Identifying When You Have The Yips
Dr. Patrick Cohn discusses the putting yips, the chipping yips, and the full-swing yips for golfers.
In this video, Dr. Cohn talks about:
How golfers can know when they have the yips and it’s not a mechanical issue.
Can you putt freely in practice but it feels different on the course? Does your mindset change about putting on the course?
You’ll find one big sign that you have the yips.
It feels free on the practice putting green and you can make putts without flinching or stabbing at the ball.
But when you go to the golf course, you feel like a different golfer. It’s no longer free or relaxed.
Your performance drops quickly on the course due to the tension and worry about missing.

What are Golf Psychology Students Saying?
“I wanted to tell you I have broken out of the yips short putt issues. I have won 2 of the last 3 competitions. Right now my putting confidence is sky high. I HAD the putt yips for past 6 years. I contribute the success to two of your drills. First focus hard on the hole, forget about all else. It took awhile to get the 100% focus, but I could see the results coming. Then your advice “Let go and trust your ability.” Immediate result. Wow what a relief. Having putted for so long under yip pressure, I now feel I can be put under extreme pressure to win the club championship. I now look forward to short putts.”

What are our mental coaching students saying?
“I’ve had the yips for 30 years. With the anchor ban, I thought I needed to quit golf. It was frustrating hearing golf experts and commentators state that no amateur was going to quit golf because of the anchoring ban. Obviously, these experts don’t know anything about the yips. I’m so glad I found you. Your drills really helped. It might sound silly, but the biggest thing that helped me is knowing that the yips is mental. It might sound crazy, for someone to have the yips for 30 years, and not know it’s mental. I also believe I know my reason for having the yips, and I see how my insecurities in every day life contributed to the yips. Thank you for your help.”
