Neil feels that players need to learn more about the performance of golf rather than perfecting their technique on the driving range, therefore a large percentage of his coaching takes place on the golf course. This way he can make precise suggestions to improve your game, based on what he sees where it matters most, on the field of play. This means understanding the mental game, course/game management, club/shot selection and of course improving your technique.

Steve qualified as a Hypnotherapist/ Psychotherapist in 2000, after developing an interest in the use of Hypnosis & NLP for sports performance.
In 2003 Steve teamed up with Neil Plimmer and formed OpenMindGolf.
