[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-12-30 Summary: Have an open mind...and it will work ... I videotaped my swing back in July and found that I had a very flat swing. I have worked on fixing that swing (and some other faults)for many hours. The more I worked, the worse I got; but even though my scores were rising, I felt that my swing improved...until I videotaped myself again. NOTHING HAD CHANGED! I really believed that my swing was better, but it was almost exactly the same. Years ago I was a 12HC with my lowest round being an 81. My goal,this year, was to break 80 and eventually have a single digit HC. ...more

[2] ... Review | One of golf guru Jim Flick's mantras is that golf is 90 percent mental, and the other 10 percent is mental, too. Dr. Bob Rotella, a noted sports psychologist and performance consultant, roots around the golfer's mind to expose--and analyze--the doubts, the fears, and the frustrations that haunt anyone who's ever picked up a club and swung it. Through anecdote and aphorism he suggests how these mental and emotional hazards can be played through, and, regardless of skill level, how teeing off with a...more

[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-16 Summary: Simple and Concise ... I have read quite a few golf books and magazines, and the information contained within always claimed to be "easy" or "simple", and all that literature did was clutter my head with conflicting swing thoughts, and gave me a serious case of "analysis paralysis". After all my reading, I figured out that I need to simplify my swing and increase lag. This little miracle of a book explains those two concepts in a way that makes it very easy to conceptualize. I just put the book down and felt compelled to write this review. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-02-06 Summary: Tiger Woods book ... I've only read a couple of chapters but from that sample the book is very good. The book is an easy read- informative without being technical and the right amount of anecdote is mixed in. The only negative I can find so far is the actual writing style. After hearing him talk & realizing his age at the time of publication the words don't seem to be his voice. It seems that editors style is most prevalent. It's not a problem once you get used to it though it was a disappointment at first. ...more
