Product Description
After teaching hundreds of thousands of golfers in the Golf Digest Instructional Schools they helped to organize, Bob Toski and Davis Love, Jr. perfected a revolutionary way of bringing instinct back to the golf swing. In easy-to follow drills and exercises, How To Feel a Real Golf Swing shows golfers of all abilities how to isolate the different parts of the swing. Each step is designed so that the golfer internalizes the feeling of each part of the swing and can finally put it all together for better results.

How To Feel a Real Golf Swing is the perfect way for golfers to learn on their own time and at their own pace to develop a solid and dependable golf swing: the basis of any good golf game.

5 out of 5 stars Tips from a master   October 14, 2007
Bob Toski is one of the best instructors of the golf swing. We are all different sizes, different ages and different skill levels but this one will get you on track.

Bob Toski simplies the golf swing to a game of feel.

A must read for all skill levels

I read it more one time and I feel that it's incomplete to learn the swing. Perhaps it's a book to read with a professional.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing   September 8, 2003

I did not like this book. It does not explain the golf swing sufficiently for the user to perform the swing correctly. There are certain aspects that I believe leave the reader unclear. For example, the book says that you need to imagine the inside path to the ball in the downswing as a slide going down to the ball. It does not say how the reader should actually perform this move.

I found there is very little in this book that I found to help my game. There are defiantly many fundamentals of the golf swing that this book doesn't even start to discuss. I also don't like the way that the book recommends that you learn how the hands/arms use before learning how the entire body should be used. The book even says that you can swing well without even reading the body/hips section. IMO this will turn the reader into a very "handsy" type of player. It is my belief that the swing is a blend of the entire body and advocating that it is possible to learn how the hands move without even addressing the hips and body is wrong.

There are better books around such as the LAWS of Golf, and Four Magic Moves to Winning Golf.


5 out of 5 stars Great Golf Instructional Book!   February 6, 2003

A great golf instructional book! I think it would be especially helpful to the beginner. The book was written in a very logical sequence and in the order of importance to help reader understand the entire golf swing. Drills in each chapter were simple to perform and effective.


5 out of 5 stars Great - finally puts the body parts in the proper order   June 6, 2002
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

After many lessons and lots of soul searching and bad adjustments made to my swing, this book really sets out the priorities of what makes a good swing. I supposedly swing outside in and have a slice. I have tried to use my legs, swing inside out with the clock method, swing slower, have a stronger grip, etc., etc. In frustration I locked my wrists and could manage a 23 handicap with mainly shoulder action. Finally this book tells how the hands lead, then the arms and the shoulders only follow. I also concentrated on a good follow through, but now know that it will be better when every thing else gets in the right order. Now that I have concentrated just on the hands for a while without any other movement, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hitting is a lot easier on the body and when I do get things right it goes pretty far! Hooray.
