How we can 'Battle Back' from adversity – Mark Shervill #377

Author: Karl Morris October 3, 2025 Duration: 51:09

On today's show we have a wonderful conversation with Mark Shervill a tremendous coach from the hidden gem that is Lilleshall Golf Club in Shropshire

I have known Mark for very many years

We first met when he was a PGA Trainee at The Belfry over twenty years ago.

Since then he has spent time evolving himself into a really effective coach

He spent many days with Nick Middleton from Zen Golf on the DP World Tour

His approach is really holistic and embraces all aspects of the Body-Mind system

He and his wife Lisa Shervill, a former Ladies European Tour professional run some fantastic programs at Lilleshall especially focused around junior development

His enthusiasm is infectious

Perhaps the work that gives Mark most pleasure though is his work with ex forces personel in the 'Battle Back' program

Helping ex military men and women get back on track with their lives through the medium of golf.

This is genuine contribution to the game and really makes you think about the sheer privilege we have just to be able to go out and play golf in a beautiful environment

We discuss the importance of creating SHOTS and the sheer joy which can be gained in turning an image in your head to the reality of a beautifully struck shot

Over 50 of Mark's pupils have now completed the Mobilise Your Swing Programme that Mark, Lisa and Aaron have created together combining physical, technical and mental aspects of golf with great results in all of these individuals from Junior to Senior Golfers.

This great success has led them to  form the Shervill Golf Performance website where you can access the Mobilise Your Swing programme for yourself to help your body make the best golf swings possible!

They also have a Speed & Power gym based programme that is proving to be a huge success, as well as The Junior Foundations programme which is ideal for giving young golfers the athletic foundations that they will need now and in the future.

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. 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. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. 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. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
