"Play Golf Better Faster" by Kalliope Barlis is geared towards avid golfers looking to seriously elevate their skills and on-course performance. While mastering the subject of the golf skills improvement, Barlis is able skilfully and systematically reduce the complexity and at the same time keeps the bigger scope of the idea in mind.
What sets this book apart is Barlis' incorporation of NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) techniques to enhance performance. Combined with her smooth narrative flow, clear examples, helpful illustrations, and motivational quotes, she provides a masterclass in elite-level mental focus and swing thoughts. She applied the same techniques to her game, which increases trust in her ways.

Barlis has delivered as promised; the pocket guide is a substantial asset containing knowledge, smooth writing, good quotes, mind focusing exercises, and a host of useful images - certified tools to beat the game without a sweat. However, the occasional dry section means it narrowly misses a perfect 5-star rating. A few more anecdotes or humorous asides could have further livened up the load.
Overall, "Play Golf Better Faster" rates 4 stars out of 5. The NLP techniques and visuals are highlights, and the holistic tips make this a highly recommended read for golfers of all levels seeking to elevate their skills and mindset.
