Review: Zen Golf: Mastering the Mental Game

Last weekend I had a rough time mentally, playing at a new course. I hit a few poor shots early and started getting self-conscious about my swing. Do I look like an idiot? Are these people I’m playing with laughing at me? What’s wrong with me? Have I completely forgotten [...]

Review: Bogey Killer

Bogey Killer by Michael J. Dikun is an eBook geared toward people looking to get themselves from shooting in the 90s or 100s to being capable of breaking 80. Breaking 80 is no small feat, as he mentions, less than 1% of golfers are capable of doing so. Michael claims that by reading [...]

Unfortunately, like Atkins vs. Ornish, one method may work for one person, [...]

Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf

This book was recommended to me by several serious golfers. Though a bit dry reading and very dated from a graphics perspective I still found it enjoyable.
