Sherman has a wonderful way of blending practical knowledge, data insights, and sports psychology to provide very actionable advice on how to improve one's game. Also, anyone who follows Jon on social media will find a lot the same things discussed there covered again in the book.

I am confident a golfer of any level can pick up this book and take their game to the next level with just a few of the many lessons within.

I still have a long way to go, but I'm glad I picked this book up so soon after picking the game up again in my mid-30s. A lot of it has to do with how challenging the game is and how good it feels to have those moments where we think we figured it out. Conversely, those who genuinely want to improve and love the process find ways to problem-solve to reach their goals and outperform.

In my quest to become a better tournament player, it became apparent by watching other golfers and benchmarking my performance that these were also problems that needed to be solved. For example, knowing you are almost always better off getting closer to the hole, as long as you avoid hazards (water, bunkers, deep rough) or out OOB.

It was great to ground my expectations with actual stats of what people with similar handicaps (or even better handicaps) are doing. While you can reference specific areas of Jon’s book directly without issue, I highly recommend you read Part 1 first. Then I spent hours of meaningful practice to settle on a wedge technique that I could feel comfortable with. What I read the book for didn’t come until the last 100 pages and again, was nothing ground breaking or new. I have seen immediate improvement in my game, and many others too - not because of technical advice, but due to course management strategy and an improved perspective while playing.Jon's book does a fantastic job of always keeping the eye on the prize, which is improving your game. You can’t become the golfer at the top of your mountain (which is different for each player) without climbing through some mud at the bottom. You can finally get all of the methods he's used to become a scratch golfer and coach other golfers in one complete guide.
