Golf Improvement, Is your
Personality in the Way?


Did you know that golf improvement is determined by your personality trait!

How well do you know yourself?

You may be thinking… hmm! I know myself well enough, what has my personality got to do with my quest for golf improvement?

The fact is, every golfer wants to experience improvement, but sadly having the best equipment and taking golf lessons is not always a guarantee for your improvement.

Research has proven that handicaps have not come down in the past 15 years!

For instance, I have found very often in teaching golf that students” tend to get in their own way” when taking a lesson, and when they play. Their minds are not focused on what they are doing.

"Thinking too much" seems to be the common denominator here. Sometimes golf instructors are to blame for this by giving too much information for their student to absorb.

Personally, I have also gone through "getting in my way" and found golf improvement difficult till I came across this wonderful resource-
The mental golf profile.

Let's face it, the biggest frustration we all face as golfers is when our golf swing technique, golf equipment and fitness don’t convert into a sustained improvement on the scorecard!

That missing link can be found in your mental golf improvement.

This excellent resource of golf mental training for improving your mental approach is definitely worth doing.

The philosophy of the profile is quite simply, self knowledge and customization. Not every swing key or club specifications are suitable for everyone. The same holds true for the mental game as well.

Secondly, your mental golf profile will provide the self-knowledge and strategies you need to customize your mental game.

Lastly, repeating the strategies you will help you produce the golf improvement you are looking for,

I could not believe how easy, quick and effective these golf mental training aids in the profile proved to be.

It takes 15 minutes to do and it is online!

My advice is to think carefully before answering the questions, (there are only 5) this will ensure the accuracy of the report.


Background on the mental Profile

The mental golf workshop profile was adapted from the famous DISC profile system, used worldwide by businesses to help employees get to know themselves better to improve their work performance.

The four basic disc styles are: Dominance, Inspiration, Steadiness and Conscientious.

You may not necessarily fall into one category but could fall into a combination category. For example I fall into the Steadiness/Dominance combination style and Arnold Palmer falls into a combination style of Dominance/Inspirational.(This can clearly be seen in what he has done for golf)

What style do you think you fall into??

The Mental Golf Profile will provide, You the answer. Take the Test now!

Persons Behind the Profile

The DISC System was adapted for golf by Bob Foster, a management consultant, and former golf professional and coach at the University of South Carolina.
