Coaching and Caddying for a PGA Tour winner – Randy Joyner #224

Today we welcome back onto the Brain Booster our really good friend and colleague from the USA, Randy Joyner. Randy has been establishing himself over the past few years as one of the very best coaches in the States. He has had outstanding results at ALL levels applying many of the ‘Lost Art of Golf’ principles. One of his long time students is Derek Ernst who has been a winner on the PGA Tour. We got the chance to discuss with Randy how he works with Derek and in particular what he learned from a recent experience where he caddied for Derek in the John Deere Classic. There are some absolute gems of information within this conversation. On this particular week Derek was struggling to make the cut and Randy describes just how they manged to get the job done and play at the weekend. We often hear about winners on Tour but the real pressure for many players is to get over the cut line and have employment for the weekend We get totally inside the ropes here with the player/caddie relationship We discussed : How a top player would prepare for a PGA Tour event The pitfalls of doing the WRONG type of practice Falling into the ‘seriousness’ trap How you need to ‘live life’ outside the confines of the four rounds The importance of the ‘in between’ time. The 90% of golf that is NOT golf Trying to make the cut, feeling uncomfortable but getting the job done anyway To find out more about ‘The President’s Cup Experience’ with Karl and Randy go to https://www.tourmindfactor.com To become a certified Mind Factor Coach go to https://themindfactor.net/the-certification-course/ To find out more about the golfers health screen with Pall Mall   Pall Mall’s health screen packages assess your blood profile, highlight any markers for certain cancers, check your heart health, stroke risk, other major organ health and much more.
