Set in a small Oklahoma town in the emotional mid-1960s-a place that was simple but a time that was confusing- Flatbellies is partly about the seemingly unreachable goal of a high school golf team to win the state championship. Most of all, though, Flatbellies is about the way that Chipper, Jay, L.K., Buster, the unforgettable Peachy and their friends learn to deal with love, loss, friendship, fear, triumph, tragedy, growing up and growing old. And just when you think the author cannot come up with any more unique characters, someone name Smokey Ray Divine struts onto the first tee at the local golf course, and someone name Neander T cruises menacingly through the local teen hang-out.
Reviews: Bob Fagan - Golf Today Magazine "I found myself both laughing and crying... funny, poignant, inspiring, and absolutely terrific!"
Jack Savage - Foster's Daily Democrat "Call this classic coming of age novel Catcher in the Rough."
Dr. Bob Rotella's mental rules have helped some of the greatest golfers in the world become champion putters and, for the first time, are now available to golfers everywhere. In Putting Out of Your Mind, Rotella offers entertaining and instructive insight into the key element of a winning game -- great putting. As Brad Faxon, a Rotella devotee and one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, emphasizes in his introduction, "The secret of great putting is not in the stroke. It's in the mind. When you putt, your state of mind is more important than your mechanics." Once you can imagine yourself sinking a putt, you've exponentially improved your possibilities of actually knocking it in. It's an important lesson, and he learned it from Rotella.
