Last week you learned why words are costing you strokes. Today you get the weapon.

In Part 2 Bo and Shannon deliver everything promised from Part 1, and then go even further with brand-new science that was not in the book.

Here is what you will hear in this episode:

— Why you cannot control negative thoughts, but you can stop pulling the trigger on them, and exactly how the T-chart gives you the tool to do it in real time

— The three types of Power Talk and which one science proves is the most powerful under pressure: I statements, you statements, and name-based statements, and why Cristiano Ronaldo talks to himself in third person before every penalty kick

— University of Michigan research showing that using your own name in self-talk drops your amygdala fear response by 25 to 35 percent while keeping decision-making 15 to 20 percent more active — producing 8 to 15 percent better scores in close competition

— The bank robbery analogy and Shannon's snake story from Seattle that prove words change your physiology before your brain can argue

— The cortisol killer and how Power Talk physiologically switches you from sympathetic stress mode to parasympathetic calm mode, loosening your muscle fibers and increasing clubhead speed

— Shannon's real cycling brake story on how "adversity is my advantage" lowered his rate of perceived exertion on a 40-mile ride and took his average from 19.5 to 21 miles per hour

— The complete Power Talk library by category, swing, pressure, adversity, putting, short game, score, and present-moment focus with the chipping yips research that reframes difficult lies entirely

— The three-part Power Talk formula: your name, an instruction reminder, a confidence boost — and Shannon's step-by-step plan for building it into your game over the next four to eight weeks

— The T-chart built live on the episode with real examples for both sides
