Publisher's summary

From the best-selling author of Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect, and the preeminent golf psychologist to the game’s top players, comes the defining guide to mastering the enormous challenges of chips, pitches, bunker shots, and putts.

It is no secret that more than two-thirds of the shots a golfer makes are shorts ones: putts, chips, and pitches. Long drives may garner applause, but whether a golfer wants to win the Masters or just five bucks from a friend on Saturday morning, it’s the little shots that make the difference.

In The Unstoppable Golfer, Dr. Bob Rotella takes the same wisdom and experience that have worked for clients like Davis Love III and David Toms to help you master this special art of short shots and avoid all the frustration out of this increasingly challenging element of the game. Requiring extraordinary levels of concentration, the short game is typically a source of fear for amateurs and pros alike. Here Dr. Rotella teaches listeners how to overcome that fear by using their minds to achieve a state of calm in which focus is on one thing alone: the hole. In addition, he explains the science of memory and how knowledge of the brain’s workings—especially those areas that deal with physical tasks—can markedly improve a golf game, particularly when it comes to getting out of a bunker or taking the measure of a long putt.

For casual and dedicated golfers alike, a better short game provides one of the ultimate pleasures of the game—a pleasure they will come to know by training their minds with The Unstoppable Golfer.

Rotella at his best ...

Rotella is always the best "checkup from the neck up" for any golfer. The lessons of "Not A Game of Perfect" with updated spin and new phraseology. Lose some of the magic after a few years, this brings it back.

This book does a great job of describing how to execute mental performance. Not only has it helped my golf game, it’s has helped my students as well. Thanks!

excellent book for the aspiring golfer

I loved this book. I first read, putting out of your mind and then this. I will say the wisdom gained really helped my game. I went from normally scoring in the low 80s to mid 70s. Actually, the first two rounds after reading/listening to these books were a 77 and a 75. two records back to back all by remembering to be confident in my ability and slamming the door on the negative thoughts that tend to creep up during a round. Highly Recommend!

Standard Bob Rotella Golf Book

Any additional comments?

I like Bob Rotella. I've read (listened) to all of his books. There is an element of repetition but the approach is still valid and entertaining.

This is a great book for you head!

I'm in the middle of a slump and need all the help I can get. Bob's voice alone is very calming and he is so sensible in his approach. I am learning to get out of my own way and listen and learn from him. Great book to listen to over and over again just to remind yourself of simple strategies to get back to the way you were or get better than you are. Love it. Going to buy his newer book that's from 2015. That's next....I wish I could hire him for in person sessions but that's probably not going to happen any time soon!!! Enjoy

Will improve your game

Dr Rotella explains in simple understandable terms the mental aspect of the game and the importance of the short game. It works and lowered my scores.
