Like no other sport, golf obsesses those poor souls who hope to master its subtleties and abundant complexities. One shot is hit like a dream, the next a nightmare. As a result, the game's disciples have embraced any and all techniques endorsed by pros and hackers, poets and philosophers (these days a good walk is often spoiled by tripping over a sandtrap's worth of Zen meditations and mystical tomes). But while so many have journeyed through golf's metaphysics, no one has presented a readable, compelling look at the science of the game -- until now. In Newton on the Tee, accomplished science writer John Zumerchik examines, explores, and explains to us the endless details that make golf such a tantalizing pursuit. Written in language accessible to even the most scientifically disinclined, Zumerchik's book delves into areas of supreme importance to every golfer, including: The Physics of the Sweet Swing: The universal principles shared by all those rhythmic and well-timed swings you see on TV but not in the mirror Mind Over Muscle: How the brain affects and controls the movements of the body (and why confidence is the golfer's most indispensable tool) Getting the Ball from Here to There: Decoding the vagaries of launch angles, spin, lift, and gravity that make the difference between walking happily down the fairway and tramping into the bunkers Probability and Statistics: Understanding the mathematics of golf, and a by-the-numbers appraisal of golf's greatest legends With a firm grasp of both his subject and his 7-iron, Zumerchik takes the reader through all these topics and more, in an entertaining and enlightening work that will give every golfer something to chew on besides his or her nails, and make clear and comprehensible the hundred-and-thirty-five things you shouldn't think about during your backswing.

In The Four Cornerstones of Winning Golf, Butch Harmon teaches you how to strengthen your game by balancing four areas that are equally important to your final results: ball striking, the short game, the mental side and course management, and physical conditioning. The result is an evenly proportioned approach to mastering the whole game of golf.

Sport psychology book detailing the mental processes of PGA Tour players. Teaches readers HOW to think more effectively so that they can perform better and shoot lower scores on the course.

Golf can be a vexing and cruel game, and teaches us much about ourselves. It has been described as “a contest calling for courage, skill, strategy and self-control. It is a test of temper, a trial of honor, a revealer of character.” In the end, as with most of life, success hinges on the character and spirit we possess. But how would our tempers be tested if we suffered a career-threatening injury from a near-fatal car accident, as Ben Hogan did in the prime of his life? How would our honor be preserved if we faced constant derision and racism both on and off the golf course, as Charlie Sifford encountered his entire career? How would our character be revealed if cancer robbed us of the ability to play the game we loved, as it did to Babe Didrikson Zaharias? Would we give in to self pity, or persevere and keep going? In Trials and Triumphs of Golf’s Greatest Champions: A Legacy of Hope, Lyle Slovick has pulled together the inspirational stories of six golfers and a caddy whose strength of character sustained them against the physical and emotional trials that threatened both their careers and lives. In an era when many athletes have lost their luster as role models, the people in this book—Harry Vardon, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan, Babe Didrikson Zaharias, Charlie Sifford, Ken Venturi, and Bruce Edwards—offer lessons in perseverance, dignity, humility, and faith. Slovick tells each of their stories with rich detail, including the childhoods that shaped their characters, their rise in the world of professional golf, the crises they faced in their lives, their struggles to keep doing what they loved, and their refusal to give up. They had their flaws, to be sure. But when faced with a true test of will, all showed a strength that inspired those around them. The first book to gather the stories of these golfers into a single volume, Trials and Triumphs of Golf’s Greatest Champions offers a unique blend of characters who shared the same love for a game that gave them the courage and fortitude they needed to face whatever life threw their way. This book will not only interest golfers and fans of the game, it will also inspire those who have suffered their own personal setbacks and show them they are not alone in their trials.

'The pro tour's hottest coach' (Golf Digest) distills the lessons of a private strategy session into an indispensable 'soft skills' companion. Credited with transforming the short games of world-class golfers like Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, Annika Sorenstam, and Yani Tseng, Dave Stockton is one of the most sought-after coaches in golf. Yet Stockton's natural abilities are more like the average player's than those of most tour superstars. Not particularly long off the tee and average in terms of ballstriking, Stockton has won multiple major championships through a willingness to set his ego aside and analyze his game objectively - precisely what make him so effective as an instructor. The hallmark of Stockton's coaching is the idea that 'trying doesn't work.' He shows students how to get out of their own way and let their subconscious take over. In Own Your Game, Stockton recreates the experience of riding eighteen holes with him at one of his highly sought-after corporate outings. He explains how any player can learn to use his or her mind effectively - both in the microcosm of the shot at hand and in plotting a way through a round and gives players the tools and the freedom to play better with the swing they currently have. 'Dave is a creative thinker, and he sees things others don't. He has his finger on the pulse of what it takes to play at the highest level.' Paul Azinger, major-championship winner and 2008 Ryder Cup captain'While studying professional golfers in the early 1980s, my mentor, Dr. Richard Lister, told me to look to Dave Stockton as an example of a player who is superb at getting the last drop out of the lemon. What he meant was, Dave has been the best at using his mental skills to get the very most from his physical skills. Having had the honor of working with Dave and more than three hundred other professional golfers since, I can confirm Dave's gift and passion for not only getting the very most from his own golfing skills but also from those of any golfer who aspires to do the same.' Dr. Deborah Graham, sport psychologist and author of The 8 Traits of Champion Golfers'Dave Stockton can help you simplify your approach, clear your mind, and make better decisions on the golf course. He's helped me become a better player, and I know he'll do the same for you.' Rory Mcllroy, two-time major-championship winner'To play your best at the most important times, you need to be comfortable. Dave shows you how to play confident and free. It's alot of fun!' Suzann Petttersen, two-time LPGA major-championship winner'Dave has proven methods that helped him achieve success on the course as one of the all-time great putters. His insight and positive mind-set helped me tremendously, and I would recommend him to anyone looking to improve.'Annika S�renstam, LPGA Hall-of-Famer and eight-time Player of the Year
