Perfect your mental approach to your game To be a golfer is to tinker—with everything from equipment to grip to swing. But one thing most players don’t give enough attention to is the mental game. Psychologists aren’t a new phenomenon in golf, but Dr. Michael Lardon is a different breed of performance coach. Instead of sending his players into a losing battle against emotion, indecision, and fear on the golf course, he shows them how to organize their thoughts and use them for maximum performance. His step-by-step Pre-Shot Pyramid provides any player with the ideal blueprint for shot setup. And his revolutionary Mental Scorecard will give you the tools to accurately measure what you really do on the golf course and how to make real, permanent improvements. You will learn the same techniques that Dr. Lardon shares with Phil Mickelson and dozens of other tour players, including the tools that helped Mickelson right himself after the 2012 U.S. Open to win the British Open a month later with a historic final round. Mastering Golf’s Mental Game will change the way you think about golf, and is a must-read for any player serious about shooting better scores and getting more enjoyment out of the game.

Mastering Golf's Mental Game: Your Ultimate Guide to Better On-Course Performance and Lower Scores

No matter what level of golf you play, the space from 100 yards to the green is the scoring zone. You need the right skills and strategies to maximize your chance to convert more birdies, save more pars and avoid more big numbers. One of America's preeminent short game teachers has created your complete guide to executing those shots. 
 Todd Sones has taught winners on every major tour, and has been recognized as both a Golf Magazine Top 100 and Golf Digest 50 Best Teacher. In The Scoring Zone, he reveals the same secrets and strategies that make up the curriculum of his sought-after scoring schools outside Chicago. You'll learn the three shots you need to get at any pin from any lie—the low trap, high toss and explosion—and both the "how" and "when" to play each. With better technique and more confidence, you'll be able to transform your scorecard. 
 “The shots you’ll learn in this book will get you asking better questions around the green, and feeling more confident that you have the best answers. The Scoring Zone will help you reduce your unforced short game errors, and have more fun when you play. I’m excited for you to read it.”—STAN UTLEY, Golf Digest 50 Best Teacher and PGA Tour winner 
 “Todd’s book is filled with terrific short game information, but it is much more than that. He gives you an organized way to incorporate the information into your game to really improve your score. I recommend him—and his book—to anybody who wants to play better golf from 100 yards in.”—MARTIN CHUCK, Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher 
 “In The Scoring Zone, you’ll find the key elements to building a short game that will be the envy of your playing partners. I’ve been fortunate to have Todd’s help during my career, and his reputation as a top teacher speaks for itself. Use the fundamentals in this book and I promise you’ll see that scoring average come down. I know mine has.”—JOE DURANT, PGA Tour winner 
 “I’ve known Todd for more than 20 years, and he’s a professional through and through. His excellent teaching skills have made the difference for everyone from PGA Tour players to high-handicappers. It’s very refreshing to know a person who cares so deeply for helping players get better.”—STEVE JONES, 1996 U.S. Open champion

Organize Tomorrow Today helps readers to move past their performance roadblocks and achieve more productive lives.

Organize Your Team Today: The Mental Toughness Needed to Lead Highly Successful Teams

"One of the ten best leadership books so far this year." -- Bloomberg 
Following up the popular peak performance book Organize Tomorrow Today, a new plan to motivate, set priorities and lead any team to optimal achievement 
Watch a triumphant speech after a sports championship or business milestone and you'll almost always hear some variation of this catchphrase: "It couldn't have happened without the great team we have." It doesn't matter if you're the owner of a 10,000-employee Fortune 500 company or running a small business, you're a part of a team. With a combined 50 years of experience building, managing, advising, and troubleshooting teams in both the business and sports worlds, Jason Selk and Tom Bartow now reveal the common DNA that links the highest performing teams. 
In Organize Your Team Today, Selk and Bartow show how it takes collective mental toughness to win, developed only through a clear understanding of the goals, limitations, roles and personalities on your team. Great leaders respect and embrace channel capacity, Selk and Bartow explain, which means they don't overload their teams with blizzards of tasks and responsibilities. They bust the "focus" and "relationship" fallacies, as those words are meaningless for teams unless they are byproducts of activities that really matter. And Selk and Bartow teach how to manage expectations, since doing so creates a level of respect between the leader and the team -- and among the team members--that is a catalyst for peak achievement.

Golf Digest Top 50 Teachers like Dave Stockton, Jim McLean and Tim Mahoney credit Ed Grant and Subconscious Golf for influencing their own teaching of the mental game, and they have incorporated Ed's techniques into the day-to-day lessons they give. Players at every level have used Ed's techniques to win tournaments and lower handicaps—from major champions to state amateur champions to club champions and flight winners. Ed teaches these concepts as a fellow golfer, in a way that is easy to understand and apply no matter your skill level. 
 Many recreational players dismiss mental game strategies and instruction as only appropriate for low handicap players. In reality, players of any handicap level can cut more strokes from their handicap more quickly with the simple to understand and implement strategies in Subconscious Golf. Ed has used the concepts himself to improve from a self-taught player who first picked up clubs as a college student to top rank amateur player with club, local and regional tournament victories to his credit. Ed first introduced these concepts in the 1970’s through seminars he led for the PGA of America, the National Golf Foundation and PGA Sections all across the U.S.
 The original Subconscious Golf program was a series of eight cassette tapes recorded at those seminars—where he shared the stage with teaching legends like Wiren and Bob Toski. Consistent demand for the material prompted two small revisions and a release on CDs in the 1990s. In 2012, Ed undertook a comprehensive expansion and revision of the material with the help of Golf Digest Senior Writer Matthew Rudy, who has ghostwritten books and articles with players and teachers like Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, Dave Stockton, Hank Haney and Stan Utley. This newest version of Subconscious Golf includes volumes of new material in the form of a 160-page instruction book, and a set of high definition instruction videos designed to accompany and expand upon the text. The videos feature Ed and Golf Digest Top 50 Instructor Tim Mahoney, who works with more than a dozen tour players from his base in Scottsdale—and is also Ed’s personal instructor. To get access to the videos and download a digital edition of the book, email your Amazon order number to info@subconsciousgolf.com. 
 "Ed Grant can help you get better, no matter what kind of swing you have. I know he's helped me, both as a player and a teacher." -Dave Stockton, three-time major championship winner 
 "Ed's material has been an integral part of my teaching ever since I heard his tapes many years ago. It's fantastic information." -Jim McLean, Golf Digest Top 50 Teacher 
 "Ed Grant's Subconscious Golf is something any player can use to think better on the course—from junior golf to the PGA Tour. It's a textbook for shooting lower scores." -Kevin Weeks, Golf Digest Top 50 Teacher
