Welcome to The Golfing Mind. This week, we're talking about one simple truth: purposeful practice makes perfect putting. Not hoping, not guessing, but thoughtful, committed repetition. We'll explore how tiny moments on the practice green, done with clear intent, can rewire your feel, steady your nerves and shave strokes where it really counts. So, grab a coffee, take a breath, and let's get dialled in. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The Pressure Trap: Why your best golf disappears under pressure. You’re standing over a three-foot putt. You’ve holed hundreds like it before. But this one matters. Suddenly, your hands feel different, your mind starts racing, and a putt you could normally make with your eyes closed becomes an ordeal. You miss — and spend the next three holes thinking about it. Sound familiar? The question is, why does our golf often fall apart precisely when we need it most? And more importantly, what can we do about it? In this episode of The Golfing Mind, we explore the psychology of performing under pressure. Drawing on sports psychology research, we look at what happens to our bodies, attention and decision-making when the stakes rise — and why trying harder can sometimes make things worse. But understanding the problem is only half the battle. I’ll share three practical mental-game techniques you can take straight onto the course: how to focus on your target rather than obsess over your technique, how to develop a pre-shot routine that helps you commit with confidence, and how to reset mentally after a bad shot instead of allowing one mistake to ruin the next. Because you may not be able to control every shot you hit — but you can learn to control how you think, respond and play. SPECIAL OFFER: SILENT MIND GOLF ONLINE $49.

Uncertainty is everywhere in golf. The bounce you can’t predict, the gust of wind that suddenly changes direction, the putt you’re convinced will drop — but doesn’t. Yet perhaps uncertainty isn’t something golfers should fear. In this episode of The Golfing Mind, we explore how to manage uncertainty, embrace it and even turn it into an advantage. We’ll look at seven powerful mental strategies, from focusing on what you can control to preparing for the unexpected, making better decisions and staying firmly in the present. Because you can’t eliminate uncertainty — but you can learn to play with it. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Golf is often described as a game of technique, but ask the world's greatest players and they'll tell you that what happens in your head can be just as important as what happens with your swing.

We'll explore how some of the greatest golfers in history have dealt with pressure, mistakes, doubt and expectation. Most importantly, I'll give you three simple tips you can take straight onto the golf course. Because sometimes, the biggest improvement in your golf doesn't come from changing your swing. It comes from changing your mind. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Welcome back to The Golfing Podcast. In this episode, we’re exploring a fascinating connection between two sports that, on the surface, couldn’t seem more different: golf and surfing. My guest is George Kershaw, and together we dive into the similarities between riding a wave and navigating a golf course—from reading conditions and finding rhythm to managing pressure and embracing the unpredictable. We discuss how the mindset, movement and freedom found in surfing can translate to golf, and why both sports demand patience, feel and a willingness to adapt. It’s a fascinating conversation about two very different games. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses The majors are over, the trophies have been lifted, and the dust has settled on another extraordinary season. But the biggest question in golf is no longer who won — it’s what comes next. In this episode, we look beyond the scorecards and ask how professional golf could change over the next twenty years. Has the disruption caused by LIV Golf permanently altered the landscape, or has it simply accelerated a transformation that was already coming? We explore five bold predictions for the future of the game, from the growing dominance of the majors and shorter, faster formats to AI coaching, urban golf and environmentally driven course design. Then we go even further, imagining five possibilities that sound radical today but may become reality tomorrow: 12-hole championship courses, city golf leagues, wilderness golf, mixed-reality competition and a completely new global structure for professional golf. If you love the game and wonder where it’s heading, this episode is for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
https://www.siegergolf.com/ Golf has always been a game of fine margins. A single thought, a fleeting doubt, or a familiar routine can sometimes seem to make all the difference. So why do so many golfers cling to lucky balls, insist on the same pre-shot ritual, or refuse to change a winning routine? Are these harmless habits, comforting rituals, or genuine performance enhancers? In this edition of The Golfing Mind, we explore the fascinating psychology behind the superstitions and routines that have become part of golfing folklore—from the world's greatest players to weekend golfers convinced they've found the secret to better scores. And later, I'll be joined by a guest with an intriguing idea that could offer a fresh perspective on the way we experience the game.
