Summary: The Mental Keys bridged the gap
Review: "I'm an avid reader of sports psychology books. This is as good or better than all the other stuff out there, including Rotella, Patrick Cohen and Michael Murphy. All the sports psychology books tell you what to do, but not necessarily why to do it -- your book bridged the gap".

Summary: He's a man of his word & his word will teach you better golf
Review: .
This will be the BEST [money] you will spend on your Golf game. I forget how I met Michael Anthony but I will not forget how his book changed my golf game. It was about 3 years ago that we met. I was so impressed with his book I helped him with his web site for NO money up front. I said when you get your book in front of people they will read it and they will start buying it and you will pay me. That is how much I believe in him and his book. This is not your average book on Golf. It teaches you the things that no Golf pro does or can in my opinion. This book has the ability to cut your score down even if you are not a great athlete but don't think the pro's can't use this book because they can and they do. A bunch of pro's on tour use Michael Anthony teachings. This book teaches you how to think your way around the course. Every time my score goes up a few strokes I read the book and it goes back down. I had the ability to play Golf and shot good scores (mid 70's) but most of the time I was in the mid 80's. This book has kept my average game over the last few years under 80! And I have not seen a Golf pro to work on my swing in that time. Golf is a game for life and so is this book. If you do not find this book helpful Golf is not for you! Great book!!

Summary: A coaches dream
Review: As a college golf coach, I highly recommend this book for all golfers. I have worked with golfers of all ability levels and realize that the mental training to golf is as important if not more important than the act of practice. The Mental Keys gives the golfer a foundation to improve on the mental side of the game. I know that any golfer who reads this book and follows the program will improve greatly! I highly highly recomend this book for any one who wants to improve their golf game.

Summary: Two thumbs up!
Review: I bought this book for my team during our spring season. We have continuely improved with each tournament since we began reading the book. I "idea" that has really caught on with our team is, "Desire without action equals WISH." We have been working very hard on positive actions and thoughts and it is paying off. We leave Saturday for the NCAA Golf Championships in Florida. Thank you Michael!

Summary: Average Mental Golf Book This Isnt!
Review: I have read many books on the sport of golf from Rotella to Cohn and this one is the first to approach the true mental side in a easily understood fashion. Other books explain what you need to do, this book explains not only what you need to do mentally but also how to do it. This is the best book I have read on the subject.

Summary: New horizons
Review: I have read several books on the mental side of the game, but it was not until Michael Anthony's Mental Keys that my game has started to improve considerably. It really has widened my horizon of what I now know I am capable of and has shown me a whole new level of possibilities in my own game. The Four Step Routine he describes helps me stay in the frame of mind that will allow for optimum performance. Not only have I taken off 10 strokes in a very short time period, I am also enjoying myself much more. By applying the "tools" from the book I know I will achieve my goals. I highly recommend The Mental Keys to anyone who is looking beyond the mechanical aspects of golf to lower his or her handicap.

Summary: Went in the trash the day I got it
Review: I never throw away books. I have every golf book I ever bought, except for this one. The author uses psychological premises that could be accurate, but VERY rarely applies them to golf. He states that these premises have been backed up by "leaders" in the field, but it seems more like he offered them a sound bite that they agreed with, then made it sound like they agreed with the whole book (common spinning). I guess that's why nobody really published this book...it's like a photo copied, spiral bound home creation. When the author's common psychological premises are applied to golf, the word "sales" is used at the same time. It's like he threw the words golf & sales in there only gratuitously to make this book seem like it relates to them (to hook guys like me). I felt cheated by this. The Amazon reviews were why I bought it, and I'm very surprised now that they are all so positive. As an alternative, I found the book "Eye on the Ball, Mind on the Game" very helpful for my mental game (it may be out of print, as I do not see it on the Amazon sight). I'm sure there are others too, that actually give mental golf analysis that applies directly to golf. By the way, I've improved my game by 15 strokes (so far) this year...at least 10 due to improved mental keys that had nothing at all to do with this book.

Summary: The Mental Keys
Review: I recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve thier golf game! A golfer of any level can benefit from this book. The Mental Keys focuses on mastering the process which leads to reaching your own specific goals. Many of us are too worried about the outcome. Michael's four-step routine is a process that allows you to stay in the present and learn from your past experiences. I have incorporated this into my own game and have become more consistent.
