Has anyone else got this book and does anyone have have any thoughts on it ?

I am getting it for Father's Day, the online reviews seem quite favourable.

Should be an interesting read.
 
I have a copy. Its good but it's about five thousand words too long. It could be edited down to about 5 bullet points. I don't regret buying it but I think it's better aimed at people who are able to practice almost every day.
 
Did get it for Father's Day.
Have skimmed some bits of it, will wade through it at some point. Certainly not what I expected. Possibly aimed more at coaches than players.
I actually found a few of the things he recommends have already been mentioned to me by the pro who I am having lessons with
 
Got to admit, mines been on the side for a couple of months now and I'm half way through. It gets pretty deep and technical with the mental side of "winning". Must get on to the drills section and see what all the fuss was about, but have a feeling you need to practice everyday to nail the drills...
 
I've got it. Skipped through most of it, just got to more of the practical side and the practice drills. Not sure how reading 20 pages on SMART objectives is going to help my golf TBH.
