4 out of 5 stars Golf: The BEst Insrtuction Book Ever   July 23, 2008

Good book. Illustrates lots of techniques and tips. Still, it's always better to take lessons with a pro. Enjoyed the DVD extra.


5 out of 5 stars the best instruction book ever   July 6, 2008

I am a beginner golfer. The book is very helpful. I checked out many different golf books, but this is the far better golf book with a lof of pictures. The pictures explain far better than expainning with a lof of words for beginners.


5 out of 5 stars Golf Instruction   July 4, 2008
Great book,the instructions are easy to follow and don't try to revamp your whole swing. I feel like I have cut at least a couple of strokes per round. I have a 9 handicap,but I am always looking for improvements.


5 out of 5 stars Really the best   June 21, 2008
It contains anything you need to improve your game if you are beginner to intermidate.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent buy   June 6, 2008

I have been playing golf for 2 months (took lessons,pored over videos on internet,read many books including Hogan's,Hank Haney's,Leadbetter's, read golf magazines such as Golf Digest and Golf Tips) and I would say this book is one I take to the practice range. At the end of each practice session,I write down a list of what went right and what went wrong. I then flip through the section that covers my problem (the book is well organized for that),learn the drill,fixes and comments on that. Next session,I implement it. It almost always helps.
2 points:Since still pictures and wording can leave a few things unclear, you might have to look up additional sources such as another book/video/professional once in a while. Secondly, as another reviewer noted, in one or two places in the book (of nearly 150 pages),there is what seems to be contradictory advice (one instructor says start high, another says low). In a few other places where you think the same thing's happening,upon careful reading,the shots are slightly different.
Overall, an excellent bargain. You can buy the book alone without DVD for less than 12 bucks. Even better deal as the DVD is limited.
