5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended. An example of learning from greatness., September 24, 1997
This review is from: David Leadbetter's Lessons From The Golf Greats (Hardcover)
This book presents the swings of several "great ones", as analyzed by David Leadbetter. Knowing that each individual has a unique swing, Leadbetter points out one or two key points about a particular champion's swing that he believes should be emulated. The format is very readible, with a short synopsis of a player's career and style, followed by two frame-by-frame series (from behind, as well as from the front of the golfer), and then concluded by the key features, as well as drills on how to incorporate this in your game. Since different approaches work for different people, I'm sure everyone will be able to benefit from at least some of the key points that Leadbetter addresses from each champion's swing.

This book settles once and for all that there is much variation in the golf swing. The format makes reading and studying this book a lot of fun.
