The Simple Two-Question Pre-Shot Routine That FINALLY Helped Me Break 90

Cameron O'Neal demonstrates a simple two-question mental pre-shot routine based on the book 'Golf Beneath the Surface' by Raymond Prior. By asking if a good shot is possible and accepting that a bad outcome might occur, golfers can play with more commitment and less fear. This framework helped O'Neal stay calm under pressure and successfully break 90 on camera.

• Ask 'Is it possible to hit a good shot?' and 'Is it possible I don't get the outcome I want?' before every swing.
• Practice radical acceptance: a bad shot or missed fairway is just a situation to be dealt with, not a personal failure.
• Use your breath as an anchor to return to the present moment when you feel rushed or frustrated by slow play.
• Shift from a 'survival mindset' (trying to avoid bad shots) to a 'commitment mindset' (focusing on the target).
• Ignore external validation; the opinions of others (or commenters) do not define your skill or worth as a golfer.
