The 30-Second Golf Swing: How to Train Your Brain to Improve Your Game

This is not a conventional golf instruction guide. If you're looking for his titles on the mechanics of the golf swing, then the list is long. Break 100 Now: From Hacker to Golfer in Just 90 Days How to Break 90: An Easy Approach for Breaking Golf's Toughest Scoring Barrier Total Golf The LAWs of the Golf Swing: Body-Type Your Golf Swing and Master Your Game This book sensibly outlines a method to play to your full potential. This is a true book covering the mental game through using your mind to prepare through evaluating yourself. So you can hit a straight 250 yard drive, but can you chip, putt or hit approach shots with equal accuracy? There are several methods that the author improves your game through self assessment and self critique. Through a detailed analysis, you determine your strengths and weaknesses. Additionally, the author focuses upon positive thinking and target oriented play. What this book focuses upon are mental keys. A valuable section is what 'not' to do. I admit the concept of reading golf strategy is quite dry. There are boxes that feature vignettes that tend to keep your attention. Through my personal experience in playing and reading, I do what is outlined to a great degree to improve my game but this book really ties everything together that I learned along the way. It is more practical than Harvey Pennick's book, through more concrete plans, or even Raymond Floyd's, Master's Guide of Scoring. The Elements of Scoring: A Master's Guide to the Art of Scoring Your Best When You're Not Playing Your Best Harvey Penick: Little Red Book A complementary subject to this book, written by a different author is another book that I recommend: Golf: The Mental Game I recommend this book to a beginner who has had some lessons and plays with some regularity. This is also good for a player in a plateau in their golf potential. Lastly, this is a good book for those people who have a natural talent/temperament for the game but want to make it to the next level.

I am glad I bought it; I am sure I will keep coming back to it from time to time.

I have started applying the suggestions found in this book and have found a marked improvement in my game management. Everything suggested by T.J. Tomasi is based on personal and teaching experience and as such is invaluable information for us as golf-players-trying-to-improve.

If you are a golfer, this book is a must read.

Don't buy this book if you're looking for golf swing mechanics. Do buy this book if you'd like help on your mental approach to the game. This is what separates good golfers from great golfers, inconsistency from consistency, and frustration from enjoyment.
