The experience had a deep and lasting impression on me and opened up a whole new world of enquiry and thought about the coaching process. Fred has continued to influence many coaches and players with his ability to look at the game in a way that really gets you to think about what the game truly MEANS to you What is your PURPOSE for playing the game? What is really important to you about the experience? In today's show amongst many topics we managed to really drill down into the FOUR types of coaching. The 'DO' instruction. The model for 90% of todays golf coaching whereby a teacher 'tells' you what to do in your swing based on his or her belief about how the golf swing SHOULD function The 'awareness' instruction which is much more of a coaching based approach where a coach simply asks you to pay attention to what is ACTUALLY happening in your experience of swinging a club. This leads to a much stronger learning experience. EXCLUSIVE FOR CERTIFIED MIND COACHES ONLY!! You have the skills. Now learn how to apply them.

Capitalise on the Early Bird rate on offer!! Limited places. The BE instruction This is where the coach helps you explore the PERSON you are when you swing the golf club. Are you going to play as a courageous golfer perhaps? At the heart of this instruction is your own COMMITMENT The fourth type of instruction is to challenge HOW the world 'occurs' to you. If the golf course occurs to you as a place of threat then no amount of the first two types of instruction will have much effect. To understand how the world is occurring to you and the CHOICE you have in creating that narrative This session is not for the faint hearted. It is challenging It will really make you consider your approach to the game It is a wonderful conversation with a very special coach To find out more about Fred Shoemaker go to www.extraordinarygolf.com To find out more about Karl Morris and the Mind Factor go to www.themindfactor.com
