In "Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book," Kalliope Barlis highlights vital skills and techniques that not only improve golf but are also crucial for maximizing life accomplishments. The primary emphasis is on the mind, promoting the use of neuro-linguistic programming to shape thoughts effectively. Barlis emphasizes the pivotal role of the mind in boosting golf performance and achieving desired life objectives. She then details the essential skills for mastering golf, addressing both physical and mental aspects. Additionally, practical steps to enhance the overall golfing experience are outlined.
 
This book provided me with valuable insights that I believe transcend the realm of golf, offering lessons applicable to various facets of life. Before reading it, I had limited knowledge of golf, which prompted me to delve into its contents. Not only did it pique my interest in the sport, but it also illuminated the brain's ability to blur the lines between imagination and memory, highlighting the power of our imaginations in achieving our aspirations. The author's thoughtful exploration of different types of golfers and scenarios, combined with the book's succinct and straightforward approach, enhanced its appeal and made my reading journey enjoyable.
 
At first, I thought the book lacked images until I discovered them in the appendix. But my dislike is that the placement of these images was inconvenient, requiring me to scroll to the end of the book to reference what the author had explained earlier and then return to the initial page. Nevertheless, this did not diminish my overall interest in the book, and aside from this aspect, there is nothing else I dislike.
 
I rate this book five out of five stars, despite the mentioned drawback. I found only two errors throughout my reading. This shows that the book was professionally edited.
 
This book is beneficial for both existing golf enthusiasts and those intrigued by the sport. Although its focus is on golf, the wisdom and techniques it presents are applicable not only to various sports but also to life in general, offering insights to enhance one's overall experience.
