    Just Hit The Damn Ball! Series

    About this series

    Have you ever hit a perfect shot? Can you recall the effortless feeling?

     

    The secret to re-creating those shots consistently is learning how to access your natural ability.

     

    The gorilla is a euphemism for your latent ability that lies beyond swing mechanics. 

     

    Traditional golf instruction is based on technical perfection; the tacit assumption is that natural instincts are wrong and must be constantly suppressed. You've probably heard the expression that if "something feels right, it's probably wrong." This paradigm leads the once-a-week golfer into an endless cycle of fault-finding and error correction. This constant focus on mistakes creates a mental prison that stymies your ability to just hit the damn ball!

     

    If you've ever hit a perfect shot, then you have the ability. All you need is the recipe. Learn how to stop repeating past mistakes.

     

    Do you invest more energy reviewing swing faults or recalling your best shots? If you struggle to break ninety consistently, then the answer is obvious. 

     

    Based on lessons with over eleven-thousand "average" golfers, The Gorilla Is Loose! is the second book in the award-winning Just Hit The Damn Ball! series. This easy to read, non-technical book, follows the struggles of Randy W, a 14 handicap golfer who has grown increasingly frustrated with his lack of improvement. Randy invests in lessons every season, plays once a week and wants to score in the eighties.

     

    Does this sound familiar?

     

    Your golf game is a by-product of the mental and physical actions you follow as soon as you arrive at the golf course. In golf jargon, these actions are known as "comfort zones".  The phrase refers to a sequence of thoughts and actions that have become habitual or unconscious. They start from the moment you park your car until you walk off the eighteenth green.

     

    The first step for "breaking out" is awareness. Park in a different space. Tee off with a different club. Stop beating yourself up after a poor shot. Once you start breaking the chain of events, then you are free to release your gorilla and experience the essence of the game. 

     

    Ben Hogan is credited with the axiom that "golf is a game of misses - whoever misses the game wins!"  

     

    All the lessons, practice and new equipment will not lead to lower scores until you learn how to overcome common misconceptions about how the game should be played. Trust your instincts and let results be your guide.

     

    If you're trapped in an endless cycle of trying to fix your swing, then let this book be a catalyst to help you play better than you ever thought possible!

      Readers' Favorite International Book Contest Award Winner!   Ninety percent of the game is mental. If you've ever hit a perfect shot, you have the ability. All you need is the recipe.   Just Hit The Damn Ball! is an easy-to-read, non-technical book that will help you unlock your true potential.   The biggest roadblock to improvement for the "average" golfer is dwelling on mistakes. This method leads to an endless cycle of fault-finding and error correction. The "secret" to unlocking your true potential is the ability to stop thinking for 1.5 seconds and just hit the damn ball!   How long have you played? Are you constantly improving? Do you take lessons every year but only see marginal improvement?   If you've been "spinning your wheels" trying to fix your swing, this book will help you:   discover your natural ability. develop empowering habits. build patterns of success. knock five strokes off your score without changing your swing. Traditional golf instruction is based on the premise that every natural instinct must be constantly suppressed.   Have you heard the axiom "if it feels right, then it's probably wrong."    How does this paradigm help the once-a-week golfer develop a consistent swing?   Have you ever wondered why you can hit solid shots on the practice range and go to pieces on the golf course?   You're not alone!   One of the biggest misconceptions in golf instruction is the concept of muscle memory. Is muscle memory real or just an excuse for a lack of improvement?   Get ready to overcome the mental roadblocks of traditional golf instruction.   Your best golf is waiting...
