let me know what you think in the comments below that.

Don’t Trust Any Golf Guru!
Listen, as usual. I’m going to be controversial in this video. Why is it that we think that if a golf instructor has worked with a touring pro, or has been a touring pro himself (or herself) that that makes them a good golf instructor for you?

Let me tell you right here that what makes a good instructor for YOU has nothing to do with any of that! NOTHING.

The best golf instructors are the ones that flex to what’s best FOR YOU! They don’t try to fit round pegs into square holes. EVERY GOLFER IS DIFFERENT and cookie cutter swing methods do not work for everyone.
That’s the big problem with getting golf instruction online. You can’t do much of a personal approach when you’re selling generic information.

What you’re really looking for is results and you don’t know in advance whether or not some golf advice is going to work for us, right?. So we subconsciously look for clues that give us the confidence that we might get those results for the time and money we spend.

We tend to believe that since this guy was voted best golf teacher of the year well then maybe that increases the chances that what they have to teach will work for me. But there is NO DIRECT CORRELATION between those 2 facts.

So then, who is the best golf instructor for you then? YOU!

Nobody knows you as well as YOU do. I’m here to tell you, today…do NOT trust any golf instruction out there as gospel. Including mine!

What you want to do, then, is to take in golf instruction, from me, or anyone else and make decisions as to what you think will work for you…commit to it…AND IGNORE THE REST.

I don’t want you to blindly follow any of my advice. I want you to listen to the logic of what I or anyone else is teaching and test it with what you know about yourself. I can’t tell you how many golfers I’ve talked to who have studied or worked with big name teachers and gotten ZERO results…and then they blame themselves for it and feel ashamed to even admit it while the big name teacher goes around spouting tour names…blah blah blah

TRUST YOURSELF and your intelligence. Be a skeptic and don’t be one of the sheople who idolize the golf media’s pets.

I’m Craig Sigl and your swing is good enough to go low, right now.

    Craig,
    Despite many lessons I have a great practice swing but when I go to hit the ball more often or not I top ball or hit it thin . Everybody I play with says I have a great practice swing . At this point I think it is mental . Whatever it is it is soooo frustrating to do the same thing . Do have any advice ?
