What causes you to have a bad streak of golf shots  … and what can you do to flip the script to get on a good streak more easily?

Having a bad streak of golf shots is deflating. One miss leads to another, and suddenly it feels impossible to hit a ball where you want it to go!

Yet, a good streak of shots is energizing … it fuels you. You gain the feeling as if you ‘got it’ … where everything feels effortless, as if you’ve cracked the code for achieving consistency

Yet, after a bad shot or two … doubt starts overcoming confidence. Anxiety stirs your head with a tornado of swing thoughts and your ability to hit a golf ball erodes along with your fleeing optimism

Most Golfers then go into defense mode –

• ‘I must be lifting and need to keep my eye on the ball’
• ‘My grip might be too weak?’
• ‘Am I swing from out to in again?’
• Or whatever your defense mode looks like

And yet, playing golf defending against hitting a bad shot only exacerbates and prolongs your bad streak of swings

Yet, the Golfers who stay on their good streaks for longer periods  … aren’t the ones with these thoughts (or much thoughts at all). They’re the ones who approach the ball with a repeatable routine that puts them into the desired ‘no think zone’ … which better aligns your mind and body to work together each swing

Because a bad shot doesn’t mean your swing mechanics are suddenly broken. It means your process of preparing and hitting the shot has been distracted by your brain … and thus, a disruption from having fluidity in your swing

If you go on bad streaks of hitting the golf ball … you don’t need more technical swing thoughts … you need more clearness in your head

This is why the best Golfers develop and trust a system that simplifies their approach rather than adding layers of swing complexity. When your routine keeps your mind and body working together … doubt and tension will disappear and your swing becomes something you can rely on, swing after swing

See the shot, feel the shot, do the shot … learning this process cuts out the doubt and eliminates the tension of playing in a defensive strategy (of not hitting a bad shot into the water that’s waiting perilously between you and the green)

Get your game on more good streaks by using what the LPGA and PGA Tour players use in their game … a process that doesn’t take exceptional athletic skill to use. A simple process that’s easy to repeat, while also being the key to staying in control of your golf game, emotions and swing
