About this title

Review:

Short on words but long on easy-to-follow visuals, Ultimate Golf Techniques is aimed more at beginners and intermediate players than at low handicappers. Though its methods are simple--show pictures of stars such as Nick Faldo and Greg Norman to provide positive images for building a correct swing--Ultimate Golf Techniquesoffers a painless introduction to all aspects of the game. Though fundamentals and mechanics are the instructional's ace, it doesn't neglect the areas that trouble golfers at all levels: how to think on a golf course and how to play within the complexity of the rules.
