Visual-Imagery Lessons to Improve Every Aspect of Your Game

For decades, golfers have been using visual imagery to mentally rehearse their shots. Jack Nicklaus, winner of more major championships than any other golfer in history and an avid proponent of visualization, prepares for each and every shot by creating mental pictures of the swing he wants to make and the ball flight he wants to produce. But not until Mitchell Spearman has anyone come up with a systematic approach to mastering every aspect of golf by means of dynamic visual imagery.

Spearman's visualization techniques are a true advance in golf instruction: In addition to the traditional mirror-image photos showing ideal form, AIM of Golf gives you actual and imaginary views. Actual imagery is the positioning of your stance, your grip, and the rest of your body as you yourself will see it when you're standing over the ball. Each imaginary viewpoint uses a familiar non-golf object as a metaphor--and a practice drill--for the proper motion: For instance, a peach placed behind the clubhead is a visual reminder to bring the club back smoothly. Together, Spearman's three types of visualizations, presented in more than 250 full-color photographs, provide clear and simple cues to the physical movements and sensations that will improve not only your full swing but all the major areas of your game, including putting, chipping, pitching, bunker play and other trouble spots, and slicing and other common faults. AIM of Golf will make the game of golf more fun by showing you the secrets to ensuring that the perfect shots you picture in your head become the actual shots you hit on the course.

Revue de presse

“Mitchell Spearman only has to watch someone hit one shot before he immediately breaks down their swing--flaws and all. He is a great instructor, he has helped thousands of golfers, and now, thanks to AIM of Golf, thousands more will get the help they desperately need.” —Jim Nantz, CBS Sports

“AIM of Golf cuts through all the technical difficulties associated with most how-to books and teaches you how to play better golf on a much simpler level--through the use of visual imagery. Whether you want to add 10 yards off the tee or just escape the sand more often, there's an image here that can work for you.” —David Allen, Associate Editor at Golf Magazine

“Mitchell Spearman has the four things you want in a golf instructor: a razor-sharp eye; an exceptional understanding of the swing and its history; a nonpareil way of making even complex swing concepts understandable to every level of player; and an ability to make his students have fun.” —Rick Lipsey, Golf Writer at Sports Illustrated
