The worst thing that can happen to any golfer is a severe case of yips. It can be a maddening affliction that makes many golfers want to quit the game they love. Fortunately, there is a way to cure the yips. Jim Waldron has developed a system proven over and over again to be very effective at completely and quickly eliminating the root causes of the yips. By dealing with all four root causes from the outset, progress is rapid and permanent.
Jim will show you why you yip in the first place, how to use your conscious mind mental focus in a way that makes it virtually impossible to yip, how to shift your emotional state from a negative to a positive in just a few seconds, and how simple mechanical changes will make your brain use new “yip-free” neuromuscular pathways to perform the swing or stroke.
His mind/body connection approach has a 99.5% success rate with students using the in person instruction option, and a 94% success rate for students who choose the real time webcam/online program. Fixing your yips permanently is indeed possible.
Jim works with golfers with all types of yips. Chipping yips and short game yips are the most common type, with full swing yips and driver yips a close second. Jim also has cured scores of golfers with putting yips, pitching yips and bunker yips.
Jim can work with you in person or remotely via webcam.

What Jim's students are saying about his Yips instruction...
"I'm a snooker player from the UK. Over a period of time I had developed severe yips, unable to bring the cue back on certain shots. Years of constantly changing my technique due to trying to find the "magic bullet", and total lack of ability to focus and shut out negative thoughts had led to these yips, to the point that I had zero confidence and was a stone's throw away from giving up the game for good.
I found Jim on a golfing forum, and read some replies from him to others suffering with golfing yips. I instantly knew this guy really understood the yips, the way he explained things, it was an epiphany for me.
I contacted Jim and took his 10 hour remote yip curing program. What can I say... I never thought it would be possible to overcome my affliction, but I have. Not only that, but I now also have a far greater mental game in general. At last I feel I am in control of my body and mind, and after 20+ years of inconsistency I am now playing better and more consistent than ever. I have a much greater understanding of how it is best to practice both physical technique changes and improvements, and also improve my mental skills. I used to feel pressure big time in matches which affected my game hugely. Jim has taught me how to change my outlook and what to focus on. Fear and doubt no longer rule over me.
Skills learned for snooker, but I will apply them to many things in life. I just wish we'd met years ago!" James B. UK
"To give you some background, I was a top junior golfer growing up, playing alongside many who are now on the tour. However, as I reached late high school and early college, I experienced severe burnout and the dreaded full-swing yips, creating a negative feedback loop. Initially, the yips started with my driver but soon affected my entire bag, except for chipping and putting, which remained strong. Frustrated, I quit midway through college and played fewer than five rounds over the next five years, still yipping during those rare occasions.
A couple of years ago, I moved to California and decided to give golf one last chance, inspired by the great weather. Unfortunately, within a few rounds, I couldn't hit a football field with any club in my bag and was on the verge of quitting golf for good. There seemed to be no point in playing when I couldn't break 90, especially after routinely shooting below 73.
Then I discovered Balance Point Golf and Jim. After a few phone calls, which felt more like therapy sessions, I booked a trip to Hawaii and started implementing Jim's strategies. The three-day session in Hawaii was intense and eye-opening. As Jim put it, my swing was a +5, but my mental game and concentration were at a 30—no joke. Without revealing too much (you need to experience it firsthand), I left with strategies, drills, mental techniques, and a game plan to get my golf game back on track.
Initially, progress was slow, but I persisted with what I learned from hitting thousands of golf balls on the range with Jim in Hawaii. Gradually, everything began to click. Flash forward about a year from my lesson with Jim, and I now have a 0 handicap and haven't shot higher than a 77 all year—and that was on a windy day with three three-putts on the front nine. I truly believe I can get my game back to where I rarely shoot above par, and it's all thanks to Jim. I couldn't give a more enthusiastic endorsement—you have to see it to believe it!" Sawyer S. San Francisco, CA
"I developed the yips in my chipping about 10 years ago. It was destroying the game I love. Having seen more coaches than I care to remember, I could see no way out and even stopped playing for a while. That was until I came across Jim Waldron via a podcast. I was sceptical at first, and deep down knew it wouldn’t work, but I still committed myself fully to the programme. The process was one of the best experiences I have ever had, and it really works! I have been cured by Jim, and will be forever grateful." Richard C. UK
