Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
A teaching professional and a sports psychologist here combine to write a book on the fundamentals and strategies of golf. Like most books about the game, it provides insights on how to play in wind and rain, control distance, read greens, and hit out of the sand. What distinguishes this book from others is not only how clear, well researched, and understandable each section is, but how we can learn a bit more about ourselves by reading it. The authors illustrate their points by posing some interesting questions, such as "What club selection would you use if behind a willow tree with low hanging limbs 125 yards from the green?" A welcome addition to sports literature.
