HOW TO REPROGRAM YOUR GAME by doing research!

     A lot of good books and videos (Norm Duke's DVD is on the left), that helped me work on getting a GREAT MENTAL GAME! is listed. Knowing HOW TO reprogram your brain to get better results took more time than expected. In my HOW TO book, I skipped parts that took too much time and consolidated issues to save you months of wasted time. To understand how each athlete has different experiences and length of time in thier sport, I focused on starting from scratch so every athlete that reads my first book, will get valuable info most of the 31 days to compete the Zone!

       Many of the books listed will help your mental game! I have not read every book from front to back, I picked chapters that I knew would help me. Remember that any info to improve your game should be welcomed! Because of the length of the list, I won't rank any of the books, because they all can add something to your game in the sport you particpate in! The GREAT thing about this list is that authors want to sell books that try to help. My HOW TO books will SHOW YOU HOW TO HELP YOUSELF, in 31 days, taking small steps to improve and start winning more often while also having FUN competing! 

Finally, the whole story behind the action that made some rich!

      Pin Action By Manzione. Bowling with high stakes gambling. It's not about small stakes pot bowling. It's about the big cities with big bucks action and what drew Schlegel to travel for his addiction of the Benjamins. Since pot games were around many, many years ago, not all of you know how many were drawn to the alleys as soon as leagues finished up, so thery could bowl until six in the morning.

      After reading about big money and what some pros did back then wouldn't surprise everyone who lived for action! I remember Golden Pin Lanes being opened 24 hours a day, many years ago to welcome bowlers wanting action!

      A must read for any tournament or cash game bowler!

      A NEW MUST read is my Stats Plus Competitor's Guide. It will tell you about all of the

charters who show up to bowl!

Finally, the whole story about Earl Anthony!

      Earl By Sparks. Biography of the great Anthony becoming the first millionaire on the PBA tour. He was the human machine that was on TV most Saturdays. Between this book and Len Nicholson's accounting of what happemed on the PBA tour, you get a great understanding of those early days competing on the tour. A must have for bowlers!

      It's the photo on the right. 

Throwing the first perfect series opened a can of worms!

       "Mr. 900" By Johnson. August 1, 2020 is when the story of the greatest achievement in bowling by Allison was released. Yes, he did it in a time when no one expected perfection, even from a Hall of Fame member. Politics and publicity played a part in recording bowling's history. Great book!

Mr. Stat's MASSIVE MENTAL GAME LIBRARY, Mar. 2020, Rev 2024:

     This extensive collection of mental game books and audio/video tapes for sports and motivational books and tapes are or have been in my collection and have helped me many times over. The info in these 252 books and videos helped me achieve many goals. Most mental game books are written by PhD's. They usually jump around with the factors without an actual plan to build on your experience and their last factor. Knowing what factor to work on and building on all the factors you'e already learned, should help you achieve excellence in a lot less time.

     This does not mean I read every book cover to cover, just the parts that help me ‘proform’ better. Most of these books were in my library by Dec. 2000. “It is what you know, not what you think you know, that win championships.” You may be surprised as to what you could learn, from any of these books on your way to success. “Only after committing to excellence, can you start working on achieving your goals.” Good luck on getting to the next level. It after all, can be better to be lucky than good. But being lucky and good, is a 1- 2 punch that that most rivals will have a hard time handling during pressure situations. I’ve been there, done it and have had it done to me.

     These 253 books listed will have tips or guidance, motivation and inspiration for your journey to become successful. Some books are more on the physical game. There is a book on stretching. Your physical game can only take you so far, but you still need a physical game you can trust in close matches. To achieve great things, all athletes MUST have a great mental game. Unfortunately, I was never pushed by my parents to be a better athlete. I became better by practice, reading books in this library, experience, watching others, wanting to have more fun and never giving up!! 

     You’ll may find some at thrift stores, online and others at bookstores. Books may be available for sale! (m)= misplaced.

BA = Book & Audio tape.                  BV = Book & Video tape.

   A = Audio tape only.                       V = Video tape only.
