The best Ive found.  |
|
Being new to golf, I read many books and purchased many videos. This book has been the most helpful by far. Over Jim McClain, Bobby Jones, Ledbetter etc. It truly communicates what you need to feel. Learning mechanics is one thing, but until you FEEL it, you wont progress. Personally, my iron shots now are great! From just one pointer in the book and it is now hard not to hit my irons straight. Great book. Great teachers.

A truly exceptional book for golfers of all levels.  |
The most difficult part of golf is the mental game. Though cliched, that statement is incontrovertible. For most golfers, the tendency to view the swing as a mechanized process dominates their swing thoughts. "Keep my left arm straight," "Swing through to the target," "Dont reverse pivot," "Cock/load my wrists," "Put the ball back/up in your stance," "Shorten your backswing. . ." All of these ideas, though fundamentally sound in their physical advice, tend to prevent the golfer from optimizing his/her performance because they force the golfer to consciously force a complex physical activity that should really be driven by the subconscious and feeling.Bob Toski and Davis Love III have written a book that truly fosters golf as an athletic expression. Rather than burdening ourselves with overly precise mechanical thoughts, we must allow our natural athleticism to shine through and carry our game. The golf swing is a beautiful, fluid motion. To mechanize it detracts from its efficiency and power and renders it less graceful and effective. "How to Feel a Real Golf Swing" provides invaluable drills and advice that will allow you to understand and develop the feeling a good swing creates. It fosters the notion of allowing the arms and club to do the work of turning the body and shifting your weight. As a serious golf addict and student of the game, this book, more than any other Ive read, allowed me to understand my swing and improve my game. We all know the sweet feeling of hitting the ball on the sweet spot, this book devotes itself to the sweet feeling of the entire swing. I give it the highest rating I can.

An excellent book for all golfers  |

This book not only informs you of where your hands, head, feet, clubhead, etc. should be at a given time, but how the swing should "feel" at that time as well. For example, I found I was gripping the club too tight just from their descriptions of what the grip should feel like. This book along with Bob Rotellas book on "Golf is not a game of perfect" should be on any golfers reading list, if they seek improvement in the mental and the sensory aspects of the game...
