Kurzbeschreibung
Do you play your shots like you do in your head?
You've just played two great shots to get onto the green and then fluffed the easiest of putts! How did that happen? Surprisingly it has little to do with your ability. It comes down to something you may never have considered; it's habit. Habits can make you do things you really didn't want to do, yet most golfers remain unaware of their influence.
The innovative techniques in this book will help you breakthrough the performance limiting
habits holding you back and let you take greater control over your game. You'll learn how to
* eradicate those annoying mistakes more easily than you could ever have imagined * increase your distance by using less effort * improve accuracy by not trying * simplify your golf
You'll discover how to get into The Zone, the ultimate state in which to play at your peak - and take your game to levels beyond your expectations.

After reading GOLF SENSE first of all I reduced the time on the driving range.
Less is more like Roy Palmer says. "The more you try, the more the muscles will contract, reducing sensitivity and ultimately the control over the club" (page 137). It has been a very helpful advice. With the thought in my mind "let the club do" I enjoyed relaxed rounds on the course, had fun and most of all better results. This is only one great part of the book. I really recommend to read GOLF SENSE to discover all the other interesting practical tips. Thank you Roy!

Anxious to Try it Next Spring!
10. November 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
I was originally inspired by this golfing inner peace (or getting in the zone) from the movie The Legend of Bagger Vance - the scene on the tee when Bagger is explaining to Junuh why Bobby Jones is so good ("he's in the field"). To me, there's just something about letting go of all the BS in your head, getting out of your own way (mentally) and just letting your natural swing emerge - it just sounds like the way a golf swing is meant to be executed.
So as I digested Mr. Palmer's book, I felt his writings and exercises (many of which can be done without a club and while you're actually reading the book) would really help me find that happy place to exist in during a round. For example, he points to tension in the swing as a major cause of poor play - tension that you may not even know you have since habitually, you've swung the same way for so many years.
But realizing the cause of your poor golf shots is only the beginning. Golf Sense is packed with simple ways to put you in (and keep you in) a calm and relaxed state of mind on the course (which will translate into a more relaxed swing, and subsequently lower scores). I have to say, I'm anxious to give it a try.

Insightful and refreshing look at the mental approach to playing your best golf
19. Juli 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
If you have played golf for even a short time you have hit shots that came off the club perfectly, high and straight, to the target with very little effort. You may have even experienced short stretches on the golf course in which everything seemed easy. Of course we have also followed those perfect shots with a low hard hooks that ended up out-of-bounds.
Roy Palmer helps us understand what makes us take a great swing one time and such a poor swing the next in his book "Golf Sense, Practical Tips On How To Play Golf In The Zone". Through a series of self observations, and practical exercises he illustrates that "less is more" when it comes to the golf swing. By eliminating unnecessary movements in our pre-shot routine we are able to relax, quite our minds, and begin to focus on feeling the correct movement.
One exercise that worked for me as soon as I tried it was "Poised For Success". The author suggests that we stand in golf posture address and image a sting attached to the top of your head pulling you up so you get taller at the same time image the ground pushing your feet up. Try it for yourself and tell me if that doesn't help you get into a great athletics position.
This book is a insightful and refreshing look at the mental approach to playing your best golf. The author challenges us to evaluate our concepts on how to move our bodies and face bad habits we may have developed in the golf swing. By staying away from useless swing thoughts and technical mechanics we are taught to focus of the fundamentals of movement that allow us to get into The Zone. In the end we can all be better golfers by putting the ideas in the book into practice.

20 Year Golf Teacher Gives High Praise...
29. Juni 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I'm a golf teacher. I've owned a driving range in West Columbia, SC (Par-tee) for 20 years and I teach a 100 people or more every year.
I love this book and have used the author's suggestions with my students (and on myself) with great success. Over the years I believe I've tried and read everything about golf. This is something new. I'm reading the book again now for the 2nd time.
I was working with a USC football player today - he was was so encouraged because he finally got what it means to not try so hard. The terminology in the book is helping me help my students better understand what I am trying to tell them. The part about not clenching your teeth is so simple and yet so profound. When this student (and myself, when I tried it) followed Palmer's instructions wee noticed that we were freer to swing and felt lighter on our feet. It really works! My student and I both felt encouraged and excited.
This material helps you free your mind. That's something I've been trying to get across to students for years. This book has given me the language and tools to express that. The terminology found here is very helpful and it's reinvigorated my teaching and my game. Every golfer should read this book. In fact I'm giving a copy to one of my favorite customers, the USC Golf Coach. A lot of my other favorite customers want my copy, I don't want to give my copy away so I'm sending them here!

This was entered in for me by my daughter, Suzie Price, since I don't 'do computers' - I play golf!
