Episode #264: Mike Booker - How to Master Tournament Golf
Mike Booker (author of the Tournament Golfers Playbook) is back on Wicked Smart Golf for part two (episode 125 was our first interview) to share more about playing well in golf tournaments. He's not only an author of one of my favorite mental golf books, but also a very successful golfer himself.
As mentioned on his website, "Mike Booker is well known in Texas amateur golf and beyond. He has won a record number of Texas Golf Association events and multiple Texas Player of the Year distinctions. In 2019, he was inducted into the Texas Golf Hall of Fame, joining the likes of Jackie Burke and Ben Hogan."
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why you should never set score goals before tournaments.
- His crazy story with Paul Azinger during his PGA Tour career.
- The real reason why all golfers should compete in tournaments.
- Why your pre-shot routine is your "safehouse" on the golf course.
- The difference between a tournament golfer vs. a golfer who plays in tournaments.
