A bad shot is rarely the biggest problem. It is often the next shot that matters.

After making a mistake, many golfers want to make amends straight away. They take more risks, go for the flag, try to pull off a heroic shot – and that is precisely what suddenly turns a single mistake into a whole chain of errors.

In this video, I’ll show you why one mistake turns into three, how to spot the compensation trap, and how to make calm, clear and steady decisions after a bad shot.
You’ll learn a simple 20-second rule for your next round:

Assess the situation. Check your emotions. Assess the risk. Make a new decision.
If you want to practise exactly these kinds of situations directly on the course, the Golf Performance Weekends 2026 in Westendorf are designed for just that: real playing situations, clear decisions, mental stability and performance training on the course.
