How it works
Swing thoughts can turn a bad round into a good one. Swing thoughts build consistency. Swing thoughts can change your swing. The SwingThoughts Wristband is an ingenious yet simple device that forces the player to focus on the key swing thoughts he/she has decided will help them execute better shots. Every player is different and what works for one, might not work for another. One thing is for sure, it is of up most importance that the mind is not overcrowded with too many mechanical thoughts when preparing and executing the golf swing. Too many thoughts leads to tension which can lend itself to a poor shot. When the mind focuses on just one or two ideas, the goal is clear and the body can be freed up to do what it needs to do, swing freely and uninhibited.

While practicing on the driving range, use your Swing Thoughts to jot down quick notes pertaining to what you swing dynamics you are working on. Maybe your trying to cure a slice and need to concentrate on bringing the club back on the inside and swinging out. A quick note of "inside to out" will key you in on what you need your body to do. As your swing changes throughout the sessions your swing thoughts will change also. Easily erase the previous thoughts and jot down your new ones. Focusing on just the right things will save you much wasted time and wasted strokes.
The use for SwingThoughts on the course differs slightly from the range. On the range you are trying to groove your swing and build up muscle memory. On the course, you want that muscle memory to shine through and allow your body to do what it was trained to do. The swing thoughts you might jot down before a round could be based on your warm up session. How was your swing feeling? What thought helped you make a better swing? The "course" swing thought should be simple and deal more with the mental then the physical aspect.

How often have you heard golf commentators talk about positive swing thoughts and “Being Positive” or read about a player who is working on their "Tempo", "Rhythm" or "Timing", "Picking a Target" or heard of sports psychologists talking about "Visualizing", or "Relaxing"? Well, unless you have been living under a rock, the answer would be all the time. This is not a surprise because this is what all the professionals do. They are focused and have techniques to set their thoughts to the important things that trigger their good performances.
Have you ever wondered why some tour pro's have initials written on their gloves or wrists? Did you know that most tour pro's yardage books contain more then just yardages? Those initials and words are actually their key swing thoughts. This technology is tried and true by professional golfers world round. We just make it fashionable and practical for the every day golfer that is concerned with improving on an often overlooked, yet critically important, aspect of their golf game. The mental focus. Start thinking like the pro's and watch your scores drop.
