This is a great book. I heard a lot of positive buzz on it before buying it, and it more than lived up to my expectations. I think golfers of all levels can learn a lot from it and it much of it's content is original, stuff I haven't seen in other books on the mental side of golf. This is a quick, easy read and will give you great ideas to work with right away.

super great book focusing on how to improve your game by improving your mental and physical practice. nilsson and marriott really know their stuff having coached professional players like annika sorenstam and amateurs players from across the country. the lpga recommended this book to all of it's rookie players, and after dropping over 10 strokes on my handicap i highly recommend to amateur golfers everywhere.

Amazing! The best book I have ever read about training and competing in canine agility (my sport) is a "golf" book! I encountered "Every Shot Must Have A Purpose" while browsing a book store before Christmas and a quick read of a few pages convinced me to put it on my Christmas wish list. I, indeed, received it for Christmas and have read every word. I found it intriguing and am now re-reading it with highlighter in hand.
I am not a golf person - I don't play the game and I rarely ever watch it on TV. But this is not just a golf book. The philosophies and approaches to highly focused training and competing described by Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott (co-writer Ron Sirak) in this wonderfully readable short volume ring absolutely true and are applicable to almost any sport. I can't wait to apply them to mine.
No matter what your skill level, the lessons of this book have the potential to change your approaches to training and competing in whatever is your favorite sport (perhaps it actually is golf), to increase your success (however you define it) and to make you a happier and more satisfied participant.
A Sports (Golf) Psychologist's Review November 16, 2005

Pia and Lynn's book, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose, is a must read for those interested in improving their mental game in golf. I have studied almost every book on the topic and this is, by far, the best to date. I am providing my students with a copy before starting their training. I use the HeartMath biofeedback technology, as well as Bobby Foster's Mental Golf Profile which are highlighted in the book. Well organized, to the point, and practical strategies for immediate benefits. This is not wasted academic theory, or sports-psychobabble...it is the real deal.

Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott along with their co-writer Ron Sirak have continued to establish the gold standard of golf instruction, whether in person or through this book. I can think of no better place for all golfers - novice through elite levels - to start their journey to better scores and all-round fulfillment than this book. Not only will this book teach you how to become your own best coach by learning what you need to do to create your most successful swings under all conditions, it will impart personal development skills, knowledge and methods that can be used in other important areas of your life.
