Customer Reviews — [1] 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] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-11-15 Summary: Golf is Not a Game of Perfect ... Well worth the reading. Common themes that help focus on the essentials, allowing it to sink in. Most of these type of books generally raise the awareness of common sense like focus on the target, etc. This book provides good testimonials, examples, etc. to bring home the real purpose. Easy to read. Though I haven't put it to practice yet, I know it will help my game. Already picked up his other book on putting. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-30 Summary: Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect ... This item was as described by the seller and came within the time promised. Best of all, it was exactly the book I needed! I'd highly recommend the book to anyone struggling with their golf game. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-08-28 Summary: Top Notch ... This is not a book intended to teach swings, strokes, putts or the mechanics of golf. It is however a fantastic book relegated to the mental aspects of the game from our personal level. As he states, there is no magic to the common sense he applies, it is just raising our awareness of how not to beat ourselves up over the less than perfect shots. Very readable at 222 pages. We would highly recommend this book to anyone who has frustrations and wants to put the fun back into their game. I was doing some struggling but ...more
Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | Dr. Bob Rotella is one of the hottest performance consultants in America today. Among his many professional clients are Nick Price (last year's Player of the Year), Tom Kite, Davis Love III, Pat Bradley, Brad Faxon, John Daly, and many others. Rotella, or "Doc," as most players refer to him, goes beyond just the usual mental aspects of the game and the reliance on specific techniques. What Rotella does here in this extraordinary book, and with his clients, is to create an attitude and...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

Feature: ... ISBN13: 9781592403400; Condition: NEW; Notes: Brand New from Publisher. No Remainder Mark. ...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
Golf My Way: The Instructional Classic, Revised and Updated

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-26 Summary: Great Golf Booik ... I learned more in the 1st 3 chapters than I learned from any lesson. And the chapter on what I call "Golf Speak" explained all the hook, slice, fade etc. Great book for beginner or advanced golfer. He talks my language. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-20 Summary: Before Tigermania there was this guy named Jack... ... And his book is an excellent read for anyone who plays the game. Jack shares an awful lot of what made him the greatest golfer of his time (and I'm still not convinced of all time). Having owned the original, the revised version is even better. This book is a must for any golfer's library. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-04-14 Summary: Great insights, but not an easy book for golf beginners ... Jack does a great job in going through his swing, and it provides quite some interesting and thought-provoking suggestions on why he did things a certain way. Nevertheless, the book is quite long to read, and in my opinion, requires already some understanding about how a golf swing works. For this, I would suggest golf newcomers to start with Ben Hogan's "Five lessons" first. Building on that one, Jack's book offers an array of options to adapt and improve your swing, doubtless. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-02-03 Summary: Another Worthwhile Classic Golf Instruction Book ... I have the original 1974 version -- from the era when woods were actually made of wood. Recently ordered the updated version just to see what Mr. Nicklaus amended from the original. Basics are the same . . . Doesn't matter which one you have, both are excellent. Highly recommend. ...more
