About the Book
Have you ever asked yourself these questions:
- Why is it so hard for me to play golf?
- Why does my brain seem to go blank at the top of my backswing?
- Why can't I feel as though I KNOW where the ball is going?
- I've taken the lessons and read the books, what's missing?
- I understand what they're saying, so why can't I seem to improve?
- Why can't I seem to do what the instructors are teaching me?
- Why?
Can you play softball or baseball pretty good? How about tennis, or hockey? Then why can't you be just as good playing golf? It doesn't make sense, does it?
This book explores a whole new approach to the PURPOSE of the golf swing. It does not teach swing mechanics, but rather focuses on helping to change your perception of actually what happens during the golf swing.
There is no cure-all for the golf swing; there never will be. It's all in our heads. If we let our brain take over, we will be amazed at what we can do!
Keeping our minds focused on what it is that we're trying to do and not on how to do it, allows our brain to make the necessary changes to accomplish that task, automatically.
I'm not a pro, and never will be. This book is not perfect, not complete, and not the answer. But golf is beginning to be a lot more fun!
About the Author
Dr. Gerry is an amateur golfer. His thought process is free of any mechanical and technical jargon. As a health care professional he has been trained to ask the question "why". Why is this patient ill or in pain? What is the cause? Why did it happen? He has been trained to look for the cause of disease or pain and not simply treat the symptoms.
Dr. Gerry has taken this training and applied it to his golf game. He understands the brains amazing ability to control the body. This new "swing thought" has changed his game 100%. He's not a pro and never will be, but golf is beginning to be a lot more fun!
He was fortunate to have been asked to treat the players at the 1998 Sarazen World Open Golf Tournament. He worked with many PGA and European Tour players including Brad Faxon, Payne Stewart, Bernhard Langer and Mathias Gronberg. He was also asked to provide care for the players at the 1999 John Smoltz Celebrity Golf Classic.
