Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-01 Summary: Zen Golf - perfect fix for the mental game ... If you are having trouble with your mental focus in golf, this is the book for you. It will give you lots of tips to work thru the "issues" encountered in a friendly game of golf or your club championship tournament. I read it before any big event and it keeps me focused and in the "zone". It will remind you of why you play the game. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-01 Summary: Zen Golf ... This is a great addition to the reading list for serious golfers. It deals exclusively with the mental side of the game. I found it extremely useful for helping visualize the swing and shot I am trying to hit. A good read for those who find that their mind is the greatest limit to lowering golf scores. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-01-04 Summary: Excellent resource ... I really enjoyed reading this book. I practiced some of the relaxation and focus excersizes on a round of golf and it made me enjoy more the game and shoot a better score. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-27 Summary: Simply eye-opening! ... This book is quite unique in a sense that it doesn't teach much of your swing technique or putting skills. I'm into ZEN a lot nowadays, and I loved this book's concept pretty well. I encountered a Zen monk during my flight on the way back from Japan and ended up talking to him about this book to the Zen monk! He liked the idea, and adding that the ultimate form of "ZEN GOLF" is to think nothing when you do your swing, and it's well said indeed. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Vijay Singh, Masters and PGA Champion, says, "ZEN GOLF is the best book there is for connecting golf and the mind together. It's for everyone, and you're going to enjoy it. I keep it in my golf bag and take it with me everywhere." Charles Howell III says, "The techniques in ZEN GOLF for working with negative thoughts are better than any other psychological approach." In chapters such as "Never Keep More Than a Hundred Thoughts in Your Mind During Your Swing", "Isn't Where You Have to Play...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-28 Summary: Improve Your Confidence and Hit Better Shots ... Of all the books I have read on improving my golf game, I have to say that Fearless Golf by Dr. Gio Valiante has produced the best results for me. The book discusses Dr. Valiante working with golf professionals on tour, young developing players in college and applies his theories to hackers, which he defines as anyone struggling to break 90. Well, in my case, I am struggling to break 100. After not playing for nearly two years, because of a bad knee and an eventual full knee replacement, I have found it very difficult ...more
[2] 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
[3] 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
[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
Golf's Sacred Journey: Seven Days at the Links of Utopia
Feature: ... ISBN13: 9780310318859; Condition: NEW; Notes: Brand New from Publisher. No Remainder Mark. ...more
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-10 Summary: Great book for golf... and LIFE! ... This is a great book for golf... and for life. Golfers will like the principles relating to playing really good golf. However, the spiritual component is critical for a good life. I suspect that it's how many of the good golfers keep their perspective on the course. And the golf principles are probably used by many on the PGA tour to help keep their focus while keeping it "simple." Let's face it, golf is a great game but it is still a game. And so few golf-lovers can play it for a living so they are blessed. But we ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-31 Summary: Not just a book about golf ... This is a truly inspirational book, which focuses far more on life lessons than golf lessons. This is a a great read... whether you are a golfer or not. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-24 Summary: Excellent book about golf, life, and Truth ... David Cook is a fantastic writer and draws the reader in with the characters and principles found in this book. It is so much more than a great golf book. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-11 Summary: Incredible Book ... What a tremendous book about Golf and Faith. In the story Dr. Cook does an incredible job of getting us inside the head of an unnamed tour pro who is struggling to find his game. With the help of Johnny, he finds a lot more. I highly recommend this book. ...more

The Inner Game of Golf

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-07 Summary: Buy this Book - Do Not Buy the Kindle Edition! ... The content of this book is 5 stars and is well described by the other reviewers. However there is a problem with the Kindle edition. On location 3820 there is a critical table of information. 1/3 of the table is truncated and is not visible - even if the font is reduced to the smallest size. Therefore I strongly suggest you do not purchase the Kindle Edition and stick to the paper version. I have been very pleased with my Kindle to date. Hopefully Amazon will consider re-digitizing the book. Of course it's always ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-05-16 Summary: trust your inner self ... This book provides excellent guidance regarding trusting yourself to find the best of your game. The writing style is engaging. The writer becomes a mentor for you. This is a person you would like to know. You do come to know him as a friend and guide to a stress free approach to golf. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-04-14 Summary: A Good Update to The Original ... I bought the original version quite a while ago and wanted to revisit the topic, so I bought this revised edition. The inner game principles and exercises remain valid, but are enhanced by apporpriate connection to technical teaching. The simple act of paying attention in various ways to the various aspects of the game does actually enhance the enjoyment of the game -- at least for me. One can get over-driven to be technically correct and results focused and forget the simple pleasure of the game. So far I am only ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-14 Summary: Applying foucs to your golf game ... I re-read this book every couple of years, and enjoy it thoroughly. When a golfer has studied all the technical swing mechanics books, seen all the lesson videos and taken every tip from every source, he/she still needs to learn how to prepare himself mentally to play the game, and more importantly - improve his game. This book makes it possible to improve rapidly and to continue improving. ...more

[2] ... Review | Long before Dr. Bob Rotella made tweaking a golfer's head as important as tweaking his swing, Tim Gallwey, who knew virtually nothing about the mechanics of the game when he penned the first edition of this visionary work, understood that even the best technique collapses when the mind cracks under the game's pressure. Gallwey's ultimate insight into the game was that a golfer's mind is a golfer's worst enemy; too much thinking only gets in the way. The new edition of this groundbreaking instructional...more
