Dr Bob
Rotella's 'Putting
Out Of Your Mind' will
help you to create a
whole
new positive attitude towards your golf
putting game, and his key message in this excellent book is: 'take
your satisfaction not
from
whether the putt drops but from whether you got yourself in the right
frame of mind to hit the putt'.
Dr
Bob Rotella believes that one of
the reasons for poor putting is
because many golfers allow the negative effects of the conscious mind
to have too much of an influence. 'Putting Out of your Mind' will help
you to understand how you control your mental processes and eliminate
these influences .
