“Enjoy the game. Happy golf is good golf” – Gary Player

Golf books provide the reader with a vast array of information ranging from the history of golf and golfers through the mental and physical attributes for the “perfect” golfer to the absurd and humorous. At www.amazon.com you will find all the books that you need for your enjoyment of the game of golf.

        I love this! The Ten Commandments of Golf are taken               from The Golfer’s Mind, written By Dr Bob Rotella. They           have been pinned to my wall since I got the book. It is             how every golfer should think.         


       I.         Play to Play Great. Don't play not to play poorly.
    Buy from          II.        Love the challenge of the day, whatever it may be.
 amazon.com       III.       Get out of results and get into process.
                           IV.        Know that nothing will bother or upset you on the                                          golf course, and you will be in a great state of                                              mind for every shot.
                           V.         Playing with a feeling that the outcome doesn't                                            matter is almost always preferable to caring too                                            much.
                           VI.        Believe fully in yourself so you can play freely.
                           VII.       See where you want the ball to go before every                                            shot.
                           VIII.      Be decisive, committed and clear.
                           IX.        Be your own best friend.
                           X.         Love your wedge and your putter.

Darren Clark's book could have been called - "Think Better to Score Better".

    There are three areas that need to be developed for you
    to reach your potential as a golfer. Everybody knows the     first one. That is the technical aspect (the swing). More     and more people are realising the benefit of the second     aspect, which is fitness and lastly golfers now realise         how much the mental game comes into play.
    My shelves are full of books on the mental game of golf.
    Golf - The Mind Factor is probably one of the better ones. Rather than just telling stories about great comebacks, it gives you the techniques to equip yourself on the golf course.
We have all heard that voice in your head saying "Don't hit it in the water, please don't hit it in the water" and then "Splash". What you say to yourself on the golf course can be the difference between shooting your best ever score and loosing your nerve and swing coming into the last few holes.
Just to show you how good the book is I will give you one of the techniques for you to go away and work on. It is all about Self Talk. Here it is:

"Many people absolutely torture themselves with their internal dialogue. Over the next couple of rounds try stepping out of the action and just listen to what's actually going on. Most of this internal dialogue has become so habitual and so unconscious that you're unaware of its presence and effect. Go out next time and just tune in to what's occurring; you may even start to smile at the abuse and torture that you're inflicting on yourself. After the round, take a pen and jot down a couple of the things that you have said to yourself out on the course. When you actually see this on paper you will see it for what it is - ridiculous. This first step is vital though, because you can't change something unless you know what it is! Have fun with this and maybe even observe the self-torture your playing partners are inflicting upon themselves."

I have tortured myself on many an occasion. I have completely revamped my thought process and now have a lot more fun on the course, and as a result, what do you know, I play better and my scores are better.
This is a tiny investment in your game, but can give you such lucrative rewards if you take that bit of time to implement these techniques. You can get your hands on a copy of Golf - The Mind Factor from Amazon.
