How Distance Chasing Sabotages Your Golf Swing and Confidence
from Think Above Par | Your Mental Caddy for Golf Mindset & Performance · host Kathy Hart Wood
You ever play with someone who hits it farther and suddenly your swing disappears? Yep, we’re talking about the sneaky mind game of chasing distance. In this episode, I’m breaking down why trying to keep up off the tee messes with your tempo, trashes your confidence, and takes you completely out of your own game. I’ll share a few Pro-Am stories (spoiler: fragile male egos ahead), and help you spot when your brain starts spiraling into “I’m not enough” mode. If you’ve ever gripped it and ripped it just to prove something, this one’s for you. Let’s ditch the comparison trap and play smarter, not harder.Get the Master Your Golf Brain System powered by My Mental Caddy™️ appReceive free weekly mental golf tips HEREHow many shots is your mental golf costing you?
