The on-course coach for every golf bag! Tour-proven strategies created by two of the world’s best and most highly regarded golf coaches – LYNN MARRIOTT and PIA NILSSON. –––––––––––––––––––––– DAVID LEADBETTER, PGA Tour Coach – “The VISION54 approach is far more than just pure golf technique, it allows an individual to unlock their true potential by opening their mind and believing anything is possible to achieve.” ARIYA JUTANUGARN, LPGA Tour Player, 2016 Rolex Player of the Year, winner of the 2016 LPGA money title and Race to the CME Globe title – "With Pia’s and Lynn’s coaching, I went from being scared on the golf course to being happy and confident. I’ve learned ‘human skills’ to manage myself in almost every competitive situation – and I use them every time I play.” KEVIN STREELMAN, PGA Tour Player – “VISION54 is the best golf/sport/life/happiness program ever developed, bar none!” DR. GREG ROSE, co-founder Titleist Performance Institute – "When it comes to improving your game, Lynn and Pia and all the experts at VISION54, are the real deal. Coaching golfers to reach their best, takes a lot more than knowing how to swing a club. Their techniques are simple, effective and proven with all levels of players. Do yourself and your game a favor and read this book.” –––––––––––––––––––––– • SKILLS – Drills that make it easy to learn VISION54’s Human Skills of the Game. • PRACTICE – Sessions to complement your technical practice. • PLAY – Exercises to simulate play and improve Human Skills on the course. • GAMES – Increase creativity and add variety to your practice. • NOTES – Track your personal golf journey and create the golf future you want. Download the app to help you become a better player of the game! Created to benefit all levels of play: professional tour players, aspiring amateurs, junior golfers, and weekend warriors. –––––––––––––––––––––– We target the whole person, not just the technical aspect of the game. Our main goal at VISION54 is to help golfers not only swing better, be more fit, manage your mind or putt better, but to make sure you as a player can transfer these skills and perform better on the course where it matters. We believe: Technical Skills x Human Skills = How Well You Play Learning how to manage yourself before the shot (Think Box), during the shot (Play Box), and after the shot (Memory Box) – and in between shots – allows you to become your own best coach and be a HAPPY + BETTER GOLFER. –––––––––––––––––––––– About VISION54 Lynn Marriott and Pia Nilsson are internationally recognized co-founders of VISION54 and are both featured among Golf Digest’s 50 Greatest Teachers and ranked as the #1 and #2 female instructors in America. Thousands of golfers from around the world – with all skill levels – have attended their #1 ranked programs and experienced the game changing concept of VISION54. They have coached players to well over one hundred tour victories on the LPGA Tour, PGA Tour, European Tour, Ladies European Tour, and Japan Tour. They’ve coached nine different major winners and three #1 ranked players in the world. Marriott and Nilsson are co-authors of four best-selling books – Every Shot Must Have A Purpose; The Game Before The Game; Play Your Best Golf Now; and their newest release, Be A Player, where the focus is on YOU and YOUR game.
