Overview

Bob Rotella is a golf coach who has set out to help golfers revolutionize their mental habits. In this book, he explains his method of mental game management that has helped golfers attain their goals. Rotella's maxims include: play every significant round of golf with a game plan; accept the results of any shot, no matter how bad, and go on to the next one; select the shot you know you can hit, not the shot Arnold Palmer would hit; choking occurs when golfers let anger, fear, or some other extraneous factor distract them before a shot.
