GOLFERS LOCKER ROOM BULLETIN BOARD

Hi Mike,

"I really want to thank you for your Mental Keys. I started playing golf 18 months months ago. I had failed to break 90, especially during tournaments

"Now, I'm playing 80 regularly. It is incredible how the mind set and mind strength, especially making the right decisions under pressure can improve the game.

"I'm really enjoying all the info you provided to me."

Thank you again.

It makes my day when you email me your success stories or ask for my help after you have read my book and listened to my CD.

Don't be shy. It is always good to share positive feedback with your fellow golfers. Your generosity in sharing your experiences with others will help inspire them to keep polishing their wheel and help you sink an extra putt or two :-)

 

MENTAL TIP by MICHAEL ANTHONY

"Relaxed and Poised"

One of the keys to playing well is the ability to relax and play without stress and tension. Once you are relaxed, the key to playing at your best is your ability to become poised to enter the zone. This is quite an undertaking for the average golfer, but poise under pressure is what all great golfers have in common. This trance like state is what they love, and live for.

Unfortunately, many golfers find it hard to relax because they are too stressed out trying to play well and shoot a low score. Some golfers who can relax complain that it is hard to play well because they are too relaxed. That's because they don't take the next step and get poised before executing their shot.

Let's quickly review the four-step routine in "The Mental Keys"; 1) feedback response, 2) relax, 3) preparation and 4) instinctive execution. Once you make your shot whether it was good or bad, learn from the feedback. Since it's over and is now just history, take the time to clear your mind and relax before you prepare for your next shot.

Now that you are relaxed, it's time to prepare for the shot you're facing. First, you have to take in all of the inputs necessary for your mind to calculate the requirements to execute the shot at hand. Then, it is time to become poised so you can prepare your mind and body to execute while in the zone, which is when you play at your best.

So how do you become poised? The answer to this question is the key to excellence in golf and life. Once you are relaxed and have taken in the inputs, you focus intently on your target expecting to hit it without any concern about the outcome. While doing this, slow down and take your time. It's similar to putting yourself into a trance like state of mind. By making this practice the most important part of your preshot routine, you will start to get a feel for what is it like to be poised and ready to execute in the zone.

You will be in the present without any thoughts about the past or future. You will not have a care in the world except your total focus on your target. Your mind will have its full intention on hitting the target without being attached to achieving the outcome. Your brain's chemistry will be at its optimum and you will be poised to execute your shot instinctively.

It takes time and effort to train yourself to become poised. Once you master this art, your game will never be the same because you will fully realize that controlling your state of mind is the key to increasing your ability and probability of making the shot. (You will benefit greatly by rereading my tip "Trust Your Triangle" in my "Mental Golf Tips" book.)

So if you want to lower your score, forget about scoring. Focus on becoming relaxed and poised so your subconscious can do the work for you. This is what great players do. If you doubt this, just ask Tiger.

"To develop a great mental game, it's critical to realize that your mental state affects the chemistry of your brain which in turn affects your ability to perform. Then, it's just a matter of reprogramming your mind to optimize your chemistry so you can play in the zone."

"Keep Polishing Your Wheel"

My mission is to help you lower your score by increasing your awareness of how your mind processes information and providing you with insights on how to improve your mental game.

It is important for my new subscribers to get up to speed as quickly as possible. If you truly desire to lower your score, read my book and listen to my CD (part one) before and (part two) after you play as well as read my mental tip newsletters.

Once you have done your homework, you will have laid the foundation to have one of the best mental games around. The next step is to continue to work on improving your mental game (polish your wheel) until these insights become an instinctive part of your mental makeup.

My advice to my old subscribers is to keep polishing your wheel if you want your scores to continue to fall. Since my mental tips are designed to enhance and reinforce your understanding of "The Mental Keys," keep reading them as well as rereading my book from time to time.

Some of my newsletters contain new tips and others repeat past tips to refresh your tape. If you keep polishing your wheel, your scores will continue to fall. I guarantee it!

Once in awhile, I send out a Golf Announcement to inform you of other golf products that will help you to polish your wheel. Please take a serious look at them.

Play well and keep polishing your wheel,

Michael Anthony

P.S. Once you read this section "Keep Polishing Your Wheel" several times, you can skip it in future newsletters. After several repetitions, just seeing the words "Keep Polishing Your Wheel" will automatically remind you to keep working on improving your mental game.
