Your Pre-Shot Routine

You need a pre-shot routine that you can rely on. In this eight-lesson video course, Legends Tour player, Cindy Miller shares everything in her tournament hardened pre-shot routine.

Introduction to the Pre-Shot Routine

Cindy Miller introduces her Pre-Shot Routine video lessons where you will learn everything you need to learn to plan, prepare and execute the best possible shot.

Planning Your Shot

First, plan your shot and most importantly, work out the playable yardage (including the wind).

Are You Left or Right Eye Dominant?

This is something you need to know before you set up for your shot because unless you know which is your dominant eye you will never be able to line up with the target properly.

The Truth About the Lie

The lie of the ball (how it is sitting on the ground) will often determine club selection.

Allow for the Temperature

Every 10-degree drop in the temperature means you’ll need to play one club longer than normal. Don’t forget to factor in the weather conditions.

Visualize Your Shot

Picture the shot in your mind because perfect visualization will produce the shot you are looking for.

Create Your Own Focus Trigger

PGA Tour player, Jason Day closes his eyes before he plays a shot. He’s not napping. Now you need to create your own focus trigger to switch from analytic/planning to creative/action before you swing the club.

It’s Time to Produce the Shot

All the work you’ve done is ready to pay off. You’ve planned for the shot and prepared for the shot. Now it’s time to produce the shot.
