What happens when the interviewer becomes the interviewee?

In this special episode of The Mind Caddie, Jim Waldron turns the tables on Karl Morris for a fascinating conversation about Karl's own journey through golf, coaching and the mental game.

Karl reveals how a 30-year struggle with his own golf ultimately transformed his approach to performance coaching — and why he believes golfers often look for answers in completely the wrong place.

In this episode:

  • Karl's journey from teenage golfer to professional coach

  • Why technical thinking can actually damage your golf

  • His work with players including Louis Oosthuizen and Lee Westwood

  • Why observation is the most important principle in the mental game

  • How acceptance and gratitude can reduce the threat of golf

  • Why creating your own definition of success could transform your game

A revealing conversation about golf psychology, confidence, performance and what it really takes to play better golf.

Perhaps the answer isn't another swing thought. Perhaps it's learning to stop thinking and start observing.

This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course.

You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle.
