Mental Game

TSGI is very fortunate to be working with Dr. Deborah Graham and Jon Stabler with the mental side of the game.

Dr. Graham and Jon Stabler have worked with over 100 PGA, LPGA and Champions Tour players. To have their expertise and guidance for the mental side of the game is a great benefit to all TSGI students.golf

Dr. Graham focuses on the 8 traits of champion golfers. The 8 traits are: focus, abstract thinking, emotional stability, dominance, tough mindedness, confidence, self-sufficiency and optimum arousal. These 8 champions' traits were developed over years of analyzing and testing the best golfers in the world (PGA, LPGA and Champions tour players).

All TSGI students will tested with Dr. Graham's golfpsych test which will cover all 8 champion traits. The test will reveal where the students are strong mentally and where they need improvement. The test results will be sent back to the student in a 50 page report that documents all 8 traits and how they can improve upon those 8 traits. From there the student and either Dr. Graham or Jon Stabler will discuss a program for mental improvement. I will work hand and hand with Dr. Graham and Jon Stabler to help the students achieve peak mental performance.

Every week all TSGI students will meet and discuss a SMART GOLF topic that will help them with their mental game. SMART GOLF topics that will be discussed are: goal setting, how to mentally prepare for a tournament, trust, having fun, desire, dedication, positive attitude and positive self talk and patience and perseverance.

All TSGI students will be given SHARP and SMART GOLF; "A JUNIORS GUIDE to GOLFING SUCCESS" this book will cover all the mental topics and also provide goal setting sheets for each month. Also included in working with Dr. Graham and Jon Stabler is their valuable website which provides great tools for goal setting, tournament goals, practice goals and mental evaluations for the state of each student's game. All TSGI students will be given their own private code to use the golfpsych website (www.golfpsych.com) to their own use.

The mental game is a very important aspect of the improvement of all TSGI students and with the help of Dr. Graham and Jon Stabler TSGI students will have all the tools for a great mental game!
