Review of Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book
[Following is a volunteer review of "Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book" by Kalliope Barlis.]
The book "Play Golf Better Faster: The Golf Bag Book" by Kalliope Barlis is a must-read for any aspiring golfer aiming to turn pro in just two years. Divided into three parts – Using Your Brain, Practicing Golf, and Playing Golf – each section delves into various aspects. The captivating forward by Chuck Hogan sets the tone, emphasizing the book's focus on the secret to becoming a great golfer rather than mechanics.
Part one details how Kalliope's coach used neuro-linguistic programming techniques to teach golf effectively. It highlights the belief that everyone can change for the better, utilizing resources within. The section guides readers through exercises to optimize their mindset shot by shot, emphasizing the link between thinking and performance. Rejecting the idea of a perfect swing, it explores the concept of the right swing, making golf easier with a better understanding.This part also discusses arousing senses through pleasant sights, sounds, and feelings, emphasizing making every shot awesome. Notably, it introduces the swish pattern for changing golf shots and achieving excellence. Part A concludes by encouraging readers to envision their future golf game and plan accordingly.
Part two begins with questions to consider before practicing, advocating for comprehensive improvement during practice sessions. Target awareness is emphasized during gameplay, promoting continuous improvement. The section advocates for practicing with mastery in mind, introducing the fifteen minutes practice and five minutes rest formula for reflection. It addresses skills, basics, and practical tips for various lies on the course. The part ends with insights into practicing at home and applying the gold formula wherever sensible.
Part three focuses on playing golf, emphasizing target selection and strategic decision-making. It provides pre-game questions and encourages recording performance on scorecards. The section delves into strategies, both internal and physical, and emphasizes routine maintenance. Practical techniques like aim and align and ready, set, go are introduced. The 19th Hole stories conclude this section, adding real-world context.The book concludes with an appendix featuring pictorial representations of golf techniques, motions, and scorecards. It provides guidance on what readers can do next to further their golf learning.
Overall, "Play Golf Better Faster" is an excellent guide for aspiring and amateur golfers seeking a two-year path to professionalism. The vivid descriptions and pictorial representations make it a valuable resource. I rate it 4 out of 5 for its comprehensive coverage and practical insights.
