I first became aware of the ‘Great Golf’ self hypnosis download by Barrie St John when I noticed a huge amount of online searches being made for this particular title. As reviewing self hypnosis recordings is my ‘thing’ and as a 12 handicap golfer myself I purchased the download for myself so I can write a specific and accurate review of the ‘Great Golf’ hypnosis download.

Improving my own golf mental game has drastically reduced my handicap and I always watch out for particularly effecitive golf hypnosis downloads. 

Barrie has a very soft, deep, relaxing voice with a slight Yorkshire accent which is very comforting. He starts off by taking you through the deep relaxation phase and in no time at all I could feel my muscles melting and my body feeling heavier as I relaxed into my armchair. He asks you to start counting down backwards from 300 but as usual, I could only get to about 280 before drifting off into a lovely relaxed, peaceful state.

Barrie oftens uses the term ‘creativity of your unconscious mind ‘which really pinpoints the way these hypnosis products work by harnessing that creativity in such positive ways .

‘There is nowhere you have to be, nobody needs anything, the time is yours, not a care in the world, nothing at all for you to do except to relax and let go’ are the words that really help you to let go of all tensions and allow yourself to float and get in exactly the right frame of mind for golfing thoughts to enter your subconscious mind.

The choice of music is excellent and the 3D effects of Barrie’s voice tracks are extremely professional which is exactly what one would expect from someone who has an active hypnotherapy practise on Harley Street, London.

After about 12 minutes of relaxation Barrie’s words turn to the subject of golf.

You may be in such a wonderful and refreshing trance that you may not notice as Barrie starts to focus on suggesting phrases and images that encourage your subconscious mind to start making major changes to the way you play golf. 

Barrie John’s starting focus is about the importance of having rhythm in your golf game, commonly known as being ‘in the zone’.  Remember the times when everything has worked well at the same time, you hit the ball with no effort, your mindset is calm and relaxed and everything just flows. It’s all down to rhythm.

 That all important but so elusive Rhythm !

Barrie  offers a suggestion for disposing of distracting thoughts that come to your mind when you play golf,’ imagine a bin by the tee where you can drop all your distracting thoughts before you strike the ball’.

There is also a section on putting technique where you picture long putts and putting to a six feet circle around the hole where you want to leave your ball to go down in 2 putts, visualising the path you want the ball to take.
 
The next section leads you to imagine you are in the body of a player you admire, feeling how it feels to swing like they do and seeing shots through their eyes.

You’re then led to mentally practice what you have learnt, feeling how much better things feel, noticing how much more confident you are and how much you are looking forward to your next round of golf.

All in all, I enjoyed the session and look forward to using it again as I know that the more I use it I will be able to use my imagination more vividly and as with all hypnosis sessions the effects will be cumulative in my subconscious mind and as Barrie says ‘ will help me to produce positive and profound changes to my golf game.’

The Great Golf hypnosis download is approximately 24 minutes long and I found it to be very enjoyable and extremely beneficial in helping me to take the right mind set to the course for my next golf game.

As golf players, we are always pushing to perfect our game. It is a continual battle for improvement that seams never ending. Even the professional golfers are constantly working on their game. When you see even the pros struggling to maintain a constant level, that shows you how difficult golf can be.

Why is it that only about 5% of all the golfers in the World can break 70? What is it that those golfers have that we have not got? According to golf manufacturers and their advertising claims, we need the same expensive golf equipment that the pros use to play to their level.

That obviously is marketing hype, as you can now pick up the same driver that a PGA star used last year for under $200. So, many of us do have technologically advanced clubs and golf balls that the pros use; why are we still unable to break 70 or even 80?

For some reason the average golf score has barely changed during the last 30 years. Billions of dollars have been invested in developing new technologically advanced golf balls and clubs. Then add a few billion more on advertising that tells us that we need these expensive clubs and balls to improve.

Today, we can buy clubs that are easier to play, are more forgiving, cavity back and wide sole irons, plus golf balls that can fly a mile in a straight line. Yet the vast majority of golfers are still struggling to break 90! It appears that the perfect golf game can not be bought; not even with the dozens of new golf training aids, modern instruction methods, or the many golf swing guides.

There must be something that the top 5% of golfers know that we don’t. It appears that that “thing” that they possess is mastery of the Mental Game of Golf. That is the missing ingredient that can promote the quickest and most lasting change in any golfer’s game. It is interesting to note that this is the only area that doesn’t cost a penny to use, however hardly anyone uses it.

The mental golf game: Using your mind in a calculated, methodical and focused way is the surest method of improving your game and lowering your scores. Mastering the Inner Game of Golf can do wonders for your game. But you have to understand how to implement the methods.

Once you do, you will have confidence in yourself and your game, have clear focus and mental toughness, be able to control your attention, cure your golf nerves and anxiety, and eliminate anger from your game – amongst other things.

Awareness of the mental game of golf is what separates the rest of us from the top 5% of golfers. You can see it in action on the PGA Tour because all those guys have access to the same equipment, golf swing gurus, and putting gurus. The difference between them comes down to how well they master their mental game of golf during each tournament.

Visibly, at their intensity level and with all the pressure and media reporting, it is hard for them to maintain high levels of concentration and focus day after day, week after week. That is why even the likes of Tiger Woods can not win every major in a year or even dominate the majority of events in a season, every season.

But for weekend golfers like us, understanding and using mental golf techniques can have an immediate and long lasting positive affect on our playing level. It is the quickest way to lower your scores and take your game to the next level. If you would like more information on how to start, then read How to Learn the Mental Game of Golf. You will also find a couple of free reports, Mental Game Tips and Mental Game Self Assessment, that you can download to get you started.
