About this episode

What We Covered Golf exposes your inner dialogue Jim explains why your brain is louder than your driver — and how to quiet it. One shot at a time (seriously) Scorecards drag you into the past and future. Jim says stay here, now, with this shot. Tension kills swings A tight mind creates a tight body. We talk breathing, relaxing focus, and resetting your system. Recovery > perfection Jeff’s “spectator technique” helps you detach from bad shots instead of spiraling. The orchestra of negativity Too many swing thoughts = mental noise. Jim shows how to become your own “internal master.” Identity vs. score You are not your number. Jim breaks down how to separate self-worth from performance. Golf as life in 18 chapters Every hole is a new challenge — and a new chance to respond instead of react. Why You’ll Love This Episode If you’ve ever walked off a green muttering to yourself, gripping the club like it owes you money, or predicting your doom based on the first three holes… this episode is your antidote. Jim gives you tools you can use today, and we add the usual Golf Guys flavor: honesty, humor, and a little self‑deprecation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
