Show Notes

Darren May is the Director of Golf at The Grove XXIII and a sought after PGA TOUR Instructor. He joins us to dive into how professionals practice and prepare to get the most out of their play under pressure.

Darren breaks practice and training into three areas - Motor Pattern Training (MPT), Open Space Practice (Distance Control) and Full Process Practice (Proximity Training) - and explains how you should approach each element to best improve Technique, Skill, Trajectory and Distance Control.

In his explanation and lessons Darren refers to PGA TOUR examples in Justin Thomas and Keegan Bradley.  He also shares practice beliefs and mindsets from the legendary basketballer, Michael Jordan.

Darren also talks about important factors such as Wind, Mental Focus, Practice Frequency and Proximity Tolerances that influence productivity in practice.
