Shrink Your Handicap: A Revolutionary Program from an Acclaimed Psychiatrist and a Top 100 Golf Instructor (U)

A behavioral psychiatrist and top 100 golf instructor offer a unique perspective on how to understand and overcome a golfer's greatest obstacle: the brain Anyone who thinks golf isn't a mental game has never played a round with his boss, has never missed a shot he's hit a hundred times on the driving range, and has never swung wildly on a crowded first tee. Golf is a mental game, and the best way to improve your game is to understand the psychological processes that make the sport both frustrating and satisfying. In Shrink Your Handicap, a behavioral psychiatrist and a top 100 golf pro have formed a unique collaboration that shows readers how to overcome the mental obstacles that keep them from playing their best. Focusing on anxiety reduction, technical skills, and the importance of establishing a pre-shot routine, it offers step-by-step instructions on how to relax, focus, and perfect the swings that are vital to any golfer's game. More effective than high-tech golf clubs, and less expensive than private lessons, this remarkable book can help any golfer reduce their handicap by increasing their understanding of the mind-body connection.
