1_watermark

With the Golf season winding down here in the Northeast, NOW is a great time to reflect on your game so you can put together the proper game plan that will yield the results you would like to achieve in 2018.  Here are a few quick tips to help you prepare for 2018 like a Pro:

Create an End of Season Golf Assessment
First, break your game into a few different categories. Then take note of what you would like to repeat, and what you would like to improve upon in 2018. Get as detailed as you would like.

Here are some examples of the areas you can consider taking a look at:

Mental Approach
Your mental approach encompasses all that you do on and off the course to help you to be your best.  Some examples of areas to assess could be: your motivation level, expectations, on the course attitude, focus, and daily/monthly commitment.  Collectively, these are all areas that you can evaluate and improve upon with the right techniques.

Golf Fitness

Were you injury free? Did your fitness enhance your golf game, or did it compromise your performance? Would any changes in this area make next season more rewarding?

Nutrition/Sleep

Many of the best golfers/athletes in the world focus on these areas to help bring about their very best performances.  Is this an area that can help take your game to the next level?

Golf Swing and Short Game
If you were satisfied, take note of what you did that contributed to your success. On the other hand, if you would like to improve in either area, what is your new plan going to look like going forward to achieve your goals?

Benefits:
The greatest seasons in golf history all started with a vision that was broken down into small day to day goals.  Using an End of the Season Assessment will give YOU the tools to better understand what brings out your best performances while also helping to fill the gaps in areas you could potentially improve upon. Assess your game, then set your mind towards a new game plan and make 2018 your best season yet!!!
