Discover how working with a mental coach like Laura Scott helped him manage frustration and obsessiveness, turning golf into a true mental refuge. We explore how course management, realistic goals, and simplicity in tools like rangefinders have radically improved his game—a journey anyone fighting perfectionism or mental barriers can learn from.
