Mental Management

This week we will focus on the mental aspect of training. What are we thinking about and how do we get to that "Zen" relaxed moment to release? Practicing techniques away from the range helps with the anxiety when on the range or at competition.
An excellent book to review: Lanny Bashams, "With Winning in Mind: The Mental Management System: An Olympic Champion's Success System."
As we reviewed last week-the best way to begin making a change, is to identify what you want to move toward, and then what it will take to get there.
