ゴルフの考え方を変えることですべてが変わる
And the genius said, “Hey, Justin, this ball can do whatever you want it to do.” Mhm. What would that look like? Go in the hole. [Music] I think any average or amateur golfer will understand the problems with the yips with with a wedge in the hand. Of course, if you’re out here and you have an 80 yard shot over water, if you top it, if you scuff it, if you do anything but put it in the air high with an ice arc, you’re going to have a bad time. Ben, you’re a toast. How can I get mentally more prepared for this shot? Because, of course, execution always comes down to the execution. How can I at least relieve some of that undue stress, some of that golf stress that you put on yourself because you feel like you have to hit a shot a certain way? So first and foremost buddy, if you listen to your selft talk heading into this conversation, you keep telling me about all the things that you don’t want to have happen. It’s true. So the first advice I would have for you, man, stop it. Your brain doesn’t know the difference between when you’re telling yourself not to do something versus when you’re trying to do something. Right? So if I tell you uh you know, hey Justin, whatever you do, don’t think of a bright red Ford F-150. What comes to the top of your mind? A bright red Ford F150. Imagine that. Right? So you’re sitting here telling yourself not to skull it, not to hit in the water. I got the hips, all these things, right? So, there’s a part of your brain, it’s called your cerebel. One of its jobs is to self-organize, to make that thing that you’re thinking about come to life. And unfortunately, when you’re telling yourself not to do something, your subconscious thinks that’s what you’re trying to do. And then this handy dandy cerebellum selforganizes to get your ball to do what you don’t want it to do. Got it? So, first thing is, man, you got to clean up that selft talk. Clean up your mouth. Clean up my internal mouth. I guess that’s first and foremost. Okay. So if I walk up to the shot after I hit a nice obviously this would be position A on the way that this course play here at red run. We’re thinking at 80 yards I should just be thinking okay looking at that pin maybe if I’m a little bit left of it it’s probably not going to be too bad going right at it’s probably not going to be no we see what he’s doing again here. You see what he’s doing again the same thing. He’s telling himself what he doesn’t want to happen like I don’t want to go left. I said I can’t you can go left. I said you can go left of the pin. Let’s reframe. I’m trying to reframe my mind so I don’t think about the water being there at all. So, can you answer this question for me? Sure. If you could rub the genie and the genie said, “Hey, Justin, this ball can do whatever you want it to do.” Mhm. What would that look like? Go in the hole. Shocker. Wow. I know. See how easy that was? I’m going to flush this thing 80R. It’s going to land before the pin. It’s going to go a little bit back. It’s going to suck back right into the back of the cup. That would be great. Start there, bro. If you could rub the genie in a perfect world, what do you want the ball to do? You guys don’t have to describe what you don’t want it to do. I’m gonna step up to this ball. I’m gonna hit it nice right at the pin with a good backspin and it’s going to go in. See how different that is, buddy. All right, we’ll give it a go. [Music] Did you folks hear that? Did you hear that? Oh my gosh. It’s perfectly fine. But you know what you didn’t do? Think you didn’t do all the things that you feared initially in that conversation. That’s true. So the first thing with your 60yard wedge shots, buddy, can you just do a very simple thing for me? Can you clean up the story you’re telling yourself, man? Okay. Cuz that alone will help you hit much better wedge shots. Did you hear how much better that was compared to maybe what’s been happening to you in the past? Ah, yeah. I clipped that one pretty good there. You know, I was thinking about that genie. Just where where can I now I got to go talk to him again up there and hope I can make that putt. That’s right. So remember, go rub the genie’s belly. Ask yourself a better question behind the ball. Visualize success instead of telling yourself what you don’t want to have happen. We hope this tip helps. We look forward to seeing you next time.
Most golfers step up to a shot thinking about what could go wrong — the water, the bunker, the trees. 🌲💧⛔️
But BE Golf’s Ben Bockin and Metro Detroit Golfers’ Justin Rose break down how to flip that mindset completely. Great golf starts with clarity and intention, not fear.
This episode dives into the foundational mindset shift behind BE Golf coaching:
Focus on what you want the ball to do, not what you’re afraid of
Create confidence through intention, not reaction
Train your mind to stay present before and during the shot
Learn how your thoughts directly shape your swing and results
This is golf coaching that goes deeper than mechanics — it’s about how you think.
