Stick to The Process To Play Your Best Golf

Many times, mental coaches for golf, such as myself, recommend “focusing on the process.” But what does this statement actually mean and why do it?

Before and during your rounds, shifting your focus from outcomes—such as your score and the consequences of how you will play—to your process, is key. Your process is a combination of all the actions and routines that you follow to improve outcomes. Examples of this are consistent pre-shot routines or regular putting practice. These activities are all 100% within your control, so placing your focus on them not only means that you are doing the tasks that will improve performance, but it also helps create a more neutral performance state (because what you are focusing on is emotionally neutral).

Why make process your priority?

You want to shoot a good score, I get it. Every competitive player wants to play well and see their name at the top of the leaderboard at the end of the tournament. But the question to ask yourself is: does trying to succeed (or avoid failure) and attain those outcomes and having those thoughts of them before and during play increase the likelihood of you achieving them? My experience from coaching hundreds of players on the mental game would conclude otherwise.

Thinking about the end result and what that will mean for your life (good or bad) only triggers emotions and physiological changes that are not conducive to bringing out your best, mentally and physically, during a shot. The reason, is that you are focusing on something that is uncertain which causes the mind and body to begin preparing for the worst.
