This review is from: Golf: The Mind Game (Paperback)

Anyone interested in making thier golf game better should buy this book. Regardless of physical skill it teaches how to train your body by teaching your mind to focus more clearly, enjoy playing, and play more consistently. It uses NLP techniques and is one of the best books on NLP I've ever read. It has loads of visualisation excersises and strategies to elicit the perfect attitude more consistently and with more control. I am actually buying another copy!
