Book Description

Lessons From the Master

After making golf history by winning the 1930 Grand Slain and having won thirteen of the twenty-seven major championships he entered, Bobby Jones retired at the tender age of twenty-eight-the most dominant player of his generation. Even in the Tiger Woods era, the legend of Bobby Jones lives on and continues to guide future generations of golfers.

In The Bobby Jones Way, acclaimed golf writer John Andrisani analyzes Jones's powerful, near perfect swing and flawless execution to show you, regardless of your level of play, how you can benefit from insights into Jones's driving, pitching, chipping, and putting techniques.

After watching countless hours of footage showing Jones swinging the club, and through interviews with Jim McLean and other top-rated instructors, Andrisani was able to break the code and make new discoveries about Jones's unique method.

The Bobby Jones Way includes fully illustrated instructional insights that go far beyond the elements of the swing and thus will serve as your guidebook to improvement. The book also traces Jones's learning process and teaches you how to hit creative shots, including Jones's bread-and-butter supercontrolled power draw, and provides you with techniques to save vital strokes. Andrisani also looks at what was so special about Jones's course-management skills, and teaches you how to cure swing and shot-making problems on the practice tee as Jones did, so you can become a more complete player and enjoy the game more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Here's What Bobby Didn't Say In His Videos - Awesome, June 29, 2007
By 
Stanley Spring (Baton Rouge, La.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Bobby Jones Way: Swing Secrets of Golf's All-Time Power-Control Player (Hardcover)
Want to play hickory golf, learn from the best, Bobby Jones. This book is awesome. I've watched all Bobby Jones' videos and read inside the pages of Andrisani's book key secrets about Bobby's stance, grip, and things that he did but didn't make the videos. I incorporated Andrisani's comments into my swing and my slice disappeared. It dramatically improved my drives. Still working on the rest. The book is well worth the price of admission. Tried to track John Andrisani down and sent a letter to him at an address in St. Petersburg telling him he was right and his comments on Bobby Jones were right on the money. Intertwined with great history of Bobby Jones it's a hit for anyone who wants to improve and learn from the best golfer in the world - Bobby Jones.
