Negative Self-Talk Counter
Track every moment of negative self-talk during a round. The goal is to recognise unhelpful thoughts early, reset quickly and gradually reduce their frequency.
Difficulty levels
Setup & execution
Play your round as normal, logging every negative thought with "Negative thought" and every successful reframe with "Caught & reset" straight after. At this level, start noticing patterns — is it always after a bad tee shot? A three-putt? Comparing yourself to your playing partners? You don't need to log the trigger, but start paying attention to it mentally.
Goal
Follow roughly half of your logged negative thoughts with a reset. Consistency across all 18 holes matters more than a perfect front nine followed by a sloppy back nine.
A reset doesn't have to be elaborate — a single breath and a specific next-shot target ("green with a soft draw") is enough to count.
Scoring options
Pick how you are rewarded. Each option records different outcomes and feeds different insights.
Classic
Catching it and resetting scores. Noticing alone costs nothing.
Reset Rate
A reset pays double; a thought you let stand costs you.

Play 9 holes with a par-2 target per hole using only your short game, simulating decision-making pressure on every shot.
Course ManagementFairway Decision Ladder
Compare your driver against a safer tee club across wide, standard and narrow fairway corridors — from 15 to 50 yd depending on difficulty. Hit five shots with each club at every width, then see which club finds more fairways and learn when the driver's extra distance is worth the added dispersion.
Course ManagementDecision Quality Score
Rate important decisions as green, yellow or red based on target selection, club choice and risk. Judge the quality of the decision, not the outcome of the shot.
