Description

With his signature “phenomenal” (The New York Times), golf expert and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Bob Rotella offers an eye-opening guide to overcoming the mental challenges of golf.

The Golfer’s Mind was actually first suggested by Davis Love, Jr.—Davis Love III’s dad—who encouraged Dr. Bob Rotella to write an instruction book on golf’s mental challenges, organized by topic. Love thought that golfers could keep the book with them, or at least nearby, at all times. When they needed a refresher on a certain issue, they could consult the book, read for a few minutes, and take away solid guidance regarding their difficulties. Rotella heard what Love said, and twenty years later, The Golfer’s Mind is that book. From his Ten Commandments (Commandment I. Play to play great. Don’t play not to play poorly) to just about any topic a golfer might imagine, this is the ideal way for players to get all of Rotella's teachings. He covers topics including:

-Butterflies

-Practicing to Play Great

-The Rhythm of the Game

-Routine

-Setbacks

-How Winning Happens

In the perfect format for the busy golfer, The Golfer’s Mind is the concise and convenient quick-reference tool to appeal to Rotella’s millions of followers and is sure to become a golf classic.

    I would give the book five stars if not for the numerous misspelled words. Fortunately, I believe I was able to decipher the authors main points. If an updated, correctly spelled version is available, I am interested.

    I am a professional golfer that just started, I have heard these concepts form different players and coaches but never actually understood them clearly until I read this book. Very helpful hats off to doc
  • Great book, horrible editing

    The content and ideas in this book are priceless to every golfer, and I believe Dr. Rotella's teachings will help everyone who reads it. The problem is, it seems this e-book was edited by either a really bad computer program, or a very sloppy editor. There are many typos, and some are laugh out loud funny! It doesn't kill it, because you will easily be able to figure out what the mistyped words were supposed to be, but when you pay for something, it shouldn't include this many errors. The 4 star rating would have been 5 stars without the sloppy editing.
