Over the last few months, I have developed a major problem in my game. I tend to get frozen over the golf ball, and it feels like it takes FOREVER for me to be able to pull the trigger to start my swing. I have been taking lessons since mid November, and I believe they may be the cause of my issues.

I was doing this a bit a couple of years ago. I was freezing due to wanting to start the backswing perfectly, especially with the driver, and occasionally 6 irons or longer. Then my swing was out rhythm so I was spraying it all over the place. I was playing golf swing instead of playing golf, which is why my moniker is "leftrightleft".

Write a letter to Sergio and ask how he got over that paralysis at the US Open at Bethpage. THAT was painful to watch, even as you were screaming at him to hit the damn ball!!!! I'm not sure if maybe he was in a similar situation with working on a new swing or something.

A suggestion that will take away from your golf, but as @RayG says, don't do any mumbo jumbo. My solution for this is simple, only practice till you have the entire swing down as second nature. Once this happens, you won't need to worry about anything and all you will need to do, is stand over the ball and hit.

I have had this problem. Mine boiled down to ensuring my weight was on left side before I could feel I could take club back. I just couldn't recognize that that was holding me back subconsciously from starting the backswing. Damn that was painful.

I can relate. I get stuck trying to find my "trigger". I like to do a little knee-flex and exhale before the takeaway but sometimes I get stuck trying to make it feel right. When you're thinking about whether you have the right knee bend in your stance at address good things rarely happen after that.
