Synopsis

As a golfer, you know how easy it is to pick up bad habits. Videos by superstars can help, and so can lessons from local pros, but golf is an individual game. The champs don't copy each other, so why be a clone of any of them? Instead, you could be your own best coach, armed with this unique personalized skill-training book by one of golf's most popular instructors. Palmer offers one of the largest, most complete, most detailed guides to the subject, so you can choose to practice any or all of the hundreds of careful steps shown in over 250 full-color illustrations on 36 different photographic sequences. Take your time and study each one as long as you want. The section on your swing, for example, breaks down this two-second motion into several steps. The same careful approach covers stances, grips, swings, club selection, tee shots, fairways and greens, roughs, uphill and downhill lies, the putting game-within-a-game. Dozens of checklists show what to do about chronically rough parts of your game. You also get into the mental aspects, and learn how to educate your muscle memory to affect swing movements controlled by the subconscious mind. As you see how your game is made up of so many little motions, you'll probably discover a few minor changes that could each save a stroke or two. Finding those little moves is what this book--and your game--are all about.
