PGA certified instructor Aimee Cho details the 3 Rs post-shot routine (Replay, Remind, Release) designed to help golfers maintain mental composure on the course. By reviewing mistakes objectively, establishing a clear commitment for the next shot, and releasing physical tension through breathing, golfers can prevent one bad shot from ruining their round.
Replay: Objectively analyze why the poor shot occurred without dwelling on negative thoughts.
Remind: Make a concrete commitment for next time starting with 'Next time I will...' to reset your focus.
Release: Inhale deeply through the nose and exhale tension through your mouth, hands, and feet to reset mentally.
Practice this routine until it takes only about 10 seconds seamlessly after every shot.
