How we can 'Battle Back' from adversity – Mark Shervill #377

On today's show we have a wonderful conversation with Mark Shervill a tremendous coach from the hidden gem that is Lilleshall Golf Club in Shropshire Lees meer
I have known Mark for very many years
We first met when he was a PGA Trainee at The Belfry over twenty years ago.
Since then he has spent time evolving himself into a really effective coach
He spent many days with Nick Middleton from Zen Golf on the DP World Tour
His approach is really holistic and embraces all aspects of the Body-Mind system
He and his wife Lisa Shervill, a former Ladies European Tour professional run some fantastic programs at Lilleshall especially focused around junior development
His enthusiasm is infectious
Perhaps the work that gives Mark most pleasure though is his work with ex forces personel in the 'Battle Back' program
Helping ex military men and women get back on track with their lives through the medium of golf.
This is genuine contribution to the game and really makes you think about the sheer privilege we have just to be able to go out and play golf in a beautiful environment
We discuss the importance of creating SHOTS and the sheer joy which can be gained in turning an image in your head to the reality of a beautifully struck shot
Over 50 of Mark's pupils have now completed the Mobilise Your Swing Programme that Mark, Lisa and Aaron have created together combining physical, technical and mental aspects of golf with great results in all of these individuals from Junior to Senior Golfers.
This great success has led them to form the Shervill Golf Performance website where you can access the Mobilise Your Swing programme for yourself to help your body make the best golf swings possible!
They also have a Speed & Power gym based programme that is proving to be a huge success, as well as The Junior Foundations programme which is ideal for giving young golfers the athletic foundations that they will need now and in the future.

What is causing more people to get the yips
What is the mind actually trying to achieve with the yips?
Is it technique or is it mental?

Having a FLEXIBLE framework
How more and more information can only cause more damage

Playing from a 'safe place'
Stop trying to FEEL better and get better at FEELING
What the 'fear' is really trying to do for us

I will be happy when …… Karl Morris #363
20 juni 2025 · 16 min
On today's show, we have a solo run touching on a subject, very dear to my heart, the concept of 'I will be happy when' Lees meer
How we all fall into the trap of putting off our enjoyment of life for for some perceived moment off in the future, when the stars will align everything will come together, and I will be happy ever after as a result of achieving X Y or Z.
You can fill in the blanks that may be winning a major tournament. It may be winning the club championship or breaking 100 for the first time never mind creates the stories of perceived happiness off in the future, and it can be so destructive to her actual enjoyment of the game right now. Not only destructive. It actually creates a lot of tension in the system in extreme cases real fear and anxiety. Even the great Rory McIlroy seems to have fallen into the trap of this after winning the US Masters, and seemingly afterwards falling into some kind of malaise and unhappiness.
He is human like the rest of us within this, but I feel there is a way out of this by really understanding the value of seen through the illusion and then falling in love with the idea of being on the path to mastery. Karl shares some key insights. How are you can embrace this philosophy to liberate your own game, and get so much closer to your true potential

Bringing the Mental and Technical Game Together – Markus Westerberg #362
13 juni 2025 · 46 min
The Golfers SIXTH SENSE Lees meer
On today's show, we have a brilliant conversation with top Swedish PGA professional Marcus Westerberg. Marcus is a good friend of the show I've been previously been on a couple of times in the past to discuss his work. He wrote an absolutely brilliant book called the 'Golfers Sixth Sense.'
This book is about a deep understanding of the mind body connection in Golf and how it is foolish to try to separate the two. Marcus is a really deep thinker about the game, and he's had some incredible success in Sweden with his coaching and is very highly regarded throughout the world.
In the show we discuss the importance of having the correct concepts of impact understanding focus of attention, and perhaps, above anything else that needs to build a pre-shot routine that is unique to you as a golfer that delivers on a regular basis, the best of your capabilities
We also go into detail about how Marcus has evolved as a coach with his deep dive into the science of motor learning and skill acquisition, and how you can get much more out of your practice sessions and training. If you fully understand the mind body synergy. Perhaps most importantly, we talk in depth about how a simple misconception about impact can have such a long-term and profound impact on your game in a detrimental way. Change your concepts change your game.
Enjoy a great conversation with a great coach, Marcus Westerberg.

What can we all learn from Rory's experience? #359
23 mei 2025 · 1 uur 1 min
It was a tournament like no other with incredible drama that put is all through a rollercoaster of emotions as Rory secured the Green Jacket and became a member of that most exclusive club of golf's Grand Slam winners. Lees meer
Yet in the euphoria of the win and the endless post tournament analysis did we all miss something in terms of Rory's response to the win on the final green?
Top coach and good friend of the show Garret Kramer thinks so
In this fascinating conversation we go a good bit deeper than what may or may not have been happening on the surface
Among many other things we discuss:
What was REALLY going on in that last round at Augusta?
What can we all learn from Rory's experience?
The reaction to the winning putt
The outpouring of relief as opposed to joy
The nature of SEEKING and what it does to performance
Seeking identity and worthiness through objects in the materialistic world
When we stop seeking we experience relief
The seemingly impossible variation in the shots Rory played in the final round
The nature of LETTING GO
How letting go affects our physical movement
The 'veiling of consciousness' when we seek outside validation
Why the 'pot of gold' isn't worth as much as we think it is
Finding out what is truly important to us

