Do
your confidence and consistency disappear on competition day?
Do
you lose concentration after a bad shot, and it affects your score?
Are
you a better golfer than your current results show?
Don't worry! Most
golfers go through these problems, which are perfectly natural and just
a reaction to the pressure you're under on the day. The
good news is that these can all be overcome - because if your mind can
create these problems, it can just as easily solve
them as well.
It's famous now
how Earl Woods used to purposely drop his clubs, cough, or sneeze at
the very moment that his son Tiger was about to hit his shot - and this
was done purely to develop his mental strength so that he would eventually
become impervious to these distractions in later years - which he did.
So Tiger was primed as a child to learn mental strength, while most
of us 'mortals' have to learn it manually in order to extract the utmost
from their game.
Bringing in some mental training
techniques are one of the best ways to overcome problems, take your
game to the next level, and lower your handicap even without changing
a shot in your repetoire.
This means simply training your mind to
deal more effectively with the pressure, while at the same time, programming
it for the result you want, rather than the results you are getting
- yes, just like a computer. (In fact, the very first computer
ever invented was modelled on the human mind - and we can use it very
much the same way as our PC)..
Your mind controls your body -
not the other way around, which means most problems in golf are due
to the mind simply being un-trained to give the body the correct
instructions it needs to perform the way you want.
Self-sabotage is also a common problem in golf, as the pressure
of competition often brings out problems which may not exist
in practice. Basically your mind is either working for
you, or against you, just depending upon how it is "programmed" to perform,
especially under pressure.
Most golfers can dramatically improve their scores using mental
training techiques, which consist of using particular strategies on
the course during the heat of competition (such as using visualization,
self talk, and getting into the optimum mental state they call 'The
Zone' - more on that later), whilst also using some various methods
off the course as well.
Consistency, concentration and confidence
are all best achieved through a regular mental training program, which
only takes about 10 minutes of your time off the course, and
used at strategic times on the course - usually at the times when you
are under the most pressure. These are some of the benefits of mental
training:
Common
Golf Problems Which Can
Be Overcome With Mental Training
Do you experience
any of these?
- 1st tee nerves / lack
of belief in yourself
- Slumps in form
- Regularly recurring problems
on the course
- Playing
a much worse, or better, back nine
- Concentration and technical problems
- Practicing hard but getting no
payback
- Doubts, fears, worries and anxiety
- Inconsistency in competition
- Great in practice, but not performing
in competition
- Overly worrying about the "obstacles"
such as the bunkers and trees
- Injuries or illness occurring
just before competitions
These are classic situations that
mental training routinely deals with and can overcome usually
without too much problem, usually in much quicker time than
it took to develop the problem in the first place.
Apart from overcoming problems, mental training is also fabulous
for simply taking your game to the next level, and achieving
a powerful, serene mindset during your game. It
is quite evident when you are watching a golfer who is mentally
tough - they often display some of these characteristics:
Classic
Signs Of Mental Training

without practicing any harder

Discover
Your Mental Golfing 'Zone'
Apart from helping you overcome
problems, mental training can help you reach the absolute
peak of your capabilities. The mental state known as 'the
zone' produces these all-time best performances - where your
swing feels flowing, easy and effortless, and you feel
you simply cannot do a thing wrong.
This
is the mental state which produces super-human performances
in all sports, including on the golf course. Any golfer who
is in this state is virtually unbeatable at their respective
level of competition - and at the elite level, you often witness
course records being well and truly smashed.
A golfer
who is in the zone experiences an unusual feeling of
effortless power, guile and control in their shots - and the
strange part about this is that the performance does not feel
as if it is being controlled by the actual golfer!
In fact, they often report feeling as if they weren't responsible
for the shots at all - almost as if their body was being guided
and directed by a more powerful force (and this is exactly what
is happening).
Almost
every golfer at some stage in their career has experienced this
feeling to some extent, and then wondered afterwards "how
did I do that?" This is the mystery that surrounds the
zone - why does it appear so fleetingly, and then disappear
just as quickly as it came? And most of all - why can't we access
it all the time?
What is
the powerful force which is guiding the body during this period?
The answer is the sleeping giant that resides inside all human
beings - the subconscious mind, the source of all bodily movement
which also stores all past golfing memories and experience.
When a golfer
is 'zoning', their conscious mind becomes quiet (the normally
busy, chattering mind we use all the time), and this allows
their more powerful subconscious to run their performance on
'automatic pilot', in the way a computer runs software.
This allows
their strokes to flow much easier, effortlessly accessing power
and control in a way that could never be matched by conscious
thought. This means that when you are in the zone, you
have virtually no thought going through your mind whatsoever,
your body is just playing on automatic-pilot, powered directly
by your subconscious mind.
This is
not to say that your body is playing without instruction, on
the contrary, it is simply getting its instructions from a more
powerful and reliable source. The
Zone is brought about by learning to allow your powerful subconscious
to do your hitting for you, rather than allowing the busy, chattering
mind to take charge, which it so often it does.
The good news is that most players
have no idea how to get into this mental state,
which creates a secret weapon for you over your competitors!
So
how do we get into the zone? The
fact is, apart from a few particular elements which are common
for everyone, it seems that all golfers have their own individual
way of getting into the Zone, and the golfer who understands
and knows themselves best is the one who discovers how
to access the Zone more often, and put in a strong performance
almost every time they play.
The zone is a very powerful state, and can help you reach beyond
your limitations to achievements you may have never realized
were possible.
So
where is your mind
currently directing you? Your recent results in competition
will give you the answer every time. Regardless, mental
toughness can improve your results and get you into the winners
circle more often - even without changing a single stroke
in your game.

