Ever feel like it takes three, four, or even five holes before you finally feel like yourself on the golf course?

In this episode of Think Above Par, I'm talking about one of the most common challenges golfers face—getting into the rhythm of a round. Whether you're dealing with first tee nerves, tournament anxiety, or just feeling out of sync early in your round, I'll show you why it's completely normal... and why making it a problem only keeps you stuck there longer.

You'll learn:

• Why you don't have to feel comfortable to play good golf.
• How to stop judging those first few swings.
• The mindset shift that helps you settle into your round faster.
• Why neutral thinking leads to better scores and more enjoyable golf.

You don't have to wait until Hole #5 to start playing your game. Learn how to trust yourself, manage your mind, and play solid golf—even while you're still settling in.

If you're ready to improve your golf mindset and lower your scores without changing your swing, this episode is for you.
