Six steps to mastering the mental game of golf..... introduction
I first played golf with Dr. Joe Parent in 1976,
In October, 2010 I attended a conference in Dallas, along with many of the top golf instructors in North America.One presenter at the Dallas Teaching Summit in October 2010, was the short game guru Stan Utley. Author of The Art of Putting, and The Art of the Short Game, Utley has become one of the top short game teachers on the PGA Tour.
The next presentation was AimPoint founder, Mark Sweeney, who was named one of golf's Top Innovators by Golf Digest Magazine, and was called "the best kept secret in golf" by the Golf Channel.
Another speaker at the teaching conference in Dallas was Rick Jensen, a sport psychologist `who works with 50 top tour players, who have combined won 33 majors. His opening statement was a bombshell. Addressing many of the world’s finest teachers he started with `The business you all are in, golf instruction, is BROKEN’.
In October, I attended a conference for teachers and coaches in North America. One of the keynote speakers was Chuck Cook, a PGA teaching professional from Texas. Mr. Cook has been a top teacher for many years; his students include Payne Stewart and Tom Kite.
One of the presenters was Dr. Gio Valliente, a sports psychologist who works with Matt Kucher, Justin Rose, Camilo Villegas, and many other professional golfers.
Systems theory is relatively new, as science goes. It deals with large organizations, such as galaxies, to small ones, like atoms, and everything in between. Individuals, tribes, fortune 500 companies, and even golf games can be included in the principles of this discipline. Buckminister Fuller and Margaret Meade were very influential in bringing Cybernetics and Systems Theory to the common man.
