Product Description:
The authors of the smash hit Every Shot Must Have a Purpose put the golf back in golf practice, with a revolutionary approach that replaces rote sessions with dynamic, proven drills.
As coaches to golf’s top players, Lynn Marriott and Pia Nilsson have created brilliant new mind- body strategies for every aspect of the game. With The Game Before the Game, they showcase their unique approach to practice, with winning techniques that ensure those hours on the driving range and practice green aren’t wasted on reinforcing bad habits.
The authors identify three essential types of practice:
• Warm-up: getting not only the muscles but also the mind in gear
• Maintenance: intended to prevent your swing from drifting between rounds
• Preparation: adding numerous new shots to your repertoire
From there, the authors outline pro-tested drills that help you find your swing rhythm, visualize success off the course, simplify putting, break through skill plateaus, and much more. Each chapter concludes with a memorable “swing key” for translating practice into success during the real thing.

You must be willing to practice with some determination for this book to have value. If you are willing, you will find a lot that is useful here. Good golf involves a heightened mental state that increases focus and concentration. It's easy for concentration to lapse, especially on the practice range, where shots can get thoughtless, hurried and mechanical.
The principal thesis of this book is that focus and concentration can be learned, just like the more technical and mechanical aspects ... Read More

The book reads like a 200+ page brochure of their Vision54 programme. Some of the 30-minute practices makes you wonder what is the purpose of hitting shots with your eyes closed, feet together, one leg off the ground, etc. Perhaps, the purpose is better articulated in a lesson with the authors. The authors also try to be holistic including mental aspects of the game. In the end, it feels like the authors are trying to cover too much in one book and doing none of the topics justice. Then again, it is difficult ... Read More

This book, "The Game Before The Game" is an intricate part of improving one's golf game. It explains and trains one to incorporate the same focus and enjoyment of playing the course, with the process of focused practice. It has helped me to change my attitude of practice from a workout, to an extension of fun play. The book is well written with easy to follow instructions, which helps any player apply to one's practice routine. I look forward to seeking opportunities to practice areas which will most improve my ... Read More

As a teaching pro, I constantly see people over practicing... or hitting range balls with no target and no concentration. They are grooving sloppy habits, and often wonder why they dont improve. This book has some awesome drills to make practice more course like. And to begin making practice and playing one in the same. Definitely recommend this for anyone looking to improve their practice sessions, as well as their complete game.
