Almost everyone I love plays golf. My parents, my brothers and my husband. My children are learning. We have many golf books around our house, and this is the first one I have ever read cover to cover. It is filled with great tips and stories. I may even dust off the set of clubs I got 10 years ago and take another swing at it. My husband says this book has changed his life!

Golf requires you to think and Be the Ball makes you think about thinking. I loved reading the comments from playing pros such as such as Lee Trevino, Arnold Palmer, Greg Norman, Gary McCord and Nancy Lopez and teaching pros such as Butch Harmon, Wally Goodwin, Pat Gross and Stan Thirsk. It is a book that I keep going back to time and time again.

The book is a compilation of golf professionals' comments regarding various aspects of the game. The professionals include golfers, caddies, instructors, commentators, and a handful of well-known amateurs. It was a very effective way of convincing me that, granting the importance of golf skill, golf is a highly mental challenge. Recommended for reading and reading again by golfers of all skill levels.

i'm not a big reader, and i really enjoyed this book. i believe it helped me take about 5-7 stokes off my game (i went from 100 to 93-95 consistantly)
