This review is from: Breaking 100, 90, 80: Taking Your Game to the Next Level with the Best Teachers in Golf (Hardcover)
As a golfer, I often struggle to break 100 and have read a lot of golf books, but this new one from Golf Digest is the best of all...whether you can grab 10 min before your next round or have a rainy afternoon to devour the entire thing...the tips are well organized, simple to understand, and easy to use...shot 93 after sunday's rain!

3.0 out of 5 stars Mmmhh.... good, January 30, 2007

This review is from: Breaking 100, 90, 80: Taking Your Game to the Next Level with the Best Teachers in Golf (Hardcover)
This book is more a series of tips that a book that guides you through a complete "system" or "way of playing". Don't get me wrong, it contains a lot of useful tips, but they don't seem to be arranged into a logic secuence.

I find it useful if you already know what are the flaws in your game, and could provide you with some interensting exercices for improving.

Overall a fairly good book, but not the best out there...

4.0 out of 5 stars Good tips on breaking 90 maybe, November 19, 2004

David (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Breaking 100, 90, 80: Taking Your Game to the Next Level with the Best Teachers in Golf (Hardcover)
This book is good for beginners. Although some of the instruction is complex and too much at times, it can show the beginning golfer how to play better golf. However, I found the following really great for showing one how to actually be a zero handicap golfer or better. This book is called:
The Ultimate Golf Instruction Guide: Key Techniques for Becoming a Zero Handicap Golfer or Better by Patrick Leonardi
isbn 1933023090
With the help of Leonardi's book I now can shoot in the mid-seventies. Soon I will be able to break par. Leonardi shows how golf is really not that hard and can be mastered with his excellent and easy to learn techniques.
