Nine Fundamentals To Transforming The Game Of Golf & Your Life

Golfers know the sport is more than just a game. Golf requires patience while you master techniques that enable you to avoid double-bogeys. Transform Your Game: 9 Fundamentals of Golf That Will Change Your Life is a short and insightful book written by co-authors, Roger and Becky Tirabassi. Along with Becky’s brother, PGA Instructor, Rick Hunter, they offer nine steps to achieve success on and off the Golf course.

Like life, Golf is a game of transformation. Each chapter of Transform Your Game begins with wisdom from Golf Pro’s like Arnold Palmer to Ernest Jones. Throughout the book these simple and inspirational quotes are followed by useful advice like the first fundamental, “Begin With A Charge.” When faced with a challenge we can beat the odds by not letting setbacks on the course affect the rest of our game. This is true in life as well. The Tirabassi’s explain the key point to success is making a turn around and overcoming obstacles in our way. Such timeless advice can be found throughout Transform Your Game.

Fundamental 2 reminds us to “Practice Like The Pros.” Even the Pro’s find themselves transforming their game to achieve greater success on the course. In life it also takes time and discipline to improve our lives or learn a new skill.

Just as practice makes perfect we also learn to “Play By The Rules,” which is Fundamental 3 in Transform Your Game. Whether you’re new to the game or you’ve been around the course a few times you come to share a common bond with your fellow Golfers, respect for the rules. When we make a commitment to change it can be tempting to break the rules when no one’s looking. It might be as simple as sneaking a candy bar while on a diet. In 9 Fundamentals of Golf That Will Change Your Life Becky and Roger explain that true change comes by admitting our mistakes and sticking to the rules.

As avid golfers and respected experts on love, relationships, and balanced-living, Roger and Becky Tirabassi advice us in Fundamental 4 to “Develop A Green-To-Tee Strategy.” In following chapters we are encouraged to “Focus On The Shot,” “Overcome Hazards,” and “Build Confidence With Routine.”

The 8th Fundamental in Transform Your Game suggests we “Stay Calm, Play Calm.”

What Golfer hasn’t become frustrated after hitting a ball into a bunker or pond? Life is also full of ruts and pitfalls. The Tirabassi’s give us clear examples throughout their new book of challenges we may face on the course. How we chose to deal with any setbacks is the key to success in our game and our life.

There is more to Golf than just the skills you practice for hours. In order to succeed, Roger and Becky offer this bit of guidance in the last chapter, “Never Stop Believing.” It is our faith that helps us achieve the impossible. Faith will also see us through whatever we face in the game of Golf or our lives.

Swing into success on the course and in your daily life with Roger and Becky Tirabassi’s new book, Transform Your Game: 9 Fundamentals of Golf That Will Change Your Life.

Transform Your Game is the follow up to the Tirabassi’s popular book, The Front Nine: Nine Fundamentals of Golf That Will Improve Your Marriage. The Front Nine is built on powerful and proven strategies for achieving success in life, love and labor. In addition to advice from the Pros definitions of key words used on the golf course are used throughout this delightful book. What makes the use of these definitions unique is their association with circumstances that arise in our relationships as in the case of the word, grip.

The first Fundamental suggests “Loosen Your Grip.” In the beginning Golfers may tighten their grip on the club believing it gives them more control. They soon learn through experience that a tight grip can send the ball off in the wrong direction. The same can be said in regard to our relationships.

The Fundamentals of The Front Nine can help couples take strokes off their handicaps while enhancing their relationships. Fundamental 5, “Repair Divots Immediately,” explains the importance of replacing the divots on the course. Divots in relationships are “hurtful comments or inconsiderate actions that require a quick apology to keep your relationship happy and healthy.”

The Front Nine and Transform Your Game are lighthearted and insightful glimpses into the game of Golf and life for everyone. Both books can be order by calling 1-800-444-6189 or visiting either http://www.thefrontnine.com/ or www.transformyourgame.com.
