Think Above Par | Your Mental Caddy for Golf Mindset & Performance

The 3 Biggest Mental Game Lies in Golf


Listen Later

You’ve probably heard this advice before:
 “Just stay positive.”
 “Don’t think so much.”
 “Confidence comes from playing well.”

Sounds right… but it’s not.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the three biggest lies golf taught you about the mental game—and why they might actually be making your game worse.

We’re talking about why forced positivity feels fake, why you can’t stop thinking (and shouldn’t try), and why tying your confidence to your score is a losing strategy.

This isn’t about thinking happier thoughts.
 It’s about thinking better ones.

If you’re tired of doing all the “right” mental game things and still feeling stuck, this episode will show you what actually works—so you can play with more clarity, confidence, and a lot less mental chaos.

Let’s clean this up and get your brain working for you again.
