Dear Golfer, What should you do when you’re 2 shots ahead with only 3 left to play? Do you: 1. Preserve your lead, 2. Get aggressive and try to win, or 3. Forget about the score and play the course to the best of your ability. The answer? None of the above. Your best bet is a combination of 2 and 3. In other words: play aggressively and you’ll soon forget the score and play your best golf. When leading a tournament by 2 with only 3 shots left, Tiger Woods tells himself he wants to win by 4 shots. This helps him push himself to success instead of holding on to the lead.1 Staying aggressive at crunch time is easier if you COMMIT to it before the game. Pro Steve Lowery knows this well. He says, “You have a choice in every tee box. You are either going to guide it out there or you are going to tee it up and rip it.” 2 Another note: Most golfers don’t mentally prepare for even five minutes before they play. And, if they do, they only focus on technical things such as how to adjust their swing. They don’t realize that all the adjustments in the world won’t help them if they aren’t relaxed on the course. (Remember, the #1 cause of error in all sports, including golf, is overtightness). That’s where my ebook “Breathrough Golf! Lower Your Score Now Using the Mental Toughness Secrets of Professional Athletes” comes in. It’s filled with dozens and dozens of techniques for instantly lowering your score without making any technical changes in your game at all. And it comes with TWO great bonus books that aren’t available anywhere else. Check it out here: http://www.golfgamesecrets.com/sales/ I’ll talk to you again soon. Your friend, Lisa Brown
