Episode notes

There's a hole at almost every course that gets in your head before you even tee it up. Usually there's a white stake involved.

In Episode 2 of The Golfer's Mind Lab, BJ breaks down exactly what happens in your brain when you see out of bounds - why the harder you try to avoid it, the more likely you are to find it - and introduces the Target Lock, a three-step attention technique used by elite performers to redirect focus from trouble to the target.

This week's challenge: run the Target Lock on every shot where OB is in play and track where the ball goes versus where your attention was.

Plus: BJ's personal on-course recap from his own round testing the technique on a course with plenty of white stakes to work with.
