INSPIRATIONAL January 10, 2008 W. Terry (uk) This book is quite superb. It forces you to look at why you play golf - readers will be surprised!!. It asks you to look at the way we learn all other physical motor skills, and compares it to how we 'typically' learn to play golf - you wont be surprised, but you will certainly be enlightened. If you are in the UK, and you read this book, you may want to look into the teaching of Kendal McWades insttinctive golf. Well done Fred, you have produced a masterpiece.
Rotella does not even come close... June 10, 2007 Sandy MacDuff (Germany) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What a fantastic book. The first time I read it I was so intrigued by the club throwing exercise that I missed most of the other messages that Fred was writing about. Having now read the book several times, it is now all the other stuff he talks about that intrigues me. Thanks to Gallwey and Murphy, I had already started to play the game with more joy, but Fred has helped bring me to a new level. I am also a golf coach and, like Fred, have been searching for a better way to coach my students. It's a pity I didn't come accross this book sooner as I would have coached myself and others much better and we could all have played in a more peacefull state. Thanks Fred. Buy it, read it, try it. It is just fantastic, natural, and extraordinary.
unconventional but superbly readable January 6, 2005 Not your conventional book of how to play the game better but well worth a read. The club throwing sequence is excellent at highlighting how we should just let it happen... Will certainly aid the enjoyment of your game

A bit boring. More on the mental game from some veteran mental gamesters. Bob Rotella did it better with a less portentious tone.
Hielped me fall in love with the game again March 27, 2001 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I came home from a golfing holiday recently with the intention of giving the game up. Although the company was great the golf was awful - i got worse throughout the week until i felt like i had never held a club before and i have been playing for 20 years. BUT i had ordered this book before i went and it was waiting for me on my return. I read it from cover to cover that same evening and i was truly inspired. I resolved to practise what Fred preaches and guess what - he's right. Forget the theory, get into the game. Although my handicap has not yet tumbled i feel it will at any moment - and even if it doesn't the fun is what matters. And the best part - more fun = lower scores! Read this book with an open mind and it could change your game and your life.
