We’re going to be talking about my own personal pre-shot routine and how it can hopefully help you dial in your pre-shot routine. I’m confident you’re going to leave this episode with a better understanding of what a pre-shout routine is for, and the different components that most experts do that you should probably be doing to in order for you to play better.

When the pressure is at its highest, how do you handle that pressure? How do you talk to yourself about that pressure? What is your relationship with pressure?
In this episode, we tackle all of those questions. You should leave this episode with a very practical way to handle pressure the next time you're in that big moment.

We have special guest Gary Waters on today. We go deep on this one. We discuss perfectionism, self-imposed pressure, not believing you're good enough, self-talk, moving on from your past, being more unemotional about results, letting the future be what it will be, caring without worrying, and healthy goal setting.
Hope you enjoy!

On this episode we’re going to be talking about pressure, stress, our brain's role in helping us survive threatening situations, how to close out a good round, and some real practical mental strategies for being present and free while you play.
You're going to learn how to face your struggles, rather than hiding from them.
We’re going to use this concept to help you on a bigger picture of dealing with obstacles and setbacks in your own golf pursuit, but this will also apply to helping you deal with pressure during a round.

In this episode of The Mental Golf Show, we have Paul Salter, a mindset coach and hypnotherapist for golfers. We discuss how hypnotherapy has a misconstrued reputation, why Paul believes it can speed up the mental improvement and performance of golfers.
We also discuss the amateur golfer’s common diet mistakes, how to get premium fuel for your body, how ‘scarcity mentality’ applies to golf and can affect your game, how long golf improvement should take, how nonjudgmental curiosity can help us change the internal rules we’ve created, what’s at the heart of fear of failure, how fear of getting kicked out of the group can fuel playing scared, and the power of clear visualization, and specifically clear visualization of mistakes.

On this episode I have Andy Walker and Steve Hinks from The Missing Links Golf Show podcast. We discuss:
Time management
Goal setting
Fatherhood
Work/life/golf balance
Strategic planning
Practical tips to get the most out of your time
How to practice and play more golf
And much more.
My hope for this episode is that you can learn along with me how to get a better hold of your time and set goals and be more intentional with your life. I certainly learned a lot about those things from talking to Andy and Steve.
