Do you have trouble taking your pre-round warm-up to the golf course and get nervous? In this week’s golf psychology session, mental game of golf expert and author of The Mental Game of Golf, Dr. Cohn, responds to a question from Zack who had this to say about his game:
“I get nervous and can’t take preround practice to the first tee. I have trouble swinging freely on the course–like I do on the range. And then I have very tentative shots. What’s going on with me?”
COHN: I’m gonna start saying, its not a pre-round practice, I think a lot of golfers get that wrong. It’s a pre-round warm-up. I don’t want you practicing your golf swing in your warm-up… You have to understand what is the ultimate fear that’s causing you nervous at the start of the round…
Listen to the podcast now to learn what Dr. Cohn has to say about addressing players fear and building self trust.
