257: I Had the Putting Yips... Here's How I'm Bouncing Back
About this episode
Let's talk about a scary topic - the yips! Putting is one of the five pillars of playing "wicked smart golf" and key to shooting lower scores. However, sometimes issues arise and that's what happened a few weeks ago.
Luckily, with the help of a few coaches/guests on the show + hard work, I think (or hope) I'm trending in the right direction. I wanted to share this struggle for two reasons:
- Everyone had bad days, rounds, or slumps... no matter how good you get.
- You need to address the issue face-on to solve it quickly and not settle. The mind is powerful if you learn how to use it correctly.
Listen to learn several strategies I've used to overcome the putting yips.
