🏌️‍♂️ The Super 6 Strategy: Fueling Your Golf Game
Golf is a game of focus, stamina, and consistent energy. What you eat on the course can make or break your round. The Super 6 Strategy breaks the 18 holes into 3 key phases so you feel strong, focused, and ready to finish.

Holes 1–6: Stabilize Energy
🔑 Start steady, avoid spikes and crashes

• Low-carb, light snacks to ease into your round
• Keeps blood sugar balanced and mind sharp

✅ Examples:

• Apple, pear, or berries + a handful of nuts
• Hard-boiled egg
• Cheese stick with cucumber slices
• Beef jerky (low-sodium if possible)

Holes 7–12: Maintain Energy
🔑 Balance is key — fuel both body and mind

• Combine protein, healthy carbs, and fats
• Provides sustained energy to stay consistent through the middle stretch

✅ Examples:

• Peanut butter sandwich on whole grain
• Protein bar with balanced macros
• Trail mix (nuts + seeds + dried fruit)
• Greek yogurt with berries (if stored cold)

Holes 13–18: Surge Energy
🔑 Finish strong with quick-access fuel

• High-carb, fast energy snacks to sharpen focus and push through the last stretch
• Light stimulants can boost concentration without overloading the body

✅ Examples:

• Small handful of dried fruit (raisins, dates, cranberries)
• Air-popped popcorn or pretzels
• A few squares of dark chocolate
• Banana chips or rice cakes
• Coffee or green tea (if tolerated)
• Energy bites (oats + honey + nut butter)

⚡ Coach P’s Note: Eat smaller portions more often. Avoid big meals during play — the goal is steady energy, not a heavy stomach.
