Sorry, the point is to know what you are. In that way you can follow a routine that maximizes your potential. In this way you can get into the zone and stay there better...........
I am not trying to make you a professional........that IS a ginormous jump
I am just trying to make you aware of things that disrupt your mind to body connection....
know thyself and play better golf.........this is just something folks are unaware of and has a large bearing on performance, at any level.
On another note Coach, your thoughts on muscle memory. I don't believe it exists. Muscles are activated by the brain, so it is in fact brain memory. Practice feeds the brain memory to duplicate movement, muscles just react to what they are told to do. thanks for any insight

There are alot of assumptions here to get that magical drop in strokes.
The biggest issue is that golfers are humans, not machines.
That is why a pro golfer can shoot a course record one day,
and par the next day. . .
Pros tend to follow routines religiously, but the results are seldom identical.
So simplifying hitting routine to a binary reason may be helpful to convince someone to adapt a certain change, but the hard wired human facts of each individual is immensely difficult to overcome without professional level of dedication.
In my very much younger days, I have played several of my favorite sports against actual professionals, not golf, and the difference between amateurs and professionals is immense and ginormous, don't kid yourself.
The problem with golf is that TV coverage of professionals makes the sport look very easy. . But to make something look that easy, requires thousands of hours of practice, and a physical advantage of certain skills over the average human. there are no short cuts such as left brain or right brain advantages. .
