The Mental Game of Golf: Pre-Shot Routine and Post-Shot Analysis

with Ted Gleason,
Head Men's Coach, Southern Methodist University, Certified Golf Psychology Instructor

Take your mental game to the course! Ted Gleason, Golfweek's District VI Coach of the Year for 2001, shows you how to apply your mental game on the course. Gleason reveals three phases of the mental pre-shot routine that will keep you focused on each individual shot. This kind of focus keeps your mind off your last shot, your next shot, the weather conditions, spectators, and other distractions golfers face. In his post-shot analysis, Gleason walks you through a valuable mental checklist to evaluate your shot and help you set goals for your next shot. Putting has it's own set of mental challenges, so Gleason highlights the differences in setting up for a putt versus a full swing.
