[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-06-21 Summary: Excellent ... I have been a casual golfer now for over 15 years. I decided last year to start working on improving all aspects of my game. I had been growing frustrated lately with my lack of progress until a friend recommended this book to me. I have been doing the exercises outlined in this book for six weeks now. There is a marked improvement in my posture upon address of the ball and balance during my swing. This has translated into more consistent ball striking and lower scoring. It has reignited a fire to improve my swing ...more

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

[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

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-02-28 Summary: Self awareness is the path to par ... For many people, golf is a game of "could've, would've, should've." I could've hit that shot better. I would've hit that shot better if I had done this or that. I should've hit that shot better. Normally, rational people seem to develop unrealistic expectations upon arrival at the golf course. Instead of having fun, they put pressure on themselves to make a certain shot or achieve a particular score. If that doesn't happen, frustration and self-doubt set in. A normally relaxing game becomes a test of self worth. Attempts ...more
[2] 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
[3] 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
[4] 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

[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

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-18 Summary: Thoroughly enjoying this audiobook... ... Really good car "read." It's funny because the narrator sort of sounds like Tiger too... Really good visualization tool, and the PDF's are pretty helpful in concert with the audio. Couldn't help but laugh, though, when Tiger states, "I like to have fun" when talking about celebrating after a win. ...more
