Mental Game
Strategy is a
thought process
tokeep you feeling
calm, confident
and focused from
the first shot to
the last.
In the December issue of
NWO Golf Links I discussed
how to incorporate the mental
toughness of a Navy SEAL into
your golf game. This month I
want to help you to think like
a SEAL and create a
Mental
Game Strategy.
By successfully completing
the Seal’s grueling physical
and mental tests, they have
total confidence in their
skills. They are physically and
mentally prepared for even
the most difficult or dangerous
assignment and at 100%
readiness at all times.
Naturally, they feel nervous,
or excited, as well as, a host
of other emotions, but being
a highly trained professional,
they immediately put these
distractions to rest and
revert to their mental and
physical preparation. They
are involved in serious life-or-
death missions, so they must
be
100% READY
at all times.
Golf is certainly not life-or-
death, and it is difficult to
be as prepared as a trained
professional for a round
of golf. You can, however,
start thinking more like one
by approaching golf with a
Mental Game Strategy.
Golfers continuously debate
whether golf is more mental or
physical. The answer, of course,
isneither, it requiresbothmental
acuity and physical strength.
You can, however, improve the
mental part of your golf game in
a few easy steps.
