Every Shot Must Have a Purpose
While I was in California my sister-in-law took me to a very nice golf store called Roger Dunn (near the Mission Viejo Mall). One of the things I bought while I was there was a book called Every Shot Must Have a Purpose by Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott. This has turned out to be a really great book and is changing the way I think about my strokes and my scores. The front flap says,
“Unlike any other golf book, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose offers cutting-edge techniques for integrating the physical, technical, mental, emotional and social parts of a player’s game. The book’s revolutionary pre-shot routine improves a player’s focus, leading to a golf swing that is not only successful but can be repeated under extreme pressure. Emphasizing the individual golfer rather than a rigid set of mechanics, their VISION54 method takes the frustration out of the game.”
Now, I recognize that the book flap is meant to make high claims for the book so that people will read it, but in the case I have found it to be true. When I apply the principles of the book my shots are much better. So, I highly recommend this book. It has a foreword by Annika Sorenstam and she recommends it highly as well.
