Kalliope Barlis’ “Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book” is an exemplary guide for golfers of all levels who want to improve their game using a combination of mental conditioning and hands-on exercises. This carefully crafted manual promises, and delivers, a complete system that can turn weekend players into professionals in as little as two years.

The book is structured so that it begins with important mental techniques which create the base for physical play. Baris introduces readers to Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a powerful way to change thinking patterns and improve performance. Among these are visualisation techniques and sensory enhancement drills aimed at increasing focus and mental clarity – both crucial elements for any golfer striving towards peak performance.

Practice is one area where this book really shines. Rather than promoting quantity, Barlis promotes quality through her 15:5 formula – 15 minutes of focused practice followed by a 5-minute break. This ensures continued engagement from golfers while reinforcing what they have learned. Target awareness on the course can be enhanced through practicing from different angles/different distances simulating real-game conditions.

Finally, practical strategies for playing golf are provided in the last section. From approach angle to wind handling or putting perfection – nothing is overlooked here! Arguably best among these tips is Barlis’ pre-shot routine guidance which encourages mindfulness during execution of shots.

Positive reinforcement makes this guide unique among its peers. Successful shot memories should become positive ones according to Barli’s advice while negative experiences may need replacing/reversing instead; thus building confidence but also keeping players motivated enough throughout rounds of golf so they actually enjoy themselves!

Chuck Hogan wrote the foreword and experts in professional golf endorse this work as well worth reading because it includes relevant stories alongside usable advice.

One thing that might make someone take away a star from their review would be the heavy dependence on NLP techniques used throughout the text since some people find such methodologies less reliable or tangible than traditional sports instruction methods limiting broader appeal especially among those who prefer more conventional training approaches.

“Play Golf Better Faster” isn’t just another manual about hitting balls better; it’s an eye-opening guide addressing both mindsets behind swings & bodies involved during them too! With her knowledge base coming from NLP combined with practical application insights found throughout Barlis’ writing, any player looking to improve performance should consider this book essential reading regardless if they’re beginners or veterans who want unlock new levels within themselves while enjoying every minute spent playing their beloved game!

For being all-inclusive innovative practice methods featuring mental conditioning focus—“Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book” deserves five stars across board because everyone should read it before taking up golf again at any level above beginner status!

The book, written in a formal style without any flaws or any dislikes that doesn’t hurt me or no reason to deduct the stars., offers readers original ideas and promises to appeal and motivate them so that they may attain higher levels of success in golf. Readers of this 5 out of 5 stars manual are guaranteed the best kind of book on how to use NLP for improving their performance on the golf course.
