Bo Watson is a former Tour Professional who turned to Golf Instruction and has become a respected Golf Teaching Professional. Shannon Shuskey is a former Professional Soccer player and a USA National Champion and record-holding In Line Speed-skater who is now a Mental Performance Mastery Coach.
The two teamed up to form "In the Zone Mental Training" and over the last 4 years Bo and Shannon have helped over 300 golfers find their best performances. Their success rate has been astounding with over three quarters of the clientele shaving an average of 6.7 strokes off their score in 90 days or less.
They join #OntheMark to share their insights, talk about performing while "In the Zone' and the lost art of kinesthetic Mental Imagery.
As they teach about how athletes can get into the zone to perform freely and at their best they elaborate on a few key concepts:
- The Importance of Mental Imagery
- Breaking the Internal Thermostat of Shooting the Same Score
- PsychoNeuromuscular Training and How to Practice it
- The Importance of Correct Practice over an Obsession with Swing Mechanics,
- Playing "Caveman Golf" and
- How to Accelerate Swing Changes
They also discuss the "King of Breathing," the physiological sigh and how that acts as a dishwasher for the brain, and how you can involve your "Seven Senses" for better performance on the golf course.
