Think Above Par - The Rules That Mess Up Your Golf
play

11/16/21 • 12 min

In this episode, I introduce you to the concept of "rules books".
Not the USGA version that you might reference for a ruling when you play. This is more like a manual that you unknowingly, at times, carry with you when you play.
This rules book affects how you show up during a round. It impacts your emotions, focus, score and overall enjoyment.
Listen in to discover where to find what you have in your rules book and how it affects your score.

Think Above Par - Ruining Your Game With The Golf Rules
play

06/15/22 • 12 min

Playing by the rules is an integral part of the game. The USGA talks about it in Rule 1. It includes playing within the spirit of the game. One of those is calling out the rules on yourself. Many golfers, however, use the rules against themselves and their playing partners and it interferes with your game and your mindset on the course.
In this episode, I share my opinion in a way to think about the rules so that you can find more certainty and confidence when you play.

Think Above Par - Setting Boundaries On the Golf Course
play

06/08/22 • 15 min

Setting and taking care of your personal boundaries on the golf course is critical for your success and ability to stay focused.
It is about what you are willing to tolerate and where you speak up for yourself. It could be golf etiquette, rules, values, or personal nuances like chewing gum, talking, playing music.
In this podcast, I define what a boundary is and the two main reason we avoid making them.
I also share more details about two types of boundaries - personal and golf.
It is important to establish the difference before your round and to make sure you have your own back with whatever you choose.

This episode is all about the stories we tell ourselves about our golf games and how those tales can either lift us up or weigh us down. Ever finish a round and then chat about it over lunch with your buddies? Those recaps, the ones you share or just replay in your head, they really shape how we feel about our game. This episode dives into recognizing when we're stuck in a negative loop, like blaming the wind or bad bounces, and how to flip the script. It's about seeing where we can take a bit more control, maybe by ditching the blame game or by getting out and practicing in the rain if that's what gets us. By tweaking the stories we tell about our golf rounds, focusing more on what we can control and less on what we can't, we can actually start enjoying the game more and maybe even knock a few strokes off our scores. The episode is really a nudge to own our golf stories in a way that benefits us on and off the course.
