ABOUT THE BOOK

About The Book

The Big If is a golf mental game book written for families and coaches. It analyzes a young player’s head between shots, why confidence collapses quickly at that age, and how parents unknowingly raise the stakes. Every chapter is built around real junior rounds and the conversations after the game, so the lessons can reach the kids who have felt that pressure before.

It can be called a golf parenting book, as it asks what your role actually is once your child steps onto the first tee, and whether your voice helps, or hurts. You will find practical work to build mental toughness for junior golfers, pre shot routines that survive pressure, and honest guidance for the seasons when your player wants to quit the game entirely for good.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING

I have read plenty of sports parenting books and this is the best junior golf book of all. It named things I was doing on the course without noticing. My son can lose games, but now our drives home are a lot better.

As a coach, I hand this book out constantly. It is the golf mindset book I wish existed when I started. The chapters on pressure gave my players language for what they feel, and that alone changed how they compete.

Ok, this is hands on the best golf mental game book I have picked up so far! Didn’t expect this to hit me so right. I will definitely apply the pointers I have noted here in my next game, hoping to see one result.
