## Description

Filled with insightful stories about golf, Dr. Bob Rotella’s delightful book will improve the game of even the most casual weekend player.
Dr. Bob Rotella is one of the hottest performance consultants in America today. Among his many professional clients are Nick Price
, Tom Kite, Davis Love III, Pat Bradley, Brad Faxon, John Daly, and many others. Rotella, or “Doc,” as most players refer to him, goes beyond just the usual mental aspects of the game and the reliance on specific techniques. What Rotella does here in this extraordinary book, and with his clients, is to create an attitude and a mindset about all aspects of a golfer's game, from mental preparation to competition. The most wonderful aspect of it all is that it is done in a conversational fashion, in a dynamic blend of anecdote and lesson. And, as some of the world's greatest golfers will attest, the results are spectacular. Golfers will improve their golf game and have more fun playing. Some of Rotella's maxims include:
-On the first tee, a golfer must expect only two things of himself: to have fun, and to focus his mind properly on every shot.
-Golfers must learn to love the challenge when they hit a ball into the rough, trees, or sand. The alternatives – anger, fear, whining, and cheating – do no good.
-Confidence is crucial to good golf. Confidence is simply the aggregate of the thoughts you have about yourself.
-It is more important to be decisive than to be correct when preparing to play any golf shot or putt.
Filled with delightful and insightful stories about golf and the golfers Rotella works with, Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect will improve the game of even the most casual weekend player.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like many other golfers I worked my way down to ...
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 30 June 2014*

Like many other golfers I worked my way down to bogey golf but then I got stuck. I could go out and shoot low 80's or on another round, maybe only a week later be struggling to stay under 100.I have lessons, practice and have been commended by my coach on the fact that I work on the game and am bound to lower my handicap over time. Well despite that it didn't seem to be happening and after another lesson where I was really struggling my coach recommended this book. He said I was too hard an myself and kept looking for perfection when I should be enjoying the game more and freeing up my mind.I was sceptical; I don't normally go in for the mind aspect of things and take a rather bullish approach but with no other answers on the horizon I ordered it and read it in two sittings - it is a very easy read.Lots of the points raised in the book hit home, I am one of those people who says, "Hey, I'm better than this!", I am someone who tries to fix his swing on the course and I am someone who practices and focusses intently on getting better but am not, or at least don't seem to be. I had become someone obsessed with the mechanics of the swing.Took all the advice to the first tee the following day and shot 85 despite 36 putts and recorded my longest drive to date (since I have had a GPS watch) of 258 yards with the easiest, most fluid swing and next to no muscle/effort. More importantly I really 'enjoyed' the round, something that had been lacking in my game of late. I wasn't worried about the score, I didn't add up the front 9 or keep working out what I needed to finish the last 3 holes on in order to lower my hcp. I hit bad shots, sure but I shrugged them off and relished the challenge of getting out of the trees. It was one shot at a time with no thoughts of mechanics in my mind.It might only be one round and while this book clearly wont fix a fundamental swing flaw it has helped turn my mind off mechanics on the course and on to a positive approach where I am thinking, "Get in the hole!", not just, "I hope this goes somewhere on the green and clears that bunker...".Try it. This is isn't a book full of swing tips and I can't see how it could hurt you game, it has certainly helped mine. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well worth the read

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading

Golf may have moved on since this book was written, but psychology is still the same. Worth a read
