Mental Golf Coaching – Control Your Emotions

Mental Golf Coaching – Control Your Emotions The aim of mental golf coaching is to help you control your emotions. If you can control your emotions on the golf course then you are at a big advantage. In golf we have too much time to think – this can affect our emotional state I’m sure you’ve felt some or all of these emotions on the golf course:     

Frustration Elation Anger Joy Pain

And probably many more… The ‘problem’ with golf is that you have a lot of time to think about things between shots (which can make you even angrier) and your emotional state can have a huge effect on your golf swing. This is especially true when putting – the smallest change to your normal stroke can be the difference between holing a putt and missing a putt. Take control of your emotions – test yourself now! I have a quick test for you to prove that you can control your emotions. Simply SMILE for a few seconds and concentrate on how you feel. I’m not talking about a weedy little grimace – think of something that makes you really happy and REALLY SMILE. How do you feel? I’m sure you feel happy inside. The physical act of smiling releases endorphins that make you feel happy. In a similar way by thinking of the right things you can of course make yourself feel sad or worse still for golf – angry.
