Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect
Book • 1995
Filled with insightful stories about golf and the golfers Dr. Rotella works with, this book focuses on creating an attitude and mindset that enhances all aspects of a golfer's game, from mental preparation to competition.
Rotella stresses the importance of confidence, a positive attitude, and persistence.
He advises golfers to train their swing mechanics during practice and trust them on the course, focusing on targets and strategy rather than mechanics.
The book also highlights the need for a pre-shot routine and the importance of staying in the present and avoiding distractions during the game.
