Just Hit The Damn Ball!: How To Stop Thinking and Play Your Best Golf: Volume 1

Reader’s Favourite Award Winner!

Have you ever hit a perfect shot? You have the ability. All you need is the recipe.

Golf is ninety percent mental. The axiom sounds impressive but what does it actually mean?

The first step to building a consistent swing is harnessing the memories of your best shots.
Traditional golf instruction is based on fault-finding and error correction. This method creates an endless process of trying to "fix" your swing.

Is it any wonder the majority of golfers struggle to break 90 consistently?

Consistency is not perfection. The obsession with technical perfection is the biggest roadblock to improvement for the once-a-week golfer.

This non-technical book is based on a conversation between a golf instructor and an older gentleman who meet by accident during a golf vacation. During the pregame practice, the instructor cringes as his playing partner hits a succession of slices, tops and shanks. Preparing to spend the day looking for lost balls, the professional is stunned as his geriatric playing partner shoots 75!

Frustrated and curious, the instructor offers to buy the post-game beer in the hopes of gleaning secrets from the senior. The professional learns valuable lessons during the post-game conversation as endemic flaws in traditional instruction are gradually revealed.

Do you wonder why can never play as well as you practice? Why do you repeat the same mistakes game after game? Do certain holes always rise up and bite you? Do you take lessons but only see marginal improvement?

The answers to these questions are hot topics of the post-game conversation.

The simple lessons are based on results with over eleven thousand “average” golfers. This book is part one in the series that will help you discover the natural ability that lies beyond swing mechanics.

If you've ever hit a perfect shot, then you have the ability. All you need is the recipe.

Are you ready to play better than you ever thought possible?

Your best golf is waiting...
