Tips from Jennifer Scott on developing a positive mental approach to golfHypnosis could put you in the zone
Golf Stress: How to Handle It -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Jennifer Scott, Clinical Hypnotherapist What can an otherwise good golfer do to keep stress from taking over? Two things: Distract your Conscious Mind That was exactly where you didn't want to go, so why did you hit it there? Because your Subconscious mind took over your swing. It doesn't hear negatives like not or don't. It hears lake and processes it as "Hit to lake." So you've got to concentrate on the positive. Think only about where you want the ball to go. This is a universal rule. It works on drives, pitches over sand traps and putting as well. Focus on the Target. (By the way, it works in life off the golf course, too, but that's another story.) You have to find a way to distract the Conscious Mind. Fuzzy Zoeller does it by whistling. I train my golf Clients to substitute peaceful thoughts for tense ones through Self-Hypnosis. They use it as part of their pre-shot routine, so nobody else knows it's happening. Of course, my Clients know it's working because their handicap is going down! When you can distract your Conscious mind and educate your Subconscious, you'll be able to eliminate stress on the golf course. Then, when your partner says, "Watch out for water on the right, you'll have the answer." "What water?"

By Jennifer Scott, Clinical Hypnotherapist On the Buy.Com Tour, volunteer golfers are wearing heart rate monitors. TV viewers can see how fast their hearts are beating. So what? The implication is that the more excited a golfer is -- and the faster his heart beats -- the worse he'll play. Not true. Jack Nicklaus wanted excitement and he did all right. What The Golf Channel ought to strap on them is a portable EEG -- a brain wave monitor. Because it's the brain -- and swing thoughts -- you want to control. In fact, you want no swing thoughts at all. Bobby Jones said: "If I have no swing thoughts at all, I can play like Bobby Jones." My clients learn how to clear out all extraneous thoughts by picturing the Target. Target Focus not only replaces swing thoughts, it also lets your body perform the swing automatically. Which lowers your golf score. And lower scores are good for your heart.

By Jennifer Scott, Clinical Hypnotherapist In the movie, Caddyshack, before they swung, golfers repeated the mantra, "Be the Ball!" This is OK for a funny movie or if you're a beginning golfer who's likely to miss the ball if you don't pay supreme attention to it. But for anyone else it's ridiculous. Because you're better than that. You don't want to just hit the ball. You want the ball to go someplace. Like...a Target. It would be much better for you to "Be The Target." To focus intensely on the target. To picture your ball going to it. To have it so burned into your mind that you can still see it in your mind's eye when you're addressing the ball. Watch the pre-shot routine of any good golf professional. What do you think they're doing when they stand in back of the ball, in line with the target? They're picturing the ball flying to the target. This is what my Golf Clients do through Self-Hypnosis. No, they're not in a trance. They're just relaxed. Through instant Self-Hypnosis, they're able to picture something happening and then let it happen. My golf Clients "see" the ball going to the target while they're looking at the ball they're about to hit. The connection with the target is never lost. Want to improve your scoring? Before every shot, make the target your image. Get the picture?

By Jennifer Scott, Clinical Hypnotherapist At the pairs competition of the 2002 Winter Olympics, commentator Scott Hamilton told of a good piece of advice given to ice skaters: "Skate Stupid." Which means don't think about what you have to do to execute that triple Axel. You don't have time. Just do it. But wait. Golfers are told to have "key" swing thoughts. Like "Turn your shoulders but restrict your hips." Or "Start the downswing with your feet [knees] [arms]," etc., etc. What could be wrong with "key" swing thoughts? This: in 1.6 seconds, the average golfer can't think about something and then execute it. Top professionals can, sometimes. But you? Forget about it. Don't think. Swing Stupid. So how does a golfer not think while swinging? You just replace thinking with something else. Fuzzy Zoeller whistles. Others chew gum. Through Self-Hypnosis, my golf Clients burn in the image of the target, then retain that image as they address the ball. They "see" the ball going to the target while they're looking at the ball they're about to hit. So the connection with the target is never lost. The swing happens naturally. The ball goes to the target. That doesn't sound so stupid, does it?

