What books do you guys recommend for a begging competition pistol shooter? I know about Brian Enos’ Practical Shooting, Beyond Fundamentals, and have seen other books on his sight, but don’t know which, if any, books you guys find helpful.
What books do you recommend?

We're talking practical shooting, right? Not bullseye or IMSHA?
In addition to Brian's book, I'd get ahold of J. Michael Plaxco's Shooting from Within and Steve Anderson's Refinement and Repetition. The first is a useful, somewhat more grounded adjunct to Brian's book. The second is an extensive collection of dryfire training drills that cover almost every aspect of practical shooting.

The phone book is good.
To schedule a training class with a good coach.
I have seen a lot of plugs for Matt Burkett's videos.

info on bullseye shooting
The best book I've found on conventional bullseye pistol competition is
THE PISTOL SHOOTER'S TREASURY by Gil Hebard.
The best overall source of information is www.bullseyepistol.com.

Depending on how well you shoot you may want to consider the Bible.
It comes in handy for those seeking miracles.

For Bullseye, get the Army training manual. It's free on the net at the Bullseye site - http://www.bullseyepistol.com/amucover.htm
I liked the Brian Enos book "Practical Shooting". It's got a lot of good info in it.
The previously mentioned Hebard book is good too.
