It's an interesting one mate. I've actually found some good success listening to music when I'm on the range practicing. Usually something energetic but will be your personal preference. Taking away golf thoughts as dcb says as it's distracting you a bit. Transfers nicely to the course..so far. Lol. Oh and clearly with earphones, would get lynched just playing music at the range..😂

Jack Nicklaus always said he had a song playing in his head. He felt it helped his tempo, how fast or slow he walked or prepared for a shot. He joked, (or maybe not), that he had won a couple million dollars to Georgie Girl.

In my case, I generally try to feel more than think. I want to feel a certain position at the top of my swing where my grip with both hands feels secure. Then my first move down is sort of a conscious thought in real time.

I do joke though that I have a trap door under my chin. Whatever swing thoughts I might have fall out of that trap door as soon as it opens on my backswing. How else could you explain 3 perfect practice swings and then a shank, a chunk or a bladed shot?
