First one freezes over the ball. Can’t pull the trigger. Stands there forever.
Second one rushes every shot like the range is closing in 5 minutes.
Third one’s muttering swing thoughts under his breath.
Hips, shoulders, takeaway, lag, follow through…
I give all three the same diagnosis.
Mate — your swing’s fine. Your nervous system is cooked.
Different symptoms. Same root cause.
So here’s what we do.
First we identify the state you’re in and what’s driving it. Then we regulate it. Breathing, body language, pattern interrupt — whatever it takes to get you primed for performance.
Once the state is sorted we work on changing your relationship to the pressure itself. So it stops feeling like a threat and starts feeling like just another shot.
And when that clicks?
The freezing stops. The rushing stops. The swing thoughts disappear.
You just play.
Freely. Like you do when nobody’s watching.
That’s the work and we start in Sydney this Sunday at Perform Under Pressure.

5 days to go!
Only 7 tickets left.
I was going to put the price back to $49 but f&%K it. Who wants a FREE one??
Let's get rid of these last 7 tickets in the next 24 hours.
Who wants to learn why they crumble under the pressure of the golf course or in front of others?
This isn't a theory session. Its a work shop. You're going to do some practical work so you can go play your next round calmer and in more control.
I'm also giving all those that show up the First Tee Nerves Settler Toolkit for free. Worth $250 it includes 4 go to exercises you can use to settle the nerves, reduce your performance anxiety and quieten the mind. But you gotta show up to get it.
Comment or DM me 'TICKET' to grab one of the last ones.
Tag your mate who hits his bunker shots further than their driver 😂
If you want to play with less nerves and more confidence without changing your swing then the Perform Under Pressure workshop is for you.
Free tickets but limited seats.
Comment PRESSURE and I’ll send you the link for more full details.
It’s that easy.
Inhale. Hold. Exhale.
Done the way I described and that simple pattern tells your nervous system the pressure is over.
Heart rate drops. Tension releases. You feel your swing again and the mind is quiet.
Use it when you feel the tension increasing.
