About this listen
Jack Nicklaus does it. Tiger Woods does it. Michael Jordan even did it. Every great athlete in any sport has used the simple concept you'll learn in this book. But first, here is what this method is not:
It's not positive thinking, visualization, affirmations, hypnosis, Zen, yoga, or any other self-help method.
There are no drills, equipment, swing coaches, or other expenses. It's truly a Revolutionary Breakthrough in Sports Psychology.
The Six Magic Words is a scientifically proven way to allow the subconscious mind to direct the golf club in the most precise and stress-free way for each individual.
All without consciously trying. By studying not just the swings, but the attitudes of some of the world's best golfers - from Nicklaus and Woods to Jones and Vardon - best-selling author Sam Barlow, M.S. discovered a psychological trait in each of them that allowed them to perform at their best using a swing all their own.
It eliminates self-doubt and fills the player with a powerful 'knowingness.' The body is then free to act more out of reflex than slow-reacting conscious thought. It's easy, simple, effective, and fun. It can be used with other teaching methods to make them easier to learn.
It's a way to make each round of golf or practice session an enjoyable adventure instead of a demanding chore. The results are often instantaneous, and over time, the swing basically grooves itself. That's why Sam calls it The Self-Grooving Golf Swing.
It works if you've never held a club in your hands or you're a touring pro; if you're ninety years old or a four-year-old child, male or female.
As you use the Six Magic Words, your swing naturally adapts to your strengths and weaknesses. This allows the player to develop a swing that is not only powerful and efficient, but a lot less prone to injury, especially of the back.
Stop chasing your tail trying one swing fix after another. Let your subconscious do the work - and find out how good a golfer you can be!

It is no secret that more than two-thirds of the shots a golfer makes are shorts ones: putts, chips, and pitches. Long drives may garner applause, but whether a golfer wants to win the Masters or just five bucks from a friend on Saturday morning, it’s the little shots that make the difference. In The Unstoppable Golfer, Dr. Bob Rotella takes the same wisdom and experience that have worked for clients like Davis Love III and David Toms to help you master this special art of short shots and avoid all the frustration out of this increasingly challenging element of the game.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.
