This tip relates to how we can break out of our golf comfort zone but I think it's important to start initially with understanding what is your comfort zone and and how does it relate to golf. I really think in life we all have our own comfort zone we like waking up in our own bed we like walking down a street we recognize. We like seeing the same people when we walk into work that's our comfortable zone, and when we go to the golf course we might expect to shoot a similar score to what we've always shot. So for example let's pick an eighteen handicap golf an eighteen handicap golfer would probably score somewhere between eighty eight and ninety five that would be just a bit lower than his handicap to just about every tiny cap on a par seventy two golf course that would be his comfort zone and it might be four or five shots up and forty five shots down, but it's somewhere in that region and if that golfer goes and shoots that score he probably comes home on the Saturday afternoons. As you know up played OK today about what had expected that's the comfort zone. If he shot hundred ten on the golf course he'd come back absolutely furious because he's way outside his comfort zone is mates of laughter and he's disappointed and he wasted his time and that's because he's outside his comfort zone is outside of his expectation but there's a flip side to this where golfers consume times almost shoot too low and that sounds a bit strange because isn't our objective to shoot as low as we possibly can. For some golfers and this is not just club golfer as it sometimes happens at the highest level as well they always shoot to score they're embarrassed to shoot.

You know you might get to the turn as an eighteen handicapper and be two or three over par twenty four twenty five stable for points and I was like wow you have in the round of your life today. This is amazing you're doing a brilliant score and then the panic sets in the doubt sets said what if I can't keep it up what if what if my handicap reduces too much what if I win by the competition by too many shots and suddenly you're fearful of becoming outside your comfort zone and subconsciously you start defending you stop playing a different format of golf or a different game strategy to what got you to that position have been way under your handicap in the first place. You start changing start being defensive you start trying to protect your score suddenly the bogies creep and then the doubt creeps in then the bad shots creep in and the score goes back back back and then suddenly you finish and you shot eighty eight again and you realize oh that's better I'm back in my comfort zone again and it happens with the world's best players. They sometimes get to have six seven under par after the front nine and they very often very rarely do they actually finish off with six seven under par again. It's difficult to do don't get me wrong but they almost think well let's just get back to a more comfortable level and it's not a deliberate thing done abrupt not deliberate they just start to try and defend a little bit too much and that's all about getting in and out of your comfort zone. So as a golfer don't stay in your comfort zone be prepared to go low and try and improve your best round by getting out of your comfort zone.
