You want to play better,  - and you KNOW you can. But you are a bit worn down by the struggle. And often, golf is not nearly as fun as you as you would like it to be.

You know there is a mental dimension to performing at your best on the course - but you don’t know where to start. 

I have spent 30 years studying human performance  - and much of the past ten years focused on the psychology of golf with my friends in the amazing Graves Golf Academy community.

I can help you see this game in new ways so that you can play better, struggle less and enjoy the game more. 

 

My desire is to learn from the best.

 

And then, build the insightful learning experiences and coaching programs that create transformations in your game.

Coaching with Paul

My clients are creating lasting changes in their games and in their lives:

 

“I am very thankful to know Paul and have him as my performance coach.
The process started with my desire to improve my golf game, but the program was much more than I ever imagined.  I did not realize how my inner dialogue was affecting my overall life. Paul helped me understand myself better and develop an action plan that continues to evolve as I evolve. 
 I really enjoy our conversations; he is a great listener and he has helped me get the most out of myself.  He gave me the tools to help manage family, work and of course golf!
Thank you, Paul for helping to enhance my performance energy and my life!”

 

Dr Vic Kalman, Orthopedic Surgeon/Sports Medicine

My clients are creating big changes in their games and in their lives:

 

Paul has helped me to enjoy competition.  Not as something where I try to defeat another, but as an event where I experience the joy of the moment.  Working with Paul has helped me to avoid paralysis by analysis.  He has helped me to enjoy “annoying” golfers who in the past would have affected my game.  Paul has helped me to enjoy all my moments on the course, even when my results are not what I would have previously expected.
However, as important as these things can be for many golfers, Paul has helped me (and those who interact with me) in more significant ways.  What I have learned from working with Paul Monahan has helped my Personal, Family, Social, and Professional aspects of life.

“Under Paul's guidance you no longer have to wander around aimlessly. He will help you determine exactly what you are trying to accomplish and he will help you develop a plan and system to achieve your goal. He will help you remove any obstacles and put you on the fast track to success.  There's a solution to every problem and together you'll find it.
