Review of Play Golf Better Faster: From Weekend Golfer to Pro Golfer in Two Years
[Following is a volunteer review of "Play Golf Better Faster: From Weekend Golfer to Pro Golfer in Two Years" by Kalliope Barlis.]
In Kalliope Barlis' "Play Golf Better Faster: From Weekend Golfer to Pro Golfer in Two Years," the lofty promise of transforming into a professional golfer in just two years may be a tad ambitious. However, the book does not fall short in delivering a treasure trove of invaluable insights and guidance for golf enthusiasts.
The book is intelligently structured into two distinct parts:
Part 1: The Fundamentals of Golf
Part 2: The Advanced Game
In Part 1, Barlis thoughtfully covers the bedrock of golf, encompassing topics such as grip techniques, swing mechanics, and the nuances of various clubs. She also provides valuable advice on refining putting and short game skills.
Part 2 delves into more advanced realms, including course management, shot selection, and the development of a resilient mental game capable of withstanding the pressures of competitive play.
Barlis's writing style is commendably clear and accessible. Complex concepts are demystified and presented in a manner that even novices can grasp. The inclusion of numerous illustrations and diagrams further enhances the book's accessibility, facilitating a deeper understanding of the content.
A standout feature of this book is its realistic approach to golf improvement. Barlis refrains from painting an overly optimistic picture, acknowledging the time and effort required to reach professional levels. Instead of making grandiose promises, she provides readers with a practical roadmap to achieving their golfing goals.
Another noteworthy aspect is Barlis's emphasis on the significance of mental fortitude in golf. She convincingly argues that mental resilience is just as crucial as physical prowess in the pursuit of golfing success.
While the book offers a plethora of strengths, it is not without its shortcomings. The promise of turning readers into pro golfers within two years might be perceived as overly ambitious by some. Additionally, the book could have incorporated more drills and exercises to provide practical application for the concepts discussed.
In conclusion, "Play Golf Better Faster: From Weekend Golfer to Pro Golfer in Two Years" is a valuable resource for golfers deeply committed to improving their game. Rating it at 4 out of 5 stars, the slight deduction reflects the ambitious timeframe mentioned and the potential for more practical exercises. Nevertheless, this book offers a wealth of insights and advice, catering to golfers of all skill levels who seek to elevate their game.
