[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-11 Summary: Could not put it down! ... I'm not a big golfer, but I enjoyed this book immensely. I was hooked from page one by the writing and shared in the protagonist's journey -- not only to the small town of Utopia, but also in his journey for awareness. He begins the story as a broken man, defeated by his own doing and completely lacking of any functional internal compass. By the end he's whole, focused and in charge of his own destiny. It was a great read and I loved every minute of it! ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-10-26 Summary: Very Satisfied ... I was very pleased with the condition of the book. It was almost like new. The price was considerably less than what I would have had to pay for a new one in a book store. Thank you! ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-08-28 Summary: learning how to loose the fear and play better golf ... I am sure that many people (golfers) that read this think they will pick up that one tip that will turn their game around. Not so. The book is very repetitive. He says the same thing over and over and over using quotes from his three most favorite golfers...Hogan, Nicklaus and Tiger. He also references many know and unknown golfers and allows them to speak in their own words how fear affects their game. Back to the repitition; this is the point of writing a book on the psychology of the mental game. You say it over ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-05-12 Summary: Good but too long ... I have to agree with other reviewers. The message is a good one but it takes way too many pages to make the key points. There are also too many stories of PGA golfers and not enough of regular Joes using his technique. He writes well and the science was interesting but I didn't really get to the meat until the last 60 or 70 pages. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-02 Summary: Excellent book ... Great book, This book is a must have in your library. there's plenty useful information that can be put into practice. Ramon A. Puchales ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | A detailed plan for conquering the FEAR that sabotages swings and ruins psyches, from the pioneering psychologist whose techniques have benefited Davis Love III, Justin Leonard, and numerous other world-class golfers. As Jack Nicklaus once observed, fear is the golfer’s greatest enemy, inspiring Tiger Woods to "refuse" to give in to this debilitating emotion. It can turn professionals into jelly and dominate the games of most amateurs. It alters swing paths, causes “tap-in” putts...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-30 Summary: GREAT GOLF READ ... I'm currently half way through this book, and brother, let me tell you it's a great read. It's about golf and a fictional character named Shivas Irons-who is quickly becoming an icon in the golf world. If you golf, read this book. If you don't golf and don't understand why people golf-read this book. If you don't care, why are you reading this? I gotta go now and finish read Golf in the Kingdom before the movie comes out! ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-22 Summary: Inspired and Inspiring! ... It's been many years since I first read "Golf in the Kingdom" but I'm still trying to get other people to read it. Yes, it is ostensibly about golf, but it's really about the golfer's relationship to himself. When I read the book, I was an avid though struggling golfer - having a standing tee time at a particular Portland Oregon public golf course - Heron Lakes. The day after I finished reading the book, I met my usual golfing bud at the course first thing in the morning. We were teamed up with two singles and off ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-11 Summary: Golf in the Kingdom ... For any committed golfer a great book, interesting read. I had read this many many years ago and tried to find it again - glad I did, it is so worth it. Excellent seller, excellent copy, excellent price. Thank you so much ...more
Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | Featuring further reflections by the author, this classic--and bestselling--tale of golf and mysticism reveals the possibilities for transcendence that reside in the human soul....more
[2] ... Review | Esalen Institute founder Michael Murphy's divine meditation on the royal and ancient game defied categorization when it was first published in 1972, and it still does. Instantly hailed as a classic, Golf in the Kingdom is an altogether unique confluence of fiction, philosophy, myth, mysticism, enchantment, and golf instruction. The central character is a wily Scotsman named Shivas Irons, a golf professional by vocation and a shaman by design, whom Murphy, as participant in his own novel, meets in 1956...more
6 Weeks to Winning Weekend Golf
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-08-19 Summary: Excellent! ... I recently retired and decided to learn to play golf. This book has been so helpful that I have read it twice. I don't know how valuable it would be for golfers with low handicaps, but for most of us just learning to play the game as well as golfers struggling to play bogey golf, the book is outstanding. As another viewer remarked, the book contains typos, but the typos were not distracting (and I'm a retired English teacher). For $1, you can't go wrong with this book. I would have paid much more! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-07-22 Summary: Weekend Golfer ... Book was informative and helpful. I was a bit surprised and disappointed in the number of typographical errors in the book. But I guess for the price, I was able to read through the errors. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-06-26 Summary: Rest Golf Book Ever! ... 99 cents? This book is worth at least 10 times that. I'm a weekend golfer, not the club champion. This book explained what I needed to know to get a handle on my game and enjoy playing more. I really enjoyed the "Big Hole Putting" chapter. My game greatly improved in just 6 weeks exactly as the title implied. An easy read done in a quick, crisp style. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-30 Summary: John Purner's new book really improved my golf game. ... Everything I thought I knew about how to drive, chip or putt was wrong! "6 Weeks to Winning Weekend Golf" spells out 10 make- sense steps that will turn any 'duffer' into a golfing pro. John Purner may not be the "Sultan of Swat" but he is without doubt the "Socrates of Swing". Thankfully he took the time to write this book and luckily I read it. A round of golf is now the highlight of my week rather than "a good walk spoiled" as Mark Twain put it. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Mark Twain commented on golf by saying, "it is a good walk spoiled". He was frustrated by the game. Certainly there are days when "it is a good walk spoiled", thankfully there are moments when it is "a good life made better". This book is about the techniques that will make your walk better. How to putt, chip, drive how to aim, and most importantly how to think about each round of golf. Playing the game better will help you enjoy it more. The most valuable winning techniques that I have...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-09 Summary: A must have must do if you play golf ... If you play golf once a week or every day this book is a must read, especially if you are in the over 50 crowd and your range of motion has suffered from years of neglect, meaning stretching, weight training, fitness walking, biking etc. To jump out of the car and into the cart is an invitation for injury even if you are young and fit. It's just that the young and fit don't break as easily or quickly as the older and stiffer like myself. What I like about this book is that he covers all the aspects of how to play good ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-24 Summary: Got Golf Exercises? ... If you play golf and are looking to get in better shape to either improve your game or prevent imjuries, look no further, Golf Rx: A 15-Minute-a-Day Core Program for More Yards and Less Pain is just what the doctor ordered. In fact, it's written by a doctor. The book is divided up into distinct sections. There's a chapter on exercises to increase the air time and distance of your drives. There also is a chapter with warm-up exercises, another that has stretches you can do at each of the eighteen holes, and a cool-down ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-23 Summary: Wanna make a single digit handicap ... I bought this book to help me break the 11 handicap barrier I have been pushing for the last few months. Been focused on short game but know getting myself in better shape would also help. Am planning on using these over winter and see what the spring brings. Initial reading makes sense so am looking forward to using the suggestions. ...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Now in paperback, the official physician to the PGA Tour shares his groundbreaking research on preventing back pain and adding more yards to your drives. It is estimated that half of all recreational golfers and one-third of all professional golfers suffer from some form of lower-back pain. Conventional wisdom suggests that the twisting nature of the golf swing is the sole culprit. But research conducted by sports-medicine specialist Vijay Vad, M.D., reveals that the swing is only one...more
