What is... The Chamber(tm) ?

Once You Get It... Your Golf Game Will Never Be The Same. Ever.

Welcome to The Chamber. Think Nothing, when everything counts.

I hope you enjoy my take on the mental part of the game. More about me and why ... The Chamber, but more important allow me to introduce you to; WHAT... is the Chamber?

In the Fall of 2004 I was selected to be the Host of an emerging competing alternative Golf Reality TV Show called: X-Treme Golf TV, to play head to head for air time on The Golf Channel, globally. Golf was the sport to be involved with. Tiger Woods. Jack Nicklaus. The New Era enters... bringing with them, lucrative corporate sponsorship contracts in fitness, nutrition, spiritual health, sports psychologists, performance coaches, massage, ritual training times, ritual gym times, ritual REST time... amateurs the world over wanted to hear more GOLF... anything.

The Big Break became very popular... with huge ratings on The Golf Channel.

Enter... X-Treme Golf TV. The Golf Holiday From Hell. 6 day golf tournament, 4 men, 4 women, an elimination format, filmed 24 hours, edited for a SEASON to be played on The Golf Channel, and CHCH, or Global.... shot in and around Southern Ontario, Canada. It was a huge success. Early thoughts at the WRAP party... Everyone... go home and clear your calendars for 1 year.

Never heard of it, did yah? Me neither. Great experience. Returned teaching at the College level. Semi Retired and began writing and performing Stand Up Comedy, and this Golf Performance Program... Along with The Mental Skills Assessment and Coaching Report for golf and The 8 Traits of Champion Golfers I developed The Chamber. A place I can go as I prepare to make my next best golf shot, mentally.... to clear my thoughts, breath, heart rate... decisions made..... everything each of the Players/Contestants experienced on The Pilot, X-Treme Golf TV learned. It was insane.

Ladies and Gentleman.... Welcome inside The Chamber. Watch your Step.

  Mental Performance in the 60–90 Seconds Before Every Shot

  By David R. Archer

  
  

  In the final moments of The 2026 Masters, we watched the best golfers in the world: face it:

  • Elevated heart rate

  • Tight grip

  • Racing thoughts

  • The weight of the moment 

  • Panic

  • Fear

  • Euphoria

  • Challenged

  • Tough Mindedness

  • Motivated

  • Adrenaline

  
  

  I am NOT a psychologist. I'm semi-retired What I focus on isn’t about swing mechanics.

  MY focus is 100% solely about what happens before the swing BEGINS.

  
  

  🎯 The Concept

  “The Moment Arrives.”

  Every golfer — amateur to professional — on a Par 72 golf course faces 72 shots, (give or take 2 or 3 shots aside, right?).

  In fact, sorry to hurt anyone's ego, but (too late) any shots over Par are usually 90% mental. What's holding you back from shooting Par? For your abilities are you teeing off from the wrong tees. Whatever you're thinking, it is "thinking - about anything - at precisely the wrong time.

  But more importantly: 

  You will learn how to turn each shot, from this day forward, into 72 moments under pressure 

  
  

  The question is not if pressure shows up…

  It’s: Are you ready when it does?

Does Golf Drive You Mental? Then Get The Mental Game!

This is the mental game... pay attention. You Must Have A Tool To Succeed Within.

A place you can isolate all non essentials, next 3 - 5 seconds, heart rate - breathing rate "in the trough" Relaxed State of ConZENtration"....

🧠 What Is The Chamber™?

  • Pressure situations, identify and get focused.

  • Pre-shot clarity... time to be the Player you need to be, right now.

  • Emotional control... task at hand, A Tranquil Mind is the first requisite for good judgment...calm... re-entry, small target, one shot, back off if need too...

  • tempo... make perfect contact.

  It gives golfers a fool proof repeatable process to:

  • Reset

  • Refocus

  • Become the Player YOU need to be, right now!

  • Execute
