[…] This past weekend I attended a three day Vision54 course in San Diego and was refreshed on the beauty of their program as well as invigorated and inspired by them once again. I attended a two day course of theirs in Denver earlier this summer; for an intro into what Vision54 is and about that trip click here: http://thedanplan.com/a-transformative-time-and-things-begin-again/ […]

Thanks for your contribution Aaron, that is my stance in a nutshell. What Dan is doing has always been supported and interesting to me. My path to golf success is on a different notion with coaching and training all supplementary to getting out and playing and winning competitions.

It has only been the past month that the difference in US club golf and Australian club golf was laid open. Our (Australian) club golf is totally different with handicapping all based on a golfers performance in competition play. It is harder for Dan to get access and play in regular golf competition. Ghat is where I see the gap in the Plan’s success there is not a competition section that is measuring ‘winning’ performance against other competitors.

I’ve said this before, but I’m not sure where Dan is going to play professionally in tournaments. He’s reaching that place where despite the endless hours of coaching/practicing on both the physical and mental parts of the game his body is going to start breaking down. There are some mini tours out there (i.e. NGA Hooters) and the stepping stones to reach the web.com, apga, epga, or jpga tours. He’s only now playing amateur events. I just don’t think he’s ever going to make that leap to be a “successful” professional Short term, can I see him doing a few events, probably. Long term, I am still on the don’t see it happening. There’s a lot of young kids who have played junior pga, college, etc, that he needs to jump over in being able to perform in a tournament setting over a 2 – 4 day event.

If Dan does not know, where to find or learn competition in golf after 4000 + hours, he is really in trouble. It is not in books or coaching seminars or on the range. What all of those things are for is to prepare a golf game to play in a competition. They are secondary to the point of golf, winning competitions.

Had the same question a while back and was told to start with “Play your best golf now.” It seems like a really great approach and I’ve had good luck with the part I’ve implemented.

Hey Dan, glad to hear Vision54 is helping your game. Have you read all of their books and if so, which one do you think would be the best introduction to their methods? Thanks.

Good to read that the seminar has settled your golf mind and focus. I still see your attitude to competition as a fault. Reading one of your past posts you comment that club rounds are good practise. Do you win or make a top 3 finish regularly? If you don’t think that winning club comp matters that is major golf mistake.
