5 out of 5 stars The greatest book ever, by far, on the golf swing.   May 8, 2008
Hogan's book has been continuously in print for over fifty years. Most other golf swing books, in contrast, disappear from print after just a few short years. Hogan's book is exceptionally clear and detailed about all the swing fundamentals. Consequently one can always figure out, when needs must, what's going wrong with one's swing and how to correct it.
Hogan's book is also unique in demonstrating how each swing fundamental links with the others. Other golf swing books, in contrast, tend to be be compilations of swing tips. So, where other books provide swing 'band-aids', Hogan's provides illumination and helps develop real understanding.
Hogan's book has been called, rightly in my opinion, 'the bible of the golf swing'. All modern golf swing theorists, as is clear from their writings, just repackage or add footnotes to Hogan.
Go to the source, to the benefit of both swing and understanding, read Hogan's timeless classic.



4 out of 5 stars Not perfect but a should have   May 3, 2008
If you think your going to find any life/game altering info reading this book you won't. Personally I think it's overrated, golf is full of tiny inconsistencies that are not covered in this book. I think Jack's golf my way, a couple Arnold books & Bobby Jones on Golf are better reads. Break 100 Now: From Hacker to Golfer in Just 90 Days is also very good. Spend the $45 now on a pro to look over your swing. Once you KNOW what your swing is supposed to look like then these books may help.


5 out of 5 stars The quickest way to a great swing...   April 14, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is my first book review ever, but I don't understand why there aren't any reviews for the book posted.
This is by far the easiest most to the point book I have read on the golf swing so far. I am ok at putting and got so, so much from Dave Pelz Short Game Bible, but have never had a lesson on the full golf swing. I promise if you read this book and spend even just a little time practicing Hogan's Fundamentals, you will be swinging much better instantly! Awesome!



5 out of 5 stars Makes golf simple!   February 20, 2008
This book is amazing. It breaks the full golf swing into several easy to understand fundamentals. After reading Hogan's view of the full swing I feel like I understand the golf swing for the first time. This book will make anyone better. I am currently practicing the things he suggests. I can tell you that after a week I have already seen an improvment in my ball striking and trajectory. I look forward to working on my swing and eventually breaking 80 regularly, which Hogan thought anyone could do if they understood the fundamentals of the golf swing. This book is a must own for anyone who wants to play better golf!


5 out of 5 stars The perfect one.   February 8, 2008
I think it's the best swing manual. It's very detailed and very tecnical but the illustration of mr. Ravielli are very very clear and help the writer (a legend of golf) to explain in a very clear way.

Everyone who want to taste the "spirit of the game" has to read this book!
