Play Golf Better Faster: The Classic Guide to Optimizing Your Performance and Building Your Best Fast by Kalliope Barlis presents a unique approach to improving golf performance by focusing on mental conditioning and practical strategies. The book is structured into three key parts: mental preparation, practice techniques, and on-course strategies. Barlis highlights the significance of mental visualization, encouraging golfers to mentally rehearse their shots for better outcomes. The author shares her journey from a low-income background to becoming a skilled golfer, providing inspiration and relatability. Each chapter includes actionable exercises designed to reinforce positive habits and enhance focus. Additionally, the book addresses the importance of physical well-being, offering tips for maintaining a youthful body to support optimal performance. This guide is perfect for golfers seeking to elevate their game, simplify complex concepts, and cultivate a more enjoyable golfing experience, regardless of their skill level.

Kalliope’s writing style is warm and encouraging, which makes me feel supported throughout my learning process. Her positive reinforcement and belief in the reader’s potential inspire me to push through challenges and strive for improvement. I’ve found that many of the mental training techniques and principles discussed in the book can be applied to other areas of my life, not just golf. This versatility has enriched my overall personal development, helping me improve my focus and resilience in various situations. I also appreciate how the book encourages self-reflection. It prompts me to think about my goals, motivations, and the mental barriers I face. This introspective approach has helped me identify areas for growth and has made my practice sessions more purposeful.

I encountered some negative aspects of the book while reading. The book briefly touches on equipment but doesn’t delve deeply into how the right gear can impact performance. As someone who invests in equipment, I would have appreciated more insights on how to choose the right clubs and gear for my game. I therefore rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. This book was exceptionally well-edited without errors. This book is ideal for those who are new to golf and looking for a comprehensive guide to understanding the game. It provides foundational knowledge and practical steps to help them get started on the right foot.
