The book “Play Golf Better Faster: The Classic Guide to Optimizing Your Performance and Building Your Best Fast” by Kalliope Barlis is an excellent resource for golfers of all skill levels.
Divided into three sections, this invaluable guide covers how to use your brain, practice your game, and play your game, offering unique insights not found in other golf books. The book emphasizes the importance of practice, as highlighted by the quote:
“Practice is called practice because you are always in the process of mastering your technique regardless of how well you are at doing it now.”

The book’s innovative approach focuses on training the brain to achieve optimal golf performance, regardless of the challenges faced on the course.

The book also introduces methods for golf improvement by combining Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) with traditional instruction. This unique blend creates a mental toolkit that is applicable to players of all skill levels, making the book engaging even for non-golfers. In my opinion, the author does a fantastic job of providing insightful tips based on personal experience. This book offers valuable insights and tips for golfers looking to enhance their performance on the course, covering various aspects of the game, from swing mechanics to mental strategies, providing a comprehensive guide for players of all skill levels.
By seamlessly integrating NLP principles with golf instruction, the author provides readers with a fresh perspective on improving their game through mental strategies.

One aspect I particularly appreciate is the book’s practical approach to enhancing golf performance. The author offers clear and concise instructions, supported by helpful illustrations and diagrams, making it easy for readers to apply the techniques discussed. Additionally, the emphasis on mental aspects such as visualization and focus add depth to the book, setting it apart from typical golf guides.

What I found fascinating is that, despite never having played golf, I realized that much of the book’s content is applicable to any sport. Additionally, the book’s philosophy is so profound that it can be applied to life in general. The engaging writing style keeps readers motivated throughout.

I would rate this book 4 stars out of 5 since the book could not force me to stick to read in one go due to it's detailed writing. Give it a read and learn how to play golf better, faster.
