08.06 Golf - det mentale spillet:
Klarer du ikke å sprenge din
komfortable sone? Her er noen gode råd
De fleste har visse forventninger til sin runde på golfbanen før de starter.
Man venter seg en score eller en poengsum før man går ut. Det er kanskje verre med Stableford enn med slagspill. Man venter kanskje 30 til 34 poeng i Stableford,
mens man tenker på et litt større sprik foran en runde hvor alle slagene
teller.
Når du er halvveis og har spilt meget bra, er det lett å falle tilbake til
gamle synder. 21 poeng følges gjerne opp med 12-14 poeng på de siste 9 hullene.
Eller 33 slag på de første 9 følges opp med 43 slag på de siste 9 slik at
scoren blir 76 - og spilleren har kanskje 3-4 i handicap.
Noe slikt er utgangspunktet for en artikkel i improve-your-golf-game.net.
Hvordan skal man klare å spille bedre enn din "Comfort Zone"?
"We limit ourselves with our own expectations"
Her er noen tanker:
One question that players always ask me is: "Why do I shoot 33 on the front
nine and turn around and shoot 43 on the back nine? I feel like I am two
different players." I respond that maybe a comfort zone is at work. A comfort
zone starts with an expectation the player has about his or her ability to
shoot a certain score. A comfort zone, or what would more appropriately be
called a "discomfort zone", creates feeling of anxiety when you play better or
worse than you typically play. Thus, we limit ourselves with our own
expectations. Most of the time a comfort zone comes into play when you are
playing better than expected. It can work the opposite way also. When you shoot
45 on the front side and say to yourself "I better than that", and you shoot 38
on the back side.
Most players place limitations on their performance because they expect to
shoot within a certain scoring range on a given day. John, for example, usually
shoots in the mid seventies and has a scoring zone of plus or minus four shots
from his average score. He always manages to finish a round within his comfort
zone because of his expectations. If he shoots 33 on the front nine, he then
shoots 40 on the back nine. Conversely, if he shoots 40 on the front nine, he
plays himself back into his comfort zone and shoots 33 on the back nine.
If you are having trouble beating your comfort zone, here are some ideas:
1. Don’t Protect Your Score—Play Aggressively. When you realize you are playing
great, the focus often shifts to avoiding failure, rather than continuing to
play aggressively and go for the best round of your life. You begin to "protect"
and play defensive golf. This causes you to look at the hazards, water, and out
of bounds. The key is to play one hole at a time and maintain the same style of
play that got you in position to shoot a good score, rather than adopting a
cautious style of play to maintain your score.
2. Focus on Hitting Quality Shots—Forget about Your Score. As soon as you
become score-conscious the comfort zone is at work. You notice your score is
better than "normal" and begin to project what score you can shoot for the
round. "If I could just par in" you say to yourself. Then you begin to just try
to make par on the last few holes. Your strategy changes as you try to protect
a good score. You usually then make bogeys with this strategy. Sound familiar?
Have someone else keep your score.
3. Don’t Limit Yourself with Expectations. On the golf course, you have to
learn to play with no expectations. Humans place limits on their potential. If
you think you are a bogey golfer then you will play to bogey most likely. How
many holes have you birdied on your home course. You must believe you have the
ability to par or birdie every hole on the golf course.? But don\\'t expect to
birdie every hole or shoot a certain score. If you are playing "above" what you
expect, assume that you are only playing near your maximum potential.
4.Don’t Think Ahead. A player who projects the score she will shoot is not
focused on playing one shot at a time. She is thinking ahead about a finishing
score and not focusing on the task, which is to get the ball into the hole in
the least number of strokes. This is the time to focus your mind on the process
of hitting good shots. Without a process, present-oriented focus, you are
doomed to think about your possible score for the round. And the thought of
score is irrelevant to what you need to do to make that three-footer you are
standing over! Add up your score at the end of the round. When you can play
a round and not know what you shot, you will be closer to conquering the
comfort zone phenomenon.
Performance Tip:
1. The key is to stay in the process and forget about score. To do this, set
two or three goals for yourself before the round. These should be process
goals. For example, you might set two physical goals such as hitting 10 of 14
fairways and hitting 12 of 18 greens, and you might set one mental goal such as
focusing only on the present shot for 18 holes. If you start to project your
score, stop and refocus on the present shot. Ask yourself the question: "What
do I need to do right now to hit a good shot or putt?"
