Why a pre-shot routine is so important. ✅ 1. Builds consistency. A repeatable routine helps you set up the same way every time. ✅ 2. Calms nerves and focuses the mind A good pre-shot routine helps block out distractions (like the last bad shot or water down the right side) and puts you in the present moment. It’s like a mental reset button. ✅ 3. Creates rhythm and tempo Rushing a shot or standing over the ball too long can ruin tempo. A routine creates a natural flow, so your swing feels smooth
