Confessions of a Psychopath Practicer
‘If it’s technically perfect, there’s not a situation it won’t fail in’
How this one piece of advise from a coach turned Simon into a self confessed psychopath practicer for 15 years.
'The more knowledgeable I became on the golf swing, the more I understood about movements on the body, ground reaction forces… the more of a psychopath I became in practice.'
Simon Gabbitas comes on today in the first attempt at looking at Pro's practice history.
Simon is a coach at Hagley Golf Club, however has been a prolific winner in the past in county and regional PGA events.
Topics covered:
How Simon's beliefs of practice shaped him into a Psychopath Practicer. Overuse of camera and his tripod. When Simon was playing his best it was task based, more linked with the game. Some of the Practice exercises he did when Simon has played his best.Simon Gabbitas contact details:
