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 positive and confident outlook will translate into better performance.

Ben Hogan's
Five Lessons : The Modern Fundamentals of Golf by
Ben Hogan Paperback
- 127 pages Reprint edition (March 1989)
Simon & Schuster (Paper); ISBN: 0671612972 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.34
x 7.97 x 5.12 | | Ben
Hogan's premise in this 1957 classic is driven home in bold letters: "The
average golfer is entirely capable of building a repeatable swing and breaking
80". Religions are founded on less, and Hogan's detailed analyses
and illustrated demonstrations of grip, stance, posture, and the two basic components
of the swing make up a sacred book. Though its very simplicity seems dated, this
is the tome of technique that should serve as the foundation of every golf library.
