First Tee Jitters

In a resent poll taken on our Instagram account we learned that over 80 percent of you suffer from first tee jitters. It is totally understandable for sure! I have found that the best way to overcome this is to plan! Create a mentally stable pre-shot routine where you change the way you think. First tee jitters come from over valuing the outcome. If you play attention to your pre-shot routine and not outcomes. Concentrate on doing the some things before you hit the ball. Try it! Please leave your comments below!
