Information on how to take your golf game to a higher level abound all over the place and you have no doubt seen the adverts. You might have even taken the next step and bought those golf balls that promise you 30 yards more distance or the latest driver that powers drives straight down the fairway. So, are you in fact getting those extra yards and accuracy?

It is time to stop believing all the myths that you hear from those big companies and their advertising campaigns. A perfect golf game is not just about having a great golf swing or buying the most expensive golf equipment.

It is true that the beginner can learn a lot from some of the golf swing guides or fix a persistent golf swing fault with a certain golf training aid. In fact, I have reviewed and recommended several good guide books and training aids that can improve areas of your swing on my blog. Did you know that there is one missing piece of the golf puzzle that you should know about? It is the mental game of golf.

Firstly though, in order to dismiss the myths that you can buy a great golf game, let us have a look at the facts:

25% of golfers back in the 1970’s managed to break 90 and a smaller number could post scores in the 70’s. 30 years have passed and we can now use over-sized drivers with larger and more forgiving sweet spots, wide sole and cavity back irons, and golf balls with 4 piece construction. So, how many golfers can today break 90? Well, from 25%, we have gone all the way up to 28%!

It has been estimated that 90 billion has been spent by the golf equipment industry on new technology and ad spend since the late 70’s. So the golf industry should be contented to know that a further 3% of golfers have managed to break 90! Not included in those billions are the huge outlay of capital spent on the development of golf training aids and golf instructional products.

Do you want to know what the missing ingredient is that can promote the fastest and long lasting transformation to any golfer’s game? The key to these improvements is with the mental game of golf. This is the only area of golf that doesn’t cost any money to use, yet so few golfers use it.

The mental game is using your brain in a calculated, focused and methodical manner and is the surest method to golf improvement and lower scores. It is in fact a large subject and to understand the mental game of golf you need to gain knowledge of things like:

-Gaining confidence in yourself and your game

-How to use your imagination to win

-Controlling your attention

-Find your game and play within it

-Curing golf nerves and anxiety

-Developing clear focus and mental toughness

-Eliminate anger from your game

You should by now be thinking about using the mental game of golf in your game; if you understand the significance of it. The top 5% of golfers understand and use the inner game of golf and that is what separates them from us. These top players know all about how to enter the “Zone” by using advanced visualization techniques that improve every area of their game, powerful goal setting processes, and mental imagery processes.

There is no doubt that golf is an intricate game and so there are many areas that you need to perfect and work on. The first thing you need to use is the right (not the most expensive) golf equipment for your game. You can then practice and improve your golf swing technique, and maybe work on your golf fitness training. But if you truly want to take your golf game to the next level and break 90 or even 70, you need to master the mental game of golf.
