In the year 2008, there were 8.6 million seniors playing golf.
That's a whopping 33% of the 28 million people who played. Even
with the growing boomer population, there has yet to be a book
directed specifically to golfing seniors. This is not another book
about swing mechanics. It's about the challenges people face as
they age, especially if they don't continue to stay fit and
healthy. And it addresses the common complaint of most senior
golfers, "I can't hit the ball like I used to." We want to show you
how you can improve your golf game and, as a bonus, live a longer,
healthier life. In this groundbreaking work we will show you: .
What creates the maximum power in a golf swing . Easy ways to
increase and maintain strength, flexibility and balance . How to
prevent injuries on and off the course . The one activity seniors
do daily that hamrs the body most . What to do about existing body
aches and pains . Which everyday foods can help your golf game .
How you can enjoy your round of golf more and still have energy to
enjoy the rest of the day with your family and friends . What is
your golf personality as far as needs, style and stress points, how
that affects your game and what you do to change it to lower your
score . How to stay focused on the course . How to become aware and
to change the negative thoughts and words about your game that make
your handicap rise . Alternative healing methods used by pros to
keep them fit and playing well . Why tour players add conscious
breathing to their pre-shot routine The book is divided into seven
chapters. Chapter I looks at what, besides arms, (the main source
of power for seniors) creates power in the golf swing. Chapter II
busts the conventional myths of aging and gives suggestions on how
to stay youthful and vital. In Chapter III, Dr. Cherie Smith, D.C.
describes the toll golf takes on your body and how you can
alleviate aches, paind and strains associated with the game.
Chapter IV offers great examples of strengthening movement you can
do at home, without purchasing expensive fitness equipment. Chapter
V talks about what Hippocrates said, "Eat as if your food is your
medicine and your medicine is your food." Many seniors complain of
loss of energy. Most of this comes from sedentary living and poor
nutritional habits. No preaching, only information to use as you
wish, with suggestions on how you may be able to cut down or
elminate toxic prescription meds. Chapter VI describes how you can
take control of your mental game. Dave Bisbee divides your golf
personality into a G (Tiger), O, (Jim Furyk), L (Sergio Garcia), or
F (Fred Couples), how these personality types will govern what you
do on the course and how you can use the information to better your
game - and your life. Chapter VII shows you how changing yor
self-talk will not only improve your mood but improve your game.
Discover how to stay in the present moment-one shot, one hole, one
round at a time. Even if you choose to make only one or two small
changes as described in this book, your life will improve
drastically. You'll wake up in the morning excited to have another
day to find the joy in life and after a great round of golf, be
able to rest comfortably, without aches and pains. This is unlike
any other golf book you've ever seen, sharing age-defying secrets
to a better game and a healthier life for you and your family.
