Be A Player

"Golf is a beloved yet technical game, so a sound swing and precise technique are essential. Most golfers who want to improve their skills go to the range and work painstakingly on their swings, not realizing it's often their performance state on the course that needs work, not their technique. Simple things such as awareness of your balance, tension, and tempo, as well as the ability to control mental, emotional, and social variables you encounter while playing can quickly take your game to a new performance level. Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott, founders of VISION54's ... golf program, are here to help"--

Two legendary coaches give golfers a powerful new approach to the game... and to life. As coaches to some of golf’s top players, Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott have designed and refined a revolutionary way of teaching the game, with phenomenal results. They don’t believe in prescribing the same stance, grip, and swing to everyone, followed by hours of purposeless drilling. They don’t even believe in beginning with physical technique. Their success has proven to them that a great game begins with a great vision. Unlike any other golf book, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose offers cutting-edge techniques for integrating the physical, technical, mental, emotional, and social parts of a player’s game. The book’s revolutionary pre-shot routine will improve your focus, leading to a golf swing that is not only successful but can be repeated under extreme pressure. Emphasizing the individual golfer rather than a rigid set of mechanics, their VISION54 method takes the frustration out of the game. Why 54? Because they believe it’s possible to shoot a 54 (making a birdie on every hole of a par-72 course) if you have the right mind-set and well-honed intuitive power. An engaging read for the beginner or the seasoned golfer, Every Shot Must Have a Purpose is inspiration for life, not just the links.

After getting her heart broken by a player again, Whitney Porter is done with men. She’s focusing on her future career and her first assignment at the college newspaper: posing as a sports writer for an exposé on the extra perks jocks receive. But Hudson Decker, the bad boy of the hockey team, is about to test her resolve. To keep herself from breaking her no-sex rule with the temptingly tattooed athlete, she decides to use him for a side project, Anatomy of a Player, to help Whitney—and women everywhere—spot a player, learn what makes him tick, and how to avoid falling for one. With his life spiraling out of control, Hudson Decker’s looking for a distraction. When his teammates bet him that he can’t land the gorgeous but prickly new reporter, he accepts the challenge, boasting he’ll have her in bed by the end of the semester. But Whitney is so much more than Hudson expected, and soon, he’s in too deep. The last thing he needs is another complication, but staying away isn’t an option. One thing’s for certain: this girl totally throws him off his game. Each book in the Taking Shots series is STANDALONE: * Getting Lucky Number Seven * Anatomy of a Player * Crazy Pucking Love

The country music superstar shares what the guitar has meant to him as a means of finding his own voice, who inspired his love of music, and memorable stories about the great guitar players he has encountered over the years.

This isn’t for the guy who wants to win the girl in apartment 2B, or the one who wants to date the cute girl in his Western Civ class, or the girl that sits alone in the coffee shop. This book is intended for the guy who wants to fuck all three girls. Sure, if you want to use this book as a means of “winning the heart” of such said girl, cool. I won’t tell anyone you used a book designed to get multiple women at your disposal. The ones who are tired of not having stories to tell. The ones who are tired of getting rejected and want to be ‘The Man”. The Player is a chameleon. Comfortable in any surrounding. Can be in a room full of Eighteen-year-old girls and then in a room full of Fifty-year-old women and still feel comfortable at least half the room would sleep with him. A Player is like a Mob Boss, everyone knows he committed the crime, but it can never be proven. You are always going to be indicted, you should never be convicted. Some of you on these dating sites/apps send pics of your dick to a girl, before you even say hi. Are y’all for real? No Dime is going talk to you doing that. That porn you watch warped your brain. Those are paid actresses. If you don’t have the cash, you ain’t getting a Porn Star (talking from experience). Anyway, the problem with a lot of you guys is that you don’t know how to talk to girls, either because you are scared or you simply don’t know. Before you know how to talk to girls, you must look right first. If you look like a scrub, no girl is going to hear what you have to say. So Player, let’s get to it and go from wack to mack!