Troubleshooting and 'Damage Control' During Your Round
Some
of the toughest times for a golfer (which most affect their
scores) are the times where they have to cope with their own
negative thoughts and emotions directly after hitting
a bad shot - as well as stemming their nerves on the first tee,
or when their confidence deserts them whilst preparing to hit
over water or bunkers.
This
is where positive self talk and affirmations
are a very important component to bring in, to combat the bombardment
of negative thoughts which can flow from the conscious mind
during these stressful times. These methods 'contain the
fallout' from a bad shot so that it doesn't spill over
into the rest of your round, effectively controlling the negative
emotions and channelling them positively into the following
shots and holes.
However,
as well as effectively dealing with overcoming mindset and concentration
problems, it's also essential to ensure your mind is programmed
positively to achieve what you truly desire on the
golf course.
Visualization,
and The One Essential Component Which Most Golfers Cannot Achieve
Visualization,
combined with hypnosis, is the most powerful method available
for programming yourself for success on the golf course,
as well as for transforming chronic bad habits into
positive new ones. For optimum results, it's best to use
a combination of these techniques both on,
and also off, the course.
Using
visualization firstly at home helps to program the
optimum performance (and the shots that you wish to achieve)
into your subconscious, whilst using the method on the
course allows you to tap into that very mental program
you created at home, while you are getting ready to play a shot.
The
problem is that, for the vital mental work that needs to be
done at home, a common problem for most golfers is that its
essential ingredient is to quieten your thoughts and
relax your mind to a specific level - which is
crucial while you are visualizing (or "running movies
through your mind" as Jack NIcklaus once put it), and very
few people seem to be able to do this effectively. This
occurs mainly because:
- their
mind simply won't quieten down, or:
- they
don't know exactly what to visualize, or for how
long, etc.
These
were (and still are) common problems for most golfers, and I
encountered the same problem - as when golfers came to me for
mental training, I would show them exactly what to do, but found
that they would go home and struggle with the exercise for the
weeks ahead - and this meant that their improvement was inconsistent
at best. Finally, however, I came up with an answer to
these visualization problems - and from that point onward, the
results became powerful and consistent for each person who I
consulted to.
As
most golfers mainly seemed to struggle with being able to relax
properly, I created an audio exercise which, apart from
outlining the complete step-by-step mental training routine
for both on and off the course, contained a a powerful visualization
exercise with hypnotic suggestions which I encouraged the golfers
to use as regularly as possible, to bring about positive and
automatic mental changes.
The
visualization exercise relaxed the golfer down to the perfect
level of relaxation, before repeating several minutes of powerful
hypnotic suggestions to their subconscious mind, before mentally
guiding them step-by-step through the golfing visualization
- imagining themselves playing the perfect round of golf.
As
soon as I brought this new tool into my work, it made the world
of difference - because teaching someone how to visualize
is far more difficult (in terms of ensuring they are doing it
properly) rather than being able to guide them through the entire
process yourself, which is exactly what the visualization did
for me.
Consequently,
I now have far fewer consultations - as most people find the
step-by-step program easier to do from home rather than try
to find the time to talk to me in a consultation.
The
visualization exercise covers virtually every typical golf situation,
before returning the listerner back to the normal awakened state
all in around 15 minutes. The exercise is easily tailored
by the listener to work own their own particular needs (eg.
for overcoming 1st tee nerves), and the exercise has a cumulative
effect where it increases in effectiveness the longer
you use it.
Effective
visualization - on and off the course, is the answer to overcoming
most golfer's problems and reaching the next level of improvement,
though the other techniques mentioned in the program ensure
that negative thoughts, emotions and doubts do not get in the
way during the round.
