"Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book" by Kalliope Barlis is a fun and inspiring book that will improve your golf through mental training and neurolinguistic programming (NLP). It’s not just about golf; it’s a life book too.
 
The book is set up for both beginners and experienced golfers to get practical tips and techniques to improve their game. Barlis says mental preparation and positive thinking are keys to success in golf. By using NLP techniques, she shows how golfers can turn negative experiences into positive ones and boost their confidence and performance.
 
Barlis’ writing is clear, simple, and fun. She breaks down the complex into simple bits, so the book is for everyone. The quotes and personal stories make the advice more relatable. The illustrations and graphics help with the learning process and provide visual aids to the text.
 
One of the best things about the book is its holistic approach. Barlis doesn’t just focus on the physical side of golf but gets into the psychological bits that affect performance. Her emphasis on positive thinking and mental rehearsal can be applied to life beyond golf. The exercises and drills are practical and can be slotted into your daily routine.
 
But it’s not all good. The NLP focus is interesting, but some readers may find it a bit too abstract or hard to apply without more guidance. The book may also be limited to golf and NLP enthusiasts only and not self-help readers in general.
 
In terms of editing, the book is perfect. There are no typos, and the content flows from one chapter to the next. The professional editing makes for a smooth and enjoyable read.
 
I would rate “Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book” 5 out of 5 stars. The book is well written, informative, and offers a fresh take on improving your golf through mental training. Practical and holistic, it’s a great resource for golfers and anyone who wants to improve their mental skills. But the niche focus and abstract NLP may not be for everyone.
 
This book is recommended for golfers of all levels who want to improve their game and mindset. Also for NLP and mental training enthusiasts, as it provides practical applications of those concepts in a sporting context.
