Synopsis

Great ball strikers play with feel and imagination, skills rarely acquired by average golfers. Golf and Brain is about the fascinating workings of the brain that enable us to visualize, experience and create golf’s singular event – the moment of impact that determines the flight of the golf ball. All elite players learned to make the ball travel the way they want. No matter how long you’ve played, you, too, can learn the way they did. Golf and Brain: it’s the lesson you never had!
