Teaching: Slow for newbie, faster for exerienced

Having trouble with a handling move/sequence? Slow down! A great study should that beginner golfers did better when they took their time. I have my beginners do things at a walk. It gives them time to see and process everything. With my green dogs I do big sections of courses at a walk when I am teaching them responses to handling. The same study though showed that experienced golfers did better when they were rushed - and didn't think about it! Their moves had become automatic. Once you reach a certain point of training, it is better not to think about what you are doing, but "just do it". However, while gaining that competence, Try slowing down!
