Sports:
PAR EXCELLENCE - A Revolutionary Way to Learn to Play Golf
I learned to play golf at 65 and currently shoot in mid 80s. In the first year, my score was well above 100. Then I created a process that put a new and revolutionary spin on learning how to play golf. Results speak for themselves. In less than two seasons and went from shooting around 120 to low 80s on one of the toughest and a championship regulation course. I realized that I have stumbled upon something marvellous. I have inadvertently unlocked the secret of turning a person who never played golf into a better than average golfer. Shooting in 80s in your seventies is not something to be sneezed at … unless if you have a cold. I did it by focusing on the process where the results were its byproduct. When I started golfing, I discovered a problem that I am not a swinger. I know what you’re thinking. But, no, not that kind of problem. Well, let me explain. Swinging anything is not natural to me, especially an awkward, long stick with a hooked end trying to hit a tiny ball sitting precariously and few feet away from me. So, rather than paying thousands to golfing schools or private instructors, I engineered a process for the game to fit into my ability, rather than for my aging body to fit into the game. The book tells a hilarious tale of three retired engineers inventing a basic process based on its fundamentals to shoot in 80s. This book is likely to be refuted by golfing instructors and golfing schools but then, hey, I understand, no one likes competition. The most enduring mystery of playing golf consistently good is finally unraveled.
