"Many coaches know how to teach the finer details of shooting and because of that most athletes train 90% of the time on the physical portion of shooting. What most do not prepare for is the mental side of the game. I believe that we, as coaches, need to prepare our athletes on the mental game. Are you the coach that is in The Zone? If you want to learn and give your athletes an advantage in competition then get Bob's book or his training. You need to read the book and review it to get the concepts solid in your toolkit so you can use them with your athletes. I know it has helped my shooting also. Good luck and stay in The Zone!.
