David MacKenzie is a Mental Coach and the founder of Golf State of Mind. He currently works with golfers on the PGA Tour, Web.com Tour, European Tour, Challenge Tour, LPGA and LET, along with many elite juniors and amateur golfers of all levels.
Throughout David’s playing career, he learned quickly how attitude, self-belief, focus and mental toughness affect performance in golf. He knew that was the major difference between his average and great rounds. But the question was: “How does one improve these mental skills and achieve “the zone” more often?”
While studying at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, David began in-depth research into sports psychology and how elite performers apply their minds to practice and play. He interviewed hundreds of elite golfers and sports psychologists. He shared what he discovered via his website, “Golf State of Mind” and it quickly resonated with golfers of all levels. Golf State of Mind is now the most popular resource for mental coaching for golf on the web, with over 350 articles published. David has also been published in Golf Digest, Golf WRX and Golf Tips Magazine.
David is able to effectively communicate the mental and emotional process that elite players are able to achieve on the course, which helps them succeed. Although there are fundamentals to his approach, all players are different in what they need to focus on during a round and what brings out their best performances. For this reason, the Golf State of Mind is a “player-centric approach” that finds the best process for each individual.
David now has over 10 years of experience working as a mental coach for golf. His mental coaching system is taught one on one (in person or remotely), in a group setting, and via his digital mental game training products and books. His system develops mental toughness, improves emotional control and teaches golfers how to stay focused on what’s most important to maximize their chance of success.

Gary Wolstenholme is a sporting legend, and the last of a dying breed - the career amateur golfer.
He has played in the Walker Cup six times, represented England on no less than 218 occasions, won the Amateur Championship twice, and has been head to head with Tiger Woods...and beaten him.
He has won on every continent and played with legends of the game - such as Palmer, Nicklaus and Ballesteros. While many of the amateurs he played with came from wealthy families, Gary did not. They drove to tournaments in expensive new cars and stayed in five-star hotels; he got the bus or walked miles to the venue with hid clubs on his back, staying at the cheapest bed and breakfast. If there was free food available at the clubhouse, Gary would try to have breakfast, lunch and dinner on site so that he wouldn't have to worry about paying for a meal.
It has been a dream to feature Gary, ( a personal hero of mine) I hope you enjoy episode 25 with Gary.kia kaha

"Players will tend to rely on certain skill sets more than others. Making sure you are hitting into areas of your game where you are the strongest at is vital.

The theme of this talk:
Reading a putt is often best done intuitively and seen from the far side of the hole for determining the amount of break combined with the speed of the putt. So the same is true for life and is, in fact, an approach applicable for every situation in life.
From playing in the Open Championship, Walker Cups and working with the best in business all around the world.
