Uncovering Mental Shanks That Impact Your Golf Game
In this episode,Kathy offers invaluable insights into the concept of 'mental shanks'—negative thoughts that sidetrack us both on and off the golf course.
She explains how these thoughts are akin to shanking a golf ball; they move us sideways or backward rather than forward.
Kathy emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing these mental shanks to prevent them from becoming detrimental habits.
Through intentionality and awareness, golfers can pivot away from unhelpful thoughts to improve both their mental and golf game.
Listeners are encouraged to identify and minimize their mental shanks to create better outcomes in their lives. Listen in and discover the thoughts that you do not want to rehearse and practice so that you can move forward with your golf.
