Today on the show we have former PGA Tour player Gary Christian who has had a remarkable career as a player, broadcaster and now author of a wonderful book called ‘Beat the golf course not yourself’ During out time together Gary went into some phenomenal detail about how his career as a player turned around when he seriously began to work on and explore the mental game It is inspirational how he explored for him key areas such as visualisation and how this gave him the capacity to get the very best out of his obvious talent The conversation very much looks at how when you have developed some skills how you can then access those skills on the course itself As a result of working on his mental game Gary became one of the oldest rookies in PGA Tour history Truly inspirational for us all As Gary says most golfers do not have the time to make major swing changes but they COULD explore the mental game to get the very best from their experience Enjoy the show.

On today’s show we have a special coach in the shape of Denmark’s Andreas Kali who has overseen the development of numerous top players in Denmark. Due to his incredible results with so many players he has become one of the hottest coaches in golf We had a really wonderful conversation about the philosophy behind the success he has been getting in Denmark In particular about the development of the players a people not just golfers The need to create an environment of fun and learning in practice. Not just fun in the conventional sense but the fun of being REALLY engaged in the training you are doing Andreas talked about some of the setback he encountered as a player and how he wants to help his own players short circuit that learning He talked about the THREE CORE elements that drive all of his lessons and the training environments Does this get the ball CLOSER to the target Does this PREVENT injury Does this enhance the LOVE of the game If your coaching is not addressing those needs then is it REALLY making a difference? We talked about LOW POINT in the swing and how this simple focus of attention can make such a huge difference to most golfers enjoyment of the game but also their performance Keeping players in the game for longer Not everyone is going to be a champion but can we keep players engaged in a way that doesn’t threaten their identity as a human being You will find this conversation fascinating and you will begin to see why Andreas has been so incredibly successful with so many young players To find out more about Andreas Kali go to https://andreaskaligolf.com/ To start your FREE Mind Caddie 7 day trial go to https://www.mindcaddie.golf/ To book your Mind Caddie workshop at your club go to www.themindfactor.com To book your place on the ‘Lost Art of Golf’ school get in touch at www.themindfactor.com OFFICIAL BRAND AMBASSADOR : Fenix Apparel and Accessories Co.
