His hits included “I’m Eighteen,” “School’s Out,” and “Welcome to My Nightmare.”

But he’s got more than that one flamboyant dimension: Over the years he’s had friendships with such legends as Groucho Marx, Salvador Dali and Peter Sellers, and his new memoir chronicles how he replaced his addiction to alcohol with an addiction to golf.

Golf Fitness Magazine leads golfers to healthier, happier, longer golf life

Publication created to get more people into the game, keep them playing longer

WINDERMERE, Fla. — The look of golf is changing. With physical fitness programs set forth by Tiger Woods and Annika Sorenstam, both men’s and women’s professional golf has gone on a fitness regimen. It’s time for the rest of the golf public—the people who really need it to get on board. Golf Fitness Magazine is stepping to the forefront to lead golfers from all generations to a happier, healthier and longer golf life.

Buoyed by the success of a regional launch in the spring of 2007, Founder and Publisher Steve Gomen is taking the magazine national this July.

“Look at the numbers,” says Gomen. “Of the 25 million golfers we will be reaching out to, 70 percent are ailing or playing with an injury. Sixty percent cannot physically make the proper body movement that will allow a mechanically correct swing. The 40 percent of this group that already possess the physical ability, would be interested in gaining more yards, more control, more endurance and becoming physically conditioned to play safer and longer.

“No less than 35 percent are already avid with their fitness, health and wellness,” Gomen adds. “Research suggests that the remaining group of golfers, when introduced and educated about the topic, will want to participate as well. We will be the guide for all golfers to optimize their physical abilities and enjoy the game for a complete lifetime.”

Because of the potential impact Golf Fitness Magazine will have on both the golf public and golf industry, Gomen has established an advisory board of experts in both the fitness and golf industries to form and editorial direction for Golf Fitness Magazine. In addition, he has developed a staff of award-winning writers and editors to make this editorial direction come to fruition.

“By and large, golf is an individual game, but in order to put out a groundbreaking magazine, it takes a well-rounded team of experts in all realms of publishing to produce a golf fitness magazine of the magnitude we want,” explains Gomen.

Golf Fitness Magazine, while dealing with strengthening the human body through exercise and nutrition, deals with the mental aspects of the game as the advisory and editorial boards will apprise readers of possible psychological, mental control exercises as well as the power of hypnotherapy.

“We leave no area of golf fitness untouched,” says Gomen. “In addition to the fitness aspect, we will add to the reader’s experience with relevant historical articles that deal with the special traditions of the game and through our articles allow them to discover special, mystical travel destinations.”

For advertisers who wish to be a partner in the first national issue of Golf Fitness Magazine, please contact Kristi at 407-864-5077. The deadline for the summer issue is June 18.

End Point Visualization reverses traditional golf visualization process

Posted by admin under Buyers Guide, Golf Books

Phenomena of Sports Psychology

Since the phenomena of sports psychology as applied to golf began in the 1980s, visualization was a major ingredient in psychological programs to open the human mind to successful golf.

Everyone from Chuck Hogan to Bob Rotella instructed clients to visualize the golf shot they were about to hit until the time it lands and then make it happen. This became the traditional way to visualize shots.

In his groundbreaking DVD, Par and Beyond Secrets to Better Golf, Dr. Jerry Teplitz totally reverses golf shot visualization. His theory is that the golfer should visualize the shot beginning with the target spot and landing back at the original lie.

“When you’re using a map to plan a trip you don’t start by looking on the map from where you are,” explains Teplitz. “You first look on the map to find your destination and then you track back to where you are. In End Point Visualization, we just applied that concept to golf.”

In the segment of the DVD dealing with End Point Visualization, Teplitz views this concept as a form of goal setting.

“You set the point where you want to be and then track back to where you are,” he said. “Along the way, you see what steps you have to take to get there. It eliminates the variables along the way. It’s a totally positive visualization because you’ve already attained the goal.”

Par and Beyond has had tremendous success stories, some of which are posted on the Par and Beyond Web site. Jerry Reymond, lead instructor at a Florida Golf Academy had these glowing comments about the DVD.

“Everybody talks about playing in the zone but how do you get there? With what I have experienced (after watching Par and Beyond) I feel this DVD begins to bridge the gap from talking about playing in the zone to actually showing you the road map to get there. I am excited about incorporating more of the principles in my own game and also in my teaching.”

End Point Visualization is just one of the 15 secrets revealed in Par and Beyond: Secrets to Better Golf. To order your copy or find out more about the DVD, visit www.golf-help.info.

Dr. Teplitz will be presenting at the 17th Annual International Network of Golf’s Spring Conference June 3-7 at Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, N.Y. site of the 2007 B.C. Open.