Why practice needs to be FUN and the MAGIC of the Low Point– Andreas Kali #353
4 april 2025 · 53 min
On today's show we have a special coach in the shape of Denmark's Andreas Kali who has overseen the development of numerous top players in Denmark. Due to his incredible results with so many players he has become one of the hottest coaches in golf Lees meer
We had a really wonderful conversation about the philosophy behind the success he has been getting in Denmark
In particular about the development of the players a people not just golfers
The need to create an environment of fun and learning in practice.
Not just fun in the conventional sense but the fun of being REALLY engaged in the training you are doing
Andreas talked about some of the setback he encountered as a player and how he wants to help his own players short circuit that learning
He talked about the THREE CORE elements that drive all of his lessons and the training environments
Does this get the ball CLOSER to the target
Does this PREVENT injury
Does this enhance the LOVE of the game
If your coaching is not addressing those needs then is it REALLY making a difference?
We talked about LOW POINT in the swing and how this simple focus of attention can make such a huge difference to most golfers enjoyment of the game but also their performance
Keeping players in the game for longer
Not everyone is going to be a champion but can we keep players engaged in a way that doesn't threaten their identity as a human being
You will find this conversation fascinating and you will begin to see why Andreas has been so incredibly successful with so many young players

There are some challenging concepts in here that have the potential to make a really BIG difference to your game and indeed your life.
In the session we talked about:

What can you SEE, HEAR or FEEL?
Having the DISTINCTION between the TWO WORLDS of INTERNAL and EXTERNAL

The absolute 'rules of the road' with swing changes
The need for slow motion swings and FEELING the extremes either side of correct
Why information alone will never create swing changes
What is the correct 'dose' of practice
Making the movement patterns UNCONSCIOUS
The difference between working on the swing and PERFORMING the swing on the course
The need to develop a FOCAL POINT on the course
Developing a 'basket' of focal points to take out onto the course

What is the essential nature of the unconscious mind? The 'watchdog' of the unconscious mind.
Why the unconscious mind often 'believes' a yip is actually helping
The opportunity to 'sit' in the presence of a great coach interacting with other coaches and developing so many key concepts and ideas

Deepening your level of ACCEPTANCE – Raymond Prior PhD #350
14 maart 2025 · 49 min
The ultimate mental game skill Lees meer
Today on the Mind Caddie we welcome back my good friend and colleague Dr Raymond Prior.
Raymond is one of the top performance consultants in the world. He works with some of the very best golfers in the world on the PGA Tour as well as athletes from many other sports and also actors and entertainers.
He is the author of a wonderful book 'Golf Beneath the surface'
We also co contributed to a great program called:
'Stable Confidence'
The foundations of stable confidence are a willingness to accept ALL and EVERY possible outcome you may face in a round or in a tournament.
In today's conversation we deepen the understanding of developing the skill of ACCEPTANCE
We discuss what acceptance is and perhaps more importantly what it isn't.
It is not giving up or resignation
It is not being 'happy' with poor outcomes
It is not feeling comfortable all the time
It is a willingness to embrace the REALITY of the game
Why your brain is 'primed' to focus on avoidance
Your brain doesn't care about golf it cares about SURVIVAL
How can we begin to work with and understand this?
How can we actually develop acceptance skills? Yoga and cold water, what is the link?
Why being in a state of pursuit is so important
What is the flow state actually like?
This conversation WILL really make a difference to your game. It is a wonderful discussion about the crucial skill of ACCEPTANCE

Pain and your Brain – Jim Prussack #344
31 januari 2025 · 49 min
A potential way back to playing with less pain Lees meer
On today's Mind Caddie we go in a slightly different direction but nevertheless one that I am sure will apply to so many people.
PAIN!!
A lot of us are playing golf in some form of pain or other
It may be acute pain or chronic pain
Chronic pain is at epidemic proportions
If you have had pain for over 6 months it is now a chronic issue
And as todays guest 'The Pain PT' Jim Prussack explains it is not as simple and as straightforward as we may believe.
All pain is generated by the brain which doesn't mean that the 'pain is in your head'
It is real and it hurts
But as Jim wonderfully explains when you understand the role of the brain in pain you can go in a different direction.
Much pain is a result of the brains PERCEPTION
Feeling of threat
When we reduce the threat we reduce the pain reaction
So much of this ties in with what we have explored on the Mind Caddie about the perception of threat and performance
You will find this interview fascinating and it may just give you some hope of different way to approach your pain

How to Unf__k your Golf Swing – Cameron Strachan
24 januari 2025 · 42 min
Today on the podcast we are joined by author and coach Cameron Strachan who has written the provocatively titled book 'How to Unf__k your Golf Swing' Lees meer
He has made it his life's work to demystify the golf swing and get players away from too much technical thinking
It may not be for everyone but for many it will be a refreshing departure from the barrage of technical positions and theory
How can we make learning the golf swing much simpler? This question has driven Cameron in his quest for years
How can we give golfers the smallest amount of information that has the biggest effect?
The technical overload we are all suffering from
Why the default is to seek out more information
We are designed to use tools skilfully yet we often ignore that fact
The biomechanical research on efficient movement
What if the game was just like making an underarm throw?
Would you feel capable of doing that?
How much would that simplify things?
Make a throwing motion with the club
How simplification increases feel
As we discussed Cameron firmly believes that the game of golf COULD be as simple as throwing a ball
If the game becomes more simple then you are free to focus on other things like the golf course and actually enjoying your experience
