Bryson is an ex-Staley Falcon and currently on the roster at William Jewell, where he recently received All-Region honors and made his first appearance in the NCAA Division II Tournament. Caden is....well, c'mon, we all know who Caden Mickelson is! Good to see a couple of Northland boys dominating! Good luck today gentlemen!

Why don’t we just add NCAA Division II PING All-Region honoree to the list. Announced by the @GolfCoachesAssn

@mfinneygolf It’s a total game changer!!

Fenris/Motion2Coach is in the markerless 3D game along with Sportsbox, XView, Trackman, and Goltec. Getting crowed for sure. However, one of the main things that separates Motion2Coach from the pack is the fact that their engineers have contacted Apple and have been allowed to “upgrade” the usually untouchable iPhone slow motion video settings. If you use the Motion2Coach app to suck in your video, you get true 240 frame per second video as opposed to the current unconverted 60 fps video that they quote as 240 fps. The sharpness of the fast moving shaft and head nearing impact is obvious. In addition to this improved frame rate, the app also allows you to adjust shutter speeds and ISO settings that can get you much better clarity in every imaginable light setting from inside to overcast days. If you’re in the market for markerless 3D captures to help your instruction, Motion2Coach would be a good place to start your search. Jon Sinclair has been telling me about this camera upgrade for 3 months and I finally got to see it in person. It’s impressive.

Thank you to Bill Althaus for naming me the Eastern Jackson County Player of the Year!

Congratulations to Bailey Burkett on signing her national letter of intent today, continuing her golf and academic career at the University of Louisville! Bailey is a fantastic golfer and an even better person! Good luck Bailey, we are so proud of you! @LNEaglePride

In 2012 Novak Djokovic had a breakthrough in his mental game. His insight (and what it can do for you): As he began playing on the biggest stage - he’d have doubts at the worst moments. Match point. Self Doubt. Pre-breakthrough, he saw these thoughts as a major problem...As bad...As something he needed to eliminate. “I used to freeze up whenever I made a mistake.” His breakthrough - accepting he could not eliminate his negative thoughts and self-doubt ...Even at the worst times on the court. Old Mindset: I need to improve so that negative thoughts NEVER arise on the court. If doubt occurs, something is wrong. New Mindset: Because I am human, I expect negative thoughts to happen when the pressure is highest. When they arise I just use my tools to manage them skillfully. Now he EXPECTS doubt to arise on the biggest stage. His insight: “Everyone goes through these thought processes of self-doubt. I don’t think it is particularly bad. I used to think it was bad. So I was trying to ignore it or shut it down.” “But the major transformation in a positive way for me started when I acknowledged and accepted those thoughts as part of me.” Novak’s radical shift was to stop trying to eliminate negative thoughts. But instead to develop strategies that acknowledge his humanity and would be effective when they would inevitably arrive. Takeaway 1: Even the best in the world face self-doubt, often at the most inconvenient times. The goal isn’t eliminating these voices - it is finding tools to deal with them skillfully. Takeaway 2: Conscious breathing can be an anchor to come into the present moment when negative thoughts arrive at inconvenient moments. Practicing breathwork in low-stakes moments allows one to use this tool to move beyond negative thinking when it matters most. Novak: “Now when I blow a serve or shank a backhand, I still get those flashes of self-doubt, but I know how to handle them.” Mental fitness is a state of readiness. Readiness is judged by how quickly can you recover... It’s not about staying perfect. It’s about practicing to be prepared.

Great job ladies 👏🏻👊🏻@JaelynHarrison3 @hearst_libby for beating Blue Springs!! @LHSBlueJays @LHSJAYS @golf @ShoalCreekGolf @Brenndan_Cooper

Shit happens – a lot. It is how you manage the shit that determines your future. Turn it into fertilizer.

Player: “Got any tips on how to fix this?” Me: “Yes…stop listening to tips” #fixtherootissue

Frustrated? Working insanely long hours? Burnt out? Take a second. Breathe. And remember why you started. What is your drive? What are your goals? Then get after it.
