Developing Powerful Mental Skills and Products to Enhance Your Game
Elite golfers consider mental toughness and the ability to control their mind
as an important aspect of their game day preparation and coaching program.
These players have had access to golf sport psychologists and consult with them
regularly. Now you too can utilize these same psychological coaching principles,
learn to achieve optimal peak performance states and begin to play the best golf
of your life.
Why is the Mental Game so Important?
Many players can perform well on the practice tee and have developed a sound swing.
Indeed learning how to swing properly and gaining an understanding of the nuances
of course management is a prerequisite for becoming a good golfer. However, once
the basic swing has been mastered the next step is to learn how to manage the thoughts
and emotions that inevitably arise during play. The best golfers in the world have
learned to maintain emotional equilibrium on the course and channel energy productively.
Research demonstrates that anger, anxiety, embarrassment, and fear of failure, can and
does combine to create brain states that trigger high emotional arousal within the player.
When this happens the fight or flight response is activated and the brain secretes undesirable
neurotransmitter substances like nor-epinephrine, which can lead to the release of adrenalin
into the muscles. When this arousal occurs, physiological changes occur such as an increase
in: heart rate, blood pressure, pulse and blood lactate levels. Blood lactate levels influence
muscle tension and that in turn affects the flexibility of the player and ultimately the swing
itself. The fight or flight response can also reduce the flow of blood to the hands and other
extremities contributing to a subsequent loss of feel for the club. This especially affects
putting, even with great golfers, and is often seen in late Sunday afternoon pro tournaments.
The secret to managing your game, then, comes down to effectively managing your thoughts and
inner dialogue in order to cope with the inevitable frustrations and disappointments involved
in golf.
