“David is a great speaker and does a wonderful job making the mental side of golf relatable to golfers of all levels. His approach is very practical and easy to follow and the library of resources is extremely useful! I recommend my students work with David – he bridges the gap between instruction and bringing your game to the course!”
“My work with David has allowed me to grow as a golfer and a person. David has helped me to understand that change happens by hard work, patience and trusting the process. This last year with David has given me important tools to be more thoughtful on and off the golf course, to work through the harder moments and to find joy while playing the game I love.”
“When I first started working with David I was a hot-head on the course, but he turned me into the polar opposite. He helped me figure out mental strategies and techniques to stay calm, focused and play with freedom. I can only thank David for helping me play better golf in tournaments.”
“Working with David has helped me in many ways, from goal setting to being mindful of how I am thinking and feeling during times of pressure, stress, happiness, etc. The things that David has taught me, not only apply to golf, but to every day life, and have helped me grow as a golfer and a person.”
“Working with David has allowed me to completely shift my perspective whilst competing to allow myself to become more mentally tough. My confidence has soared as I have learned how to deal with any negative self talk as well as being able to separate what happens on the golf course from my life outside of golf.”
“Since I started working with David 4 years ago, he has helped me work on my mindset for both on and off the course. As a result, I’ve become a more mentally tough and confident player, which has led to more success in tournaments and more productivity and well-being off the course.”
“Over the last year, David has not only helped me find my game back, but helped me elevate it to new levels. With his online lessons and video calls, I was able to drastically change my approach of the game. My attention is less outcome driven and more process driven now. This has not only helped me reduce the emotional attachment to shots, but it ultimately made me a happier golfer.”
“The mental coaching sessions I’ve done with David have helped me play through some of the biggest moments in my golf career. I wouldn’t have been able to play some of my best golf without him and he has helped me play more relaxed golf and made it more exciting for me.”
“After working with David for a few years now, I can already tell the significant improvement in not just my golf game but in my overall well being too. I used to let my golf scores dictate my life, good or bad, but after my lessons with David, I have gotten to learn and be comfortable with that it is just a game, and life goes on. Subsequently, my scores dropped by 5 shots on average, and I am at much more at peace with myself. Thanks David!”
“The importance of the mental game in golf can’t be overstated and David has been an instrumental part in my mental development as a golfer and individual. Since I began working with David, he has devoted a great deal of time and effort into helping me strive for excellence and achieve my goals. In the past year or so, I can owe a a great deal of my success to the guidance and wisdom he has provided me.”
“Since I realized the importance and starting laying more emphasis on the mental aspect of the game of golf, I have not only lowered my scoring average but also changed my outlook on how to approach each shot. Working with David has helped me neutralize the emotional connection to each shot, leading to better pre- and post-shot routines, shot acceptance and decision making. Lessening the “emotional rollercoasters” therefore contributes towards maintaining a consistent attitude throughout the round. This has let me excel when I am playing well, yet still prevail when I have brought my B-game to a tournament.”
“Since working with David Mackenzie my outlook on golf has completely changed and because of that my success has continued to grow! Instead of measuring my rounds by by score I now measure my rounds by how well my process was and by no coincidence it seems that when my process is better my scores are lower. I am excited to keep working with him and see where this journey takes us.”
