Today on to the Brain Booster we welcome an extra special guest from the US in Phil Blackmar.

Phil had a successful career on the PGA Tour including three tournament victories.

The Greater Hartford Open, The Provident Classic and the Shell Houston Open were all victories achieved by winning a play off.

The Provident Classic play off was against one of the game’s true legends and tragic losses Payne Stewart.

In the show Phil describes the intriguing mental game tool he used the week of his victory to turn his game around.

He then went on to play on the Champions Tour winning his first event the AT&T Championship in 2009. At the weekend he went 36 holes without making a bogey to secure victory.

Standing at 6ft 7in Phil is one of the tallest players to have played the PGA Tour

After his playing career he went on to be a very popular analyst and on course presenter for the GOLF Channel

During our time together Phil gave some wonderful insights to his development as a player.

How he fell into the trap of being overly concerned with swing mechanics and the mental trap of perfectionism.

The importance of the shot creating the swing in the moment

How to be able to MANAGE and ADAPT in the moment with what you have today

We also discussed ‘feeling good’ to ‘play good’ as opposed to waiting for the golf ball to make you feel a certain way.

The relationship to the game and what Phil would have done differently

How for a period of time his enjoyment of the game was taken away

In his time Phil played with some of the greats of the game such as Jack Nicklaus and Lee Trevino but he makes a special mention around the legend that was Arnold Palmer and the incredible aura he had.

The great Jack Nicklaus take on ADAPTABILITY and being able to adjust in the moment

The development of Tiger Woods. How he trained to develop his mind with Dr Jay Brunza with what is known as ‘situational training’

The use of hypnosis and meditation

The blending of both ART and SCIENCE to maximise your game
