The Best Golf Podcast to Help You Play Your Best When It Counts Most She Talks Birdie is the podcast for competitive golfers who practice well but struggle to perform when it counts. Hosted by Dr. Shannon Reece, sports psychologist and founder of Training for Optimal Performance, this show is for tournament players who are tired of the gap between their range game and their scorecard—especially when the pressure's on. If you've ever shot your handicap in a casual round but added 8-10 strokes in competition, or watched a promising start turn into a blow-up back nine, this podcast will show you why. Shannon has coached thousands of competitive golfers—from serious club players to professionals—using her proven mental game formula to help them shoot their number when it matters, eliminate catastrophic holes under pressure, and finally play in tournaments the way they play with friends. She believes tournament golf is a mind-first game, and your swing is only as good as your ability to trust it in competition. Every episode gives you practical, field-tested strategies to master pre-shot routines, manage competitive nerves, and build the mental resilience that separates golfers who post scores from golfers who post excuses. This isn't about mechanics or grinding on the range. It's about becoming the competitor your swing is ready for. Subscribe now to close the gap between your capability and your scorecard—and start winning the tournaments you're already good enough to win.

I’ve been golfing since I was 5 years old, I’ve been told many times that I have a great swing. But I’ve never been able to reach my goals of getting to single digit handicap. It wasn’t until I started listening to this podcast that I finally reached my goal. Went as low as 8.9 index! Thank you Dr. Reece, keep the advice coming!! Next goal : get my first ACE!!
I listened to the most recent podcast #13 about how to keep from being effected by pressures as I was literally driving to play with a club as a guest for potential membership on a course I’ve never played with people I’ve never met, oh and I was in the President of the club’s foursome! Dr. Reece’s tips helped my game quite a bit. It was as if she knew exactly what I was going to be going up against.
These podcasts are a must for any level golfer! You will not only improve your game but enjoy playing golf more than you ever have! This last episode on getting out of a slump is for every golfer, beginner or pro. Thank you Dr. Reece!
Dr Reece is an asset to the golf community. She is forthright and on the ball when it comes down to getting rid of the cobwebs and training us to focus. Her course that I participated in taught me to stay in the moment. Don’t worry about an outcome that hasn’t happened. One shot at a time is my mantra now. “focus on target..not ball” Thanks Shannon!! Hope you are well.
