Confidence, as every golfer knows, is the key to peak performance on the greens. ZEN PUTTING builds your confidence through a thinking-outside-the-box approach that helps golfers of all levels get out of their own way and roll the ball better than ever. In chapters such as “Already in the Hole,” “Stop the Bleeding,” and “Turn Knee-knockers into Tap-ins,” you’ll find the insights and methods that will help you take your putting to the next level, with more consistency, less frustration, and lower scores. Using his distinctive blend of sports psychology, Zen wisdom, and practical golf instruction, Dr. Joseph Parent shares the lessons and practice exercises that have dramatically improved the putting of PGA professionals and amateurs alike.

In clear, concise chapters, ZEN PUTTING covers everything from warm-up and practice programs to the ideal routine for setting up to and executing a putt. You’ll discover how to synchronize body and mind to make your smoothest stroke time after time and build your confidence round after round.

ZEN PUTTING brings a fresh perspective to the art of putting, leading golfers to the effortless focus and confidence of being in the zone, the feeling that they can make every putt they look at. It is a book all golfers will want to return to again and again.
