I have posted along these lines before but I believe it may be helpful to some in the consistency department. Behaviour is driven by sub-conscious desire...or true intent. What do you really want out of this ball of wax? The golf stroke is a vehicle to a greater end, namely lower golf scores. Even the best learned to "win ugly" Nobody likes "ugly." I think the goal of becoming a ball-striking savant is a pyrrhic victory at best.Not to raise the eyebrows of our northern neighbors but there were X amount of players that could probably have schooled Moe Norman out there where it counts (just not on the days his was setting one of his umpteen course records!)
Homer seemed to be big on the separate identities thing and gave us great advice on how to proceed.
Learn the alignments...make the motion indoors...always look, look looking...take the motion to the range and manufacture shots as though you were playing golf...take your shots to the course...add the numbers and enjoy...rinse and repeat.
I am aghast at how many seasoned players cannot aim within 30 years of their target! To me that is a result of being mechanics-minded on the range. I think when the lines between the three stages become blurred then consistency suffers!