By Jennifer Scott, Clinical Hypnotherapist But you're neither Will nor Phil, so how are you going to make those difficult shots without getting into all kinds of trouble? My first answer may surprise you, coming from a Hypnotherapist. Don't do difficult shots. Tommy Armour said it first. Play the shot that makes your next shot the easiest. Today, it's called course management. If you're always making your next shot easy, you'll consistently be hitting easy shots. And hitting easy shots will do wonders for your confidence. Which will do wonders for your score! Instead of trying to hit a 3 iron under branches and then have it hook 30 feet onto the green and stop on a dime, youll choose to chip a 7 iron into the middle of the fairway. Instead of trying to hit a drive 280 yards, into the wind, over a trap on the right side of the fairway, you'll tee off with the club that cant hit it that far. But if you have to hit a difficult shot, my second answer is this: don't try. Do. You see, "try" is a loaded word. Inside of try is the thought: Theres a chance I can't do this, but I'll attempt to do it, even though its very hard. This is the very definition of negative thinking. You just raised the mental bar until it became a barrier. Instead of trying, you want to be doing, approaching the task with every fiber of your being in tune and ready to succeed. Get the endorphins and the adrenaline flowing and you can do miracles. Youll be In The Zone.

By Jennifer Scott, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist Ever say that to yourself after a particularly bad golf shot? Turns out there are three things really wrong with doing that. To quote sports psychologist Dr. Bob Rotella, "golf is not a game
of perfect." From Tiger Woods on down to you, all golfers make mistakes.
The game is too hard to avoid them. Instead of all that, you'd learn to look at the target and burn that image into your consciousness. You'd "see" the target even when looking down at the ball you're about to hit. Just like Bobby Jones, you wouldn't have any swing thoughts at all. So your body could swing as well as possible. The results? Lower scores. And no more self-flagellation.

"Driving Range Golfers" By Jennifer Scott, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist You know them - golfers who hit every shot beautifully at the driving range and then make every mistake known to man on the actual golf course. They prove how good they are on the practice facility. And then prove how bad they are on the golf course. I call them "Driving Range Golfers" and nobody needs "Own The Zone™" more. Here's the problem. On the driving range they can repeat and repeat a particular shot until they get it right. They discover the fault and think, "Ah, that's what I was doing wrong! I was blah, blah, blah." Then they get into a rhythm. Now they're hitting everything perfectly. But on the real golf course, their entire problem is between their ears. They think. They try. They analyze. They make the fatal mistake of having a "swing thought" or two and then expect it to happen in the split second before they hit. And as we all know, for the average weekend golfer, this is impossible to pull off on the golf course. Because they're not hitting a bucket of balls. Out here it's one shot at a time. These guys need help, desperately, to clear their minds and focus on nothing, except the target. After all, they should have confidence in their swing. Didn't they just prove it's good at the driving range? Besides, you will face situations on the real golf course that you can't ever practice on a mat. Side-hill lies. Sand traps to hit out of. Hazards to hit over. All the challenges that make a golf course interesting. On the real golf course you need a confidence-building, simplifying technique you can integrate into your pre-shot routine. It's called "Own The Zone.™" And guess what? This one can even help you on the driving range. If you're ready to take the next step toward golfing success, or to buy this great golf gift for the golfer in your life, click here to order now! The Practice Putting Green Is Never Like The Real Ones. By Jennifer Scott, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist They may tell you it's cut to the same height. They can swear it has the same roll as the greens out on the course. But I'm here to tell you there's always a big difference between the practice facility's putting green and the real ones out on the course. And you create it. Because it's the difference between putting for practice and putting under pressure. Under pressure, your conscious mind takes over and proceeds to ruin it
for you. It tells you "Oh, God, you took too big a backswing and
you're going to putt What's a thinking person to do? Well, if you were using my program, your conscious mind wouldn't be trying to fix something in the middle of the swing. You'd trust your practice swing. You'd trust your perceived line. You'd have the ability to be calm -- even under extreme competitive pressure. And you'd have that marvelous feeling that all you have to do is step up and putt the ball into the hole. On the greens, as on the rest of the golf course, you'd "Own The Zone™." If you're ready to take the next step toward golfing success, or to buy this great golf gift for the golfer in your life, click here to order now! Practicing Is Overrated. By Jennifer Scott, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist Ever get to a first tee late, not have time to practice, step up and hit a beautiful drive right down the middle? How can this happen? Well, for one thing, you're not trying mentally to correct what you did on the last swing. There was no last swing. For another thing, you just had to trust that you could do it. So you did. Doesn't this tell you something? It should. It tells you that you're better off not thinking about "keys" or "positions" or "critical moves" as you swing. During your swing, the less thinking the better. Or have you ever watched golfers take perfect practice swings and then proceed to hit fat on the real swing? They'd be better off hitting their practice swing! Why? Same reason: they don't have thoughts cluttering it up. "Own The Zone™" is all about eliminating thought clutter and tension. It takes you (your conscious mind, really) out of your own way. So you can hit beautiful drives right down the middle on more than the first hole. · You can tap into this program, which is exciting both amateurs and professional golfers alike. For a limited time, you can purchase Jennifer Scott's Own the Zone, for just $49.95, plus $6.55 (US) shipping and handling.
