Is pausing at the top of the backswing a game changer for your golf swing?

I try to focus on breathing and enjoying the game. Golf is supposed to be fun, right? Let’s not forget that!

Exactly! Sometimes I remind myself to just laugh at my mistakes. Any funny moments with the pause?

Once, I paused so long that the group behind me started cheering! Now I set a friendly wager on who can pause the longest before the swing. Keeps it lively!

Haha, that’s hilarious! But it really does help to bring a playful attitude to practice. Anyone have a different perspective on pausing?

I think it’s a bit overrated. Sure, it works for some, but for many, it can create inconsistency. Better to find what genuinely works for your individual swing.

That’s fair! Everyone’s swing is unique, and what works for one doesn’t work for all. Listening to your body is key.
