Review of Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book
"Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book" by Kalliope Barlis offers a fresh perspective on improving your golf game. Instead of focusing solely on swing mechanics, Barlis introduces techniques that address both the mental and physical aspects of golf. This balanced approach makes the book suitable for golfers at all levels, whether you are a beginner or have been playing for years.
I like the manner in which this book simplifies complex ideas as one of the strengths of the book. The key points are dissected in simple language that Barlis uses while writing the news. There are three sections to the book: to play golf, to practice golf, and to think in a way of golf. Each part is filled with practical tips that one can easily understand and incorporate into their daily lives. For instance, Barlis focuses on the importance of the preliminary psychological state and the great impact that a proper state of mind may have on the performance on the course. Unlike many books that only give mental approaches, this book also has physical staking besides the mental ones. Barlis gives detailed advice on how to improve your grip, swing, and stance. Her recommended practice routines are as efficient as it can be. She also offers useful drawings to enhance the understanding of her recommendations and how to implement them even more. Her illustrations make her remarks easier to understand. The chapter that I found most useful was the one, which described the ways to improve different types of shots and over all stability.
I particularly liked the positive outlook on things that the book has, it really motivates you to do better. Barlis tells a success story of her transformation from a layman to a professional golfer, which is motivating. She goes on to detail how she applied the concepts of the book to reach her objectives, thus bringing the message of the book that there is always room for enhancement if one is willing to work for it. This personal touch gives the advice a human face and makes the readers feel like they are being advised by a friend.
Still, the book may be a bit too much for the people who are completely new to the subject. It is important to note that some of the techniques and strategies that have been discussed here would be quite complex to some of the learners who are new to the subject. It might require going through the content severally to be able to understand all the ideas in it. Still, it is a good book that can help all those who want to enhance their skills in golfing. The text is free from major and minor mistakes and it makes the reading process much more enjoyable.
"Play Golf Better Faster: The Little Golf Bag Book" is an essential read for golfers due to its blend of mental and physical strategies and motivating ideas from Barlis. This is why I give it a rating of 5 out of 5 stars. This book contains inspirational and useful information that will help you improve your game and have more fun, whether you are a beginner or an expert. I recommend this book to people who are new to golfing.
