Pro Mental Coach Launches Interactive Mental Coaching Program
Pro Mental Coach Launched As Golf's First And Only Interactive Mental Coaching Program That Revolutionizes Training (HOLLYWOOD, FL) - Brain Center International (BCI) - creator of science-based interactive brain fitness programs - introduces Pro Mental Coach, golf's first mental coaching software created to help players master the game, play smarter and lower scores.
Part of the new state-of-the-art technology at the PGA Center for Golf Learning and Performance at PGA Village, in Port St. Lucie, FL, Pro Mental Coach independently assesses mental skills and customizes a training program fitting each user's needs. PC and Mac compatible, it features scientifically-proven exergames that are fun and easy. These build the "brain muscle," helping create an "in the zone" mental state through improved focus, confidence, motivation, stress management, endurance and recovery from bad shots.
"It's a fact that golf is 90 percent in your head, and the outcome of each round is usually determined by how a player manages the mental game," says Dr. Stephane Bergeron, Founder of BCI. "Our software helps golfers train the part of their game that's been holding them back, from the comfort and privacy of home, 24/7, no appointment necessary!"
Pro Mental Coach ($139.95) is powered by a proprietary Dynamic Intelligence System. This breakthrough neuroscience technology was developed by BCI in collaboration with medical centers. It is used in clinical research funded by National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Dramatically different from books and DVDs, Pro Mental Coach continuously interacts with users and adjusts exergame difficulty levels in real time according to performance. This personalizes each training session, creating a fully customized regimen to deliver maximum benefits in the shortest period of time.
"The exergames featured in Pro Mental Coach replicate on-course stress, allowing golfers and their instructors to learn what areas of the mental game are strong and train those that need it," says Joe Hallett, coach of LPGA Tour star Stacy Lewis and a GOLF Magazine Top 100 Teacher. "An hour a week is all it takes to effectively manage tough times, play better and enjoy the game more."
"The PGA Center for Golf Learning and Performance is excited to integrate Pro Mental Coach into its golf instruction program, as mental game training should be part of every golfer's routine," says Bob Baldassari, PGA Senior Director, Player Development and PGA General Manager of the PGA Center for Golf Learning and Performance. "This innovative approach will be a special part of our curriculum, in addition to our focus on the latest in technology, equipment, physical fitness and on-course performance."
Unique features of Pro Mental Coach include:
Assessment and full diagnostic of a user's mental game strengths and weaknesses
Customized training program that matches users' skills
Tracking and evaluation of performance from each training session
Ability for PGA Professionals to access a student's mental game profile

Zen Golf: Mastering the Mental Game
Vijay Singh, Masters and PGA Champion, says, "ZEN GOLF is the best book there is for connecting golf and the mind together. It's for everyone, and you're going to enjoy it. I keep it in my golf bag and take it with me everywhere." Charles Howell III says, "The techniques in ZEN GOLF for working with negative thoughts are better than any other psychological approach." In chapters such as "Never Keep More Than a Hundred Thoughts in Your Mind During Your Swing", "Isn't Where You Have to Play It From Punishment Enough?" and "How to Enjoy a Bad Round of Golf", the Dr. Joe Parent, a PGA TOUR Instructor, guides golfers with simple yet powerful techniques to prepare for, execute, and, equally important, respond to the results of any golf shot. The author draws on his teaching experience and sense of humor to offer special methods that have led to amazing improvements in the games of professionals and amateurs alike. By applying classic insights and stories from the Buddhist tradition to the challenges of golf, ZEN GOLF shows you how to make your mind an ally instead of an enemy: how to stay calm, clear the interference that leads to poor shots, and eliminate bad habits and mental mistakes. Clear, concise, and enlightening, this book introduces a unique perspective combining modern psychology, Buddhist wisdom and professional golf instruction. Zen Golf shapes ancient philosophies into new teachings, leading golfers to the effortless focus and unconditional confidence of being in "the zone." Price: $17.95

Mental Mondays: Pick A Target
On every shot, be certain to pick a target. If you do not have a target, you can be absolutely sure that you will not hit it. Failing to aim at a specific location no doubt accounts for why—even on the widest fairways, and with the largest of greens—so many amateurs spray the ball wildly.
I once read a story in which Ben Hogan asked a caddy where he should aim on his tee shot. The caddy pointed out a couple of trees in the distance. “Aim for those trees,” he said. “Which one?” the Hawk asked.
Hogan knew that aiming in a general direction, rather than at a precise target, was asking for trouble. I’m surprised he didn’t ask “which branch.” The Hawk was nothing if not precise.
Imitate the Hawk by choosing a precise target on every shot. Don’t just aim “at the middle of the fairway” or “at the green.” If you’re a high handicapper, you’re already missing a lot of fairways and greens, so clearly aiming at them isn’t doing the job.
For full tee shots, pick a spot in the fairway defined by a shadow, or an off-colored patch of grass. Then pick a smaller portion of that area. Divide again if possible. That’s your target.
On approach shots, don’t automatically choose the flag as your target. If you actually land the ball on target, it’s going to release and roll to the back of the green away from the flag. And too often, the flag is in a sucker position.
Pay close attention to the next televised PGA Tour event. Notice how often the players land the ball in a spot away from the hole, only to have it roll to within inches. It’s no accident. They were aiming for that precise spot, knowing it would roll from there.
Just as with a shot from the tee box, on approach shots, you should choose as narrowly defined a target as possible. Pick a mark if possible; otherwise, focus on a spot and burn its location into your brain.
Picking a target is just as important around the green as it is from the tee box or fairway. It’s also a easier because you’re a lot closer. Aim for a dent, or even a recognizable blade of grass at the location where you want the ball to land and begin its roll toward the hole.
Having a precise target helps your game on several levels. First, it’s necessary for proper alignment. You need to set up with your clubface on a line with the target, and your feet and shoulders parallel to that. None of that is possible without a precise target.
Second, having a precise target forces you to think about your goal. You’re not just chunking the ball down the course. You want to place each shot with an eye to the one after that. It’s not enough to land your tee shot somewhere in the fairway. You want it on the fairway in a position that maximizes your chances on the next swing.
And finally, on a more metaphysical level, focusing on a precise location allows your subconscious to come into play. Your body will try to do what the brain wants.
