Anyone here read the articles in gold digest about getting into the Zone? Alot of the things in there were pretty exciting. One part was talking about what a mystery 'THE ZONE' is. If you think you've worked your way into 'the zone' all of the sudden your not in it anymore. Everyone talks about it, when the stars are alligned, when you run 6 straight racks when your best ever was 2. Michael Jordan said throughout his entire career that he feels he was in 'the zone' maybe 2% of the time. Now they have tests of brain activity that can tell exactly when you are in 'the zone', and when highly skilled athletes are hooked up to the machine they can actually subconciously control thier mind and make the reading go higher, controling how in 'the zone' they are. It sounds like some exciting work these doctors are doing. The whole feature article this month is based on 'THE MENTAL GAME'. Anybody even slightly interested in this should go out and pick up the magazine right now. Being based on the mental side of things it apply's too pool just as much as it does golf.
