Golf has 3 competitors – other players, the course, and yourself. Leaderboards measure how you performed against others; score against Par measures how you performed against the course. The GYRA Mental Scorecard allows you to measure your performance against your primary competitor – yourself - per shot, per hole. This is a game-changer. “You may never play golf the same way if you start measuring your mental performance on the golf course.” Gary Player, World Golf Hall of Fame “With the introduction of the GYRA Mental Scorecard, you are now able to track your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors to be able to better yourself for future situations.” Jason Gore, Player Relations, USGA “GYRA tools have given me the skills to manage my emotions and thoughts throughout the up’s and down’s of tournament golf.” Seamus Power, Olympian, PGA Tour Player “I have been coaching college golf for 20 years. The difference between a good vs great player is usually their mental approach to the game. The idea of having a scorecard for golfers to describe and track what is happening in their mind is groundbreaking.” Tim Straub, Davidson College “This book should be required curriculum for golf academies, teaching professionals, caddies, and players.” David Ross PGA Lifetime Member, Ross Academy

A highly original and groundbreaking book from a noted PGA coach and Buddhist instructor • “The lessons in Zen Golf make the mental game seem so simple. Dr. Parent has given me very effective methods for working with thoughts and emotions, and for taking the negatives out of the picture.” —Vijay Singh, Masters and PGA Champion By combining classic insights and stories from Zen tradition, Zen Golf helps eliminate the mental distractions that routinely cause poor shots and loss of concentration, allowing golfers to feel in “the zone” that professionals have learned to master. The best players know that golf is a game of confidence, and most important, concentration–the ability to focus and block out distraction. The goal of achieving clear thought is also at the heart of Buddhist teachings. PGA coach and Buddhist instructor Dr. Joseph Parent draws on this natural connection and teaches golfers how to clear their minds, achieve ultimate focus, and play in the moment for each shot. Zen Golf presents a simple system for building “mental game mastery.” Dr Parent’s unique PAR Approach (focusing on Preparation, Action, and Response to Results) guides golfers with specific techniques for each aspect of their games. In chapters such as “How to Get From the Practice Tee to the First Tee”, “You Produce What You Fear”, and “How to Enjoy a Bad Round of Golf”, the author shares a personal teaching regimen that has helped improve the games of professionals and amateurs alike. Clear, concise, and enlightening, Zen Golf shows golfers how to prepare for, execute, and equally important, respond the results of any golf shot. A different approach to golf instruction, this book shapes ancient philosophies into new teachings.

“ Golf. It’s what lights us up. It’s our passion. That light you have that is yours and yours alone. It means more than you know to others, without even trying to impress them. It inspires, enables others to rise. It makes people happy.” Craig Cantwell is well known as a journeyman millionaire and 'the best professional golfer who has not won a major.' His successful life as a tour pro is shattered when he is suspended from the PGA Tour. Without a place to compete and with a personal life tangled with drama, Craig has to find his way back to a life he knows. His fight is not with the scions of the tour, the public, or the scores of great golfers who would be his opponents. He has to prevail over the toughest of adversaries - himself. 18: A Novel of Golf and Life beautifully tells the story of Cantwell and those in his life: Rachelle Keys, the mother of Craig's daughter and a heroic FBI Agent; Kelly Keys, the new 'IT' girl of golf; Thomas Kincaid, agent and lawyer to the rich and scandalous; And Seth Reede, the personal development guru with a past more shocking than any fallen hero. Far more involved than just a tale of athletic triumph, 18: A Novel of Golf and Life is a story of forgiveness, truth, courage, and redemption. Fans of Micheal J. Murphy's Golf in the Kingdom, James Patterson's Miracle at St. Andrews, and and J. Michael Veron's The Greatest Player Who Never Lived will love this book for its equal parts of life, love, philosophy and golf.
