About Release: Golf Mental Game
Every serious golfer has a swing coach. Almost no one has a coach for the six inches between the ears - where rounds are actually won and lost. Release is a hands-free, voice-first coach for the mental game of golf. You talk, it listens, and it coaches the part of your game that no launch monitor measures: commitment, routine, composure, and the reset after a bad hole. Mind stats, not swing stats. A COACH FOR EVERY MOMENT Release isn't a chatbot you open. It knows which moment of golf you're in and changes how it talks: Pre-round: Settles you and gets you to the first tee ready - committed to your targets, easy on the results. Post-round: Talks the round through with you, builds you up, then writes your round note. Practice round: Plays the course with you, one shot at a time. Putting green: A quiet-eye ritual - read, decide, commit, roll, accept. Ask the coach: Tap and talk anytime - a question, a nerve, a quick reset. PREFER TO TYPE? Text the coach anytime for quick mental-game help - nerves, focus, commitment - the same coach, in a chat. A ROUND NOTE AFTER EVERY ROUND After your post-round talk, the coach writes a short, honest note: the shots worth banking, what went well, what you learned, and one thing to carry into your next round. Anything worth practicing lands on your work-on list. IT REMEMBERS YOUR GOLF A coach that forgets you between rounds is just a toy. Release carries what you're working on from round to round and opens where you left off - so the coaching compounds instead of resetting. Set your coaching profile once - your focus over the ball, your cue word, what you want to work on - and the coach follows it. SEE YOUR MENTAL GAME The Mental Scorecard tracks commitment, routine, composure, and recovery, drawn from your post-round talks. Tap any round on a trend to see exactly why it scored the way it did. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your journal, round notes, and scorecard live on your device. Voice sessions are processed live and the audio is not saved. Session transcripts are deleted from our voice provider within 7 days. We don't sell your data. FREE TO START The mental-game tips library, text journaling, and round logs are free, no subscription. Text coaching starts at $9.99/month; the voice coach and its memory are the full upgrade, whenever you're ready. Release is a coaching and wellness tool, not therapy, medical care, or a crisis service. Built for ages 13 and up. Grounded in the mental game the best players already practice. Now it's in your ear.
