In the beginning....and this is where we must start, we learn
that hitting the ball is not as important as learning how to
swing the golf club. It is not difficult to hit a golf ball,
however, it is difficult to hit it well consistently. Therefore,
I am recommending as a supplement to the notes taken from any
teaching professional or golf instructor.
I encourage you to purchase Ben
Hogan's Five Lessons : The
Modern Fundamentals of Golf.

If establishing a golf library is desired, look at
the contents of Golf
for Dummies. If you don't know the difference between a lob
wedge and a lemon wedge, check out
Golf for Dummies, by CBS commentator Gary McCord, one of the
game's most colorful--and knowledgeable--characters. It's a wonderful,
often hilarious, never boring introduction to the game. Don't let
the foreword by Kevin Costner or the afterword by Hootie and the
Blowfish confuse the issue; this is a terrifically sound, easy-to-follow
primer. McCord's potato-chip drill--yes, potato-chip drill--will
revolutionize your swing, and your thinking, with overtones that
could spill directly into off-the-course existence, as well. |
David
Leadbetter's Faults and Fixes : How to Correct the 80 Most Common
Problems in Golf
David Leadbetter is the guru particularly known for the way he's
molded the games of the Nicks--Nick Price and Nick Faldo--to often
breathtaking levels. Faults and Fixes is a perfectly pragmatic
instructional. Breaking golf into the full swing, the short game,
the game in general, and mental approaches, he fills one page
with a common problem--say, slicing, hooking, undisciplined practice--and
on the facing page presents its cure. The language is clear, and
the advice is well illustrated. |

Finally a book for the ladies written by a very classy
lady. Golf
Annika's Way is written with Sorenstam's I'm-like-you attitude.
It infuses an entirely friendly and comprehensible presentation
of how to play golf. Photographic presentations of Sorenstam practicing
exercising combine with asides about her personal life create a
popular golf book |
