062 Mastering The Mental Side Of Golf

In my conversation today with talented PGA Golf Professional and Regional England Golf Coach, JJ Vallely, we discuss if it is possible to master the mental side of golf.  As you'll learn and already likely know this is a big challenge due to the unique nature of golf and the skills needed to do well! We do however give it our best shot to arm you with some useful tools and ideas to take away so that you can become the best golfer you can be.  Or if you're a coach or interested in the mental side of golf, we hope to have given you some things to consider.   Key Learning Points: Golf is a very challenging sport that requires people to be very persistent over a long period, and not put off by setbacks and bumps in the road. On the golf course, the mentally tough golfer is someone who is in control of their thoughts, can keep their composure when things aren't going to plan, who never gives in and is able to grind out a score. "It's very easy to get confused with this game, the margins of error are very small and you don't need to be far out to lose confidence in a hurry." It's about awareness, it's important to know the in's and out's of your own game. Often, young golfers are now fit, flexible and strong, but their golfing mind hasn't developed and then older players have a better golfing brain but their bodies don't work how they'd like it to.    Asking good questions is a very important skill.   Connect with John James Vallely Facebook Instagram Twitter   Connect with David Charlton Accelerator Course: Achieving Your Goals Faster Download THE FOCUSED ATHLETE CHECKLIST Join David @ The Sports Psychology Hub Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn   To Listen to the Full Podcast Episodes Podcast Ep013: Karl Morris - How to Stay Present like a Major Champion Podcast Ep017: Gio Valiante - How to Play Fearless Golf Podcast Ep047: David Charlton – Mental Game Tips for Putting    For More Resources so You Can Shoot Lower Scores on The Golf Course Golfers Mental Scorecard Golf Psychology FAQs Golf Blogs Golf Podcasts   Today's Podcast Sponsor Kymira Sport
