Hugh Morris, President

Hugh Morris is the creator of Total Focused Golf.  Total Focused Golf provides golfers of all ages and abilities with the mental skills that allow them to make the most of their innate abilities in golf, and in life.

Hugh is a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel and graduate of the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College.  He completed three combat tours in Korea and Vietnam and holds a number of decorations and service medals.  He also holds a bachelor degree from the University of Southern Mississippi and a masters degree in Humanistic Psychology from Pacific Western University. 

Hugh developed the Total Focused Golf concept based on his more than 30 years of private practice in therapeutic hypnosis.  Hugh served as adjunct hypnotist with the Oncology Department at Brooke Army Medical Center and is a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists, the American Board of Hypnotherapy and the Primary Activation Institute of New Zealand.  He has also taught hypnosis for more than 20 years, delivered lectures on the topic at universities and published a number of articles.

Hugh launched the Total Focused Golf concept in 2002, and has worked with a number of players on the PGA, Nike, Canadian and LPGA tours as well as a number of prominent teaching professionals.  His calm and reassuring approach has helped his junior clients to win a number of tournaments as well as receive scholarships to compete at universities such as Texas Tech, the Citadel and Baylor University.  Amateur golfers working with Hugh have achieved significant reductions in their handicaps, elimination of swing and putting "yips", and greater enjoyment in the game.  Additionally, golfers of all skill levels have found that participation in the program has not only made their golf game better but has also provided remarkable improvements in their life and well being.

Hugh is also the developer and leader of The Total Focused Golf Professional seminar series for teaching professionals.  This three-part seminar series is designed to help teaching professionals understand how to identify the learning method of individual students, match their teaching style to that method, build better rapport with students based on their learning method and use language to effectively communicate new skills and knowledge.  This seminar is also available for business leaders seeking to improve the communications skills of executives as well as sales and marketing personnel.
