Guilt, Goals, and Greens: How Off-the-Course Emotion May Be Sabotaging Your Swing (and what to do about it)
Episode 3
Thursday, 2 May, 2024
“If you shot a 65 [on 9 holes] and I’m a much better golfer, why the f&ck would I listen to you?” If you’re here for swing technique and to discuss the various equipment options and the latest golf tech available, this isn’t the show for you. In today’s episode, I answer that question directly, update you on a frustrating (putting it kindly) practice round experience I had, and give you the details behind my second 9 holes. You’ll meet my unexpected playing partner, Derek, and likely see a major part of yourself in how he introduced himself and talked about his golf game. Additionally, I’ll dig deep into an often unexplored and shied-away aspect of the game that’s inhibiting your swing (and ability to shoot low scores): your off-the-course emotional management. If you have difficulty separating what’s going on at work or at home from the course, this episode will serve as a powerful wake-up of awareness that helps you see and understand just how problematic things may be.
