Ever wonder why it’s so hard to play golf? Trust me, it’s NOT your swing.
Most men play golf from the standpoint of their ego. This approach creates failure on the golf course. When a player allows their ego to be in charge, it will sabotage their game because often times their abilities don’t align with their expectations. This creates a frustrating and stressful experience. Which leads to poor performance and high scores.
My coaching programs are designed to get you past this
The reality is, you can have a lot more fun on the golf course—and score and play consistently. The secret to success can be found in my holistic three-part formula:
Strengthen your MIND – A strong and focused mind is a powerful tool.
Strengthen your BODY – A strong body allows for a solid platform, reduces aches and pains, and develops power.
Create BALANCE in your life – A balanced center both on and off the golf course creates positivity and enables you to experience a new sense of direction and excitement.
The Mind-Body-Balance approach will improve your golf game and also create results in your business, family and personal lives. Let me help you get to a place of health, wellness and self-belief where you are finding and following your true passion and purpose.
