This is a great way for PWS to recognize the motorical aspects and how muscle tension and golf tension are pretty similar. I am also glad that it talks about fear, anxiety, self doubt as being why PWS continue with their own disfluency. It is just the same as within the game of golf, which is pretty interesting. Would you know of any other sports, dances, or any type of activity that SLPs can also use as analogy for stuttering? Btw I think the golf analogy is brilliant!
