5.0 out of 5 stars
Must have for any golfer,
By James W. Johnson (St. Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Master a Great Golf Swing (Paperback)
Both beginners and experienced golfers will learn a great deal from this book. The book focuses on the fundamentals of the golf swing in a manner that beginners can understand, but with enough detail and subtlety that even an experienced golfer will benefit. For example, beginners will appreciate the clear descriptions and pictures that cover the basic setup and mechanics, while seasoned golfers will appreciate the discussion of "swing thoughts" and other mental aspects of preparing a golf swing. The emphasis on developing a solid, dependable setup and swing is invaluable. This is a no-nonsense book; if you follow the lessons and practice, you really will master a great golf swing! I know, after 20 years of trying, I took the time to rebuild my swing according to this book; in one season I dropped from mid 90's to low 80's. It could have happened faster if I had practiced more...

The VERY BEST book on the mechanics of the golf swing,
By
This review is from: How to Master a Great Golf Swing (Paperback)
I was a Physiology Teaching Fellow in a university and an avid golfer since the time I was about 12 years old. Since that time, I have read many books on golf and the mechanics of the golf swing. In general, I've been frustrated by poor and incomplete descriptions in the past. This is because I think most great golfers don't have the ability to articulate what the actually are doing when they are making a swing. Their knowledge is embodies and underneath awareness. This book is unique in that it provides that missing information and presents it in a logical, clear and comprehensive manner including all the important details.In addition, this book is not so technical that it is unreadable by the average person. All of the concepts, even the more suble or complex are presented in a straightforward and concise manner. I believe this is a monumental achievement and a valuable contribution to the golf literature. This text will help you to understand EVERY aspect of a good golf swing, why it's important, what can go wrong and how to make corrections. There is not a single aspect of the swing or any element to it that is left out from feet placement, movement around various joints, etc. It also teaches you how to feel these things in your body and raised your awareness of how different things going wrong feels. In my opinion, this book should be on every golfer's shelf.... amateur and professional alike. It is a rare gem and one that will help you to improve your game. While it won't take the place of golf lessons by an excellent teacher, it will help you to digest what your pro is trying to tell you and give you the concepts you need to make improvements on your own.

I have read mucho golf books and this one is great for telling you how to perform fundermentals rather than just identifying what is a geat swing method. I have been working with this book for a month and my swing is getting better, better, and better. Also consistancy is taking hold. The illustrations are 1st class...... I am an 8 handicap and dropping....Redog
