It’s all about finding a routine that keeps you calm under pressure. Have you guys tried pre-shot routines?
Absolutely! A solid routine can ground you and help eliminate stress.
Whenever I shank one, I just remind myself that every golfer goes through it. Maintaining perspective is key!

100%! Sometimes a little humor helps, like saying, ‘Now that’s a unique way to slice the ball!’
What’s your take on positive self-talk? I find that repeating a few encouraging phrases before my swing helps me a lot.
Great idea! Positive reinforcement can shift your mindset, especially during tense moments.
I wonder if anyone has tried writing down their swing thoughts? It could help clarify what to focus on.

Is it just me, or do shanks make you feel like you’re back to square one in your game? So frustrating!
For sure! But every golfer can overcome them with the right approach. It’s about progress, not perfection.
