The ZGA’s  Mental Game Toolkit provides the tools to think your way to better scores.  It is a primer for the mental game. The mental game for the golfer is the learning, applying, and retaining sports psychology concepts as applied to the preparation and playing golf.

This toolkit will NOT require additional driving range time nor does it require the strength, balance, and coordination of a person like Tiger. 

The following are some topics that you can learn at the ZGA:

1. A new perspective to allow a golfer (even a Pro) to have more fun and improved self-satisfaction.
2. An understanding and application of mental imagery or visualization just like Brad Faxon, Fred Couples, and other Pros use.
3. An understanding of your ‘on board feed back system’ or proprioceptors to generate the feel and muscle memory for correct body pivot, swing path, etc.
4. Awareness and mindfulness in practice and play.
5. How to generate an internal ‘climate’ to facilitate getting into the zone and staying there.
6. Implement a swing change without losing confidence.
7. Understand and improve motivation, confidence, clarity, and consistency EACH day.
8. Manage distractions on and off the course.
9. Manage anger on and off the course.
10.  Use of key practice and personal measurements to evaluate   progress, maintain focus, and build confidence.
11.   What to do prior to a tournament.
12.   How to warm up you mind, body, and technique prior to playing.
