Book Description

March 12, 2000
In this book the author takes an ordinary club tennis player, John, from where his game is when he arrives for his first lesson and teaches him the skills necessary to become a better player. John in fifteen lessons workes his way up the club tennis ladder. During the process he defeats club players such as Easy Harry, Equal Pete, Practice Jerry, Steady Freddy, Volley Charlie and even the club champion, Club Champ Sam.

This is perhaps the only tennis instruction book written, presented in a 15 lesson format, that takes an actual student through the mental and physical steps necessary to become a better tennis player.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book on mental side of the game, December 2, 2009

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Better Mind Makes A Better Player (Spiral-bound)
This book is an unknown treasure. The author developed dozens of players who became nationally ranked juniors and played in college as well as some played in the pros. Has many unique things to say about the game. The book is presented as series of lessons that the "Master Pro Oscar" (who is really the author) gives to a student as the student progresses and eventually becomes the club champ. The author's method of "counting" your shots is a great mental tool as are many other tips in the book. The book also has excellent information on stroke mechanics and strategy.
