Product Description
The difference in driving distance between short and long hitting professionals is remarkably small. How can short and skinny players hit the ball 280 yards with what appears to be effortless swings? What do they know that we do not know? What is the true source of power in the golf swing and how do you apply it to your own game? These are some of the questions that will be answered in this guide.

 Science good, golf advice not so good October 8, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got my copy of the book yesterday, purchased largely on the basis of the two previous reviews. Having studied "The search for the perfect swing" and "The physics of Golf" along with playing the game for 57 years the last 20 as a playing professional and teacher I feel qualified to give an unbaised opinion of this book. I believe the Science/Physics is spot on however when he begins to talk about the swing itself to me his comments are somewhat suspect. For example, when he talks about the swing pane and uses Hogan's pane of glass his illustration correctly shows one of the variations of a swing plane. That the swing plane is established by the shaft line at address and you are either on that line or parallel and above it. When he begins to describe what he considers a proper swing plane later in the book he uses the butt of the club pointing to the target line. The only way to get to that position is to alter the swing plane. As a full time golf instructor for the last couple of years I could not recommend this book to any golfer looking to improve their game. You would be much better served by reading and trying to understand Jorgenson's "The Physics of Golf"
 A wonderful improvement over regular golf books August 7, 2008

The book "The Scientific Truth of the Golf Swing" by Steen Winther is an outstanding and very helpful golf book. Following the lessons, I have greatly improved my game. I highly recommend this book to anyone having problems with there golf swings and overall approach to playing golf!
 Excellent engineering analysis February 28, 2008

Finally, a book about the golf swing that does the type of analysis that engineers want to see. This book was an excellent read and very well written. It is very easy to understand by anyone interested in the physics of a correct golf swing. Highly Recommended. My only hope is that the author comes out with more books the cover all aspects of the game
