MindMeter Pro®
Train Your Mind to Play Your Best!
The MindMeter Pro® measures your mental and physical state while playing a golf shot or putt. Instead of just tracking physical tension, it reveals whether you are operating in an analytical Left Brain mode or a creative Right Brain mode.
By measuring your internal level of arousal during a shot, the MindMeter helps you identify your peak performance state. It enables you to practice controlling your thoughts and managing your arousal levels off the course, building the precise mental muscle memory you need to play in the zone on the course.

You Must Optimize Your Mentality
to Play a Shot or Putt Well
Right now you do not know how your round is going to go: will it be a good day or not? You are excited to compete, but also a little anxious about who will show up.
You have worked hard on your game and you compete a lot, yet you cannot guarantee consistency or performance.
You do not know how to train yourself, your mind and body, for competitive golf.

Optimum Arousal Level
Depends on the Shot
Optimum arousal for golf is critical to performance. On a 0–100 scale, where 0 is very relaxed and 100 is very aroused, optimum full shots are around 60 and optimum short game is around 40. Anything higher or lower and you cannot perform your best.
The difference is subtle, and you need MindMeter training to develop the self-awareness and self-control to feel it.
This is why the difference in scoring is so mysterious: your arousal can easily be too high without you knowing it, and the swing or stroke will not work unless your arousal is optimum. It doesn't matter how much you practice or how good your swing or stroke is outside competition; if arousal is too high, it will change.
Note: your actual optimum numbers are probably different, and you need the MindMeter Pro to figure that out objectively.
Your Heart Rate Doesn't Lie
Heart Rate Variability Increases When You Are Calm, Confident and Committed! Heart Rate Variability Decreases When You Are Anxious, Nervous and Protecting!
No more guessing, objective feedback lets you dial it in.
If you are calm, confident and committed, the numbers on the MindMeter will drop; if you are anxious, nervous or fearful, they will rise.
If you have optimum arousal and are operating in a right-brain, athletic way, your numbers will drop over the ball; if you are higher on arousal and operating in left-brain, careful mode, they will rise.
We use the most accurate HRV measurements from the Polar H9 or H10 chest strap to generate sensitive, immediate feedback.
Pair the strap, start accurate feedback
MindMeter Pro connects over Bluetooth to a Polar H9 or H10 heart beat-sensing chest strap: the most accurate, non-medical heart sensors on the market. Accurate data is critical.
Polar H9 and H10 chest straps are widely available. You may already have one, and Amazon or Polar distributors will have them in stock.
You need accurate readings in real time for effective feedback
We have been refining our algorithm since 2002 to collect enough data points to be sensitive without being over sensitive. Too sensitive, and the output becomes gibberish.
We have found the data points that let us see when your thoughts change, without losing that sensitivity.
Simple heart rate monitors aren't effective here: they collect too many beats and create a slow moving average. HRV readings on other devices are designed for different purposes: HRV over a short period while resting after a workout indicates whether you worked out too hard or just right, while HRV over longer periods of time indicates general health and stress levels.
See exactly when it changed
Lets you see yourself during your routine and while over the ball, swinging, with the MindMeter numbers displayed at the top of the replay right after the shot, while it is still fresh in your mind.
That makes it easy to identify when your thoughts changed and why the numbers changed, and to understand when you are thinking in the right ways and the wrong ways.
This self-awareness of your thoughts and arousal teaches you how you need to think and operate, and how it feels when you are in the right mentality. Practicing that state is key to managing yourself on the course.
Use it in the Practice Area, in Practice Rounds and Thought Control Practice Sessions Every Day at Home
Thought control practice with breathing pacers, live tracking and recorded session history lets you learn to control your thoughts and lower arousal with daily practice at home.
Use the MindMeter Pro to prepare for your competitive rounds: do Thought Control Practice on the way to the course, before you warm up, then use the Tones while warming up, and do more Thought Control Practice before you step on the first tee. Then take the strap off and put it in your bag. The MindMeter is not legal for competition.

FAQ's
What does the number on the meter mean?
It is a real-time read on your heart rate variability, on a 0–100 scale. Within a few beats we can indicate increasing or decreasing heart rate variability. Higher HRV is generated by a Calm, Confident, Right Brained, Athletic mentality. When HRV is increasing the numbers on the MindMeter are dropping. That is the pattern we want over the ball.
Why isn't a chest strap included?
The Polar H9 and H10 chest strap is easy to find on Amazon or at Polar distributors. You may already have this popular strap. For us to maintain a stock of them and ship them out as you order will slow everything down. If you have any problems with the strap you can go back to Amazon or Polar for replacement. We don't manufacture the straps so do not want to be responsible for them. If you attend a GolfPsych School, the MindMeter Pro App and chest strap may be included in the price.
How does the subscription and renewal work?
Your first year is $199. After that it renews automatically at $99/year. Manage or cancel any time from your account dashboard.
Does MindMeter Pro work on Android?
MindMeter Pro is available on the Apple App Store. The Android version for Google Play is in development and should be available soon.
Do I need a GolfPsych Coach to use it?
No. Your subscription activates your account and the app directly. If you do work with a GolfPsych Coach, you can share your sessions with them. They can help you interpret your numbers and find your optimum numbers for full shots and for putts quickly. You can certainly figure this out yourself.
