Golf is really slow dancing. Do you have a song in your head to get your timing and rhythm in synch? I learned this from Bobby Jones. My song is Lady Marmalade. 🎶 Voulez vous coucher avec moi. 🎶

That’s a novel idea. I don’t currently have a song. My mantra when I feel I’m losing or have lost my tempo is simply “low and slow”. Start the backswing slowly, and keep the club head as low to the ground as possible. For me, it keeps the club on the proper plane and allows me to be in the proper position at the top of the swing, just before the downswing starts. The low and slow idea has fallen out of favour in recent years, but it’s still the one swing thought that helps me correct a swing where all the moving parts (hands, hips, shoulders, legs) are suddenly out of synch, either because of nerves, fatigue or loss of focus. I’ll have to think about what song might induce the swing rhythm I like best.
i use a couple(lately it’s been parts of Izzy’s Over the Rainbow and Fugue for Tinhorns), plus i sometimes semi-whistle. Picked it up reading about Fuzzy.
