Publisher's summary

Dr. Joe Parent, PGA tour instructor, executive performance coach and best-selling author of ZEN GOLF: Mastering the Mental Game and ZEN PUTTING: Mastering the Mental Game on the Greens, has drawn on a career coaching the masters to write a hundred easy to understand yet powerful tips for improving any golfer’s score, from the essentials of the mental game to helpful hints to keep your composure. As with his other books, you will find yourself returning time and again to hear what Masters and PGA Champion Vijay Singh call “lessons that make the mental game seem so simple”.

golf review

Would you listen to GOLF: The Art of the Mental Game again? Why?

yep it was good

What did you like best about this story?

it had some good insight into helping my mental game

Did Dr. Joseph Parent do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

only negative thing which put me off was his voice sends me to sleep. I could only listen 30 mins at a time otherwise i would dose off.

Must read for golfers

If you are a golfer, you must discover Parent. His work is a profound combination of Buddhist perspectives and cognitive therapy. This stuff is head and shoulders above the rest of the golf psychology material on the market (I'm a Psychologist). Play this book while you drive. You can listen in short visits-over and over again. (BTW: I do not know Parent or have any biz interest in his products).

College coach

I like the simplicity of being able to share with my team. Many of the concepts can be shared easily

100 good tips

This is a great book and I listen to it on repeat during golf season. He goes through 100 numbered tips (with explanations and full gamelans).

Golf is played between the ears. This book adds necessary tools.
