Today women comprise 20% of all golfers, and thanks to WPGA sponsors like Evian along with attractive record-breaking pro like Annika Sorenson, that number is expected to reach 50% in the next decade. Whether you're new to the game, or frustrated because it's tougher than you thought, you may be wondering whether you should take lessons from a male or female pro? How to generate more power, and improve arm, body, and hand action? Should you play while pregnant? From choosing clubs (never use a man's!) to grooving your swing path for bunker shots, comprehensive coaching by the instruction editor of Women & Golf magazine, and a major female pro, addresses every aspect of the woman's game. Detailed lessons on technique and workouts geared just for women reveal the secrets of maximizing your length, straightening out your shots, and compensating for lesser distances with a stronger short game. Practice tips, exercises for improving flexibility and strength, and sequential photographs will allow you to become the golfer you've always known you could be.
