Summary: A must buy book for golfers
Review: If you like Tiger Woods, buy it.
No exception.
I read his book and then went to the driving range.
It works; I know why I hit straight, hook, or slice.
I may not become a better player but I know how I can do that.
This is my sincere review.
It worths your money.

Summary: WOW!!!!! A masterpiece of a book
Review: I have been a fan of Tiger now for many years. Truthfully he is the person who got me interested in the game, I have been golfing since May of 2001. I have become completely amazed by the game of golf now, and am always thinking about it. My girlfriend bought me this book to go along with my golf library. My first reaction to the book was WOW. I read the sections on putting and chipping so far and have skimmed the entire book. My first game after reading these sections was a ton better. I had read what Tiger was saying about grip and hand movement. I practiced it for only an hour one day on the green at a local country club. The next day I had the best short game of my life, on the course. I was visualzing and understanding what I needed to do. I have been taking lessons also now for about 2 months. Nothing can help your game more than practice itself. But once you have the right mind set and can see what you are supposed to do the game becomes much much eaiser. The pictures and writing in this book are excellent. I would recommend it to any golfer at any skill level.

Summary: Tiger Got Zen!!
Review: From start to finish this book is unpretentious. I came expecting-(crassly, I admit)- to find a "How-to-hit-Home-Runs by Mark McGwire" type of book, but I got a refreshiing step by step introduction to the mindset of how a golfer thinks, deals with and plays the game.Woodses' Recollections of his triumphs and slip-ups reveal the man behind the young hero and his worthiness to the title of role-model for our youngsters.Many more to you Mr. Tiger Woods-and many more like you to follow in other fields of endeavor.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book from Tiger himself
Review: This book is a winner because of all the pictures to go along with the invaluable knowledge from Tiger Woods himself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You don't have to golf to enjoy this.
Review: I've read three extensive excerpts (Sunday Telegraph supplements) and it made me want to golf, even in the cold rain. I took inspiration from all parts of the game he described, and marvelled at his mastery of the golf swing.

If you never read another golf book, read this one. I would recommend it to anyone, golfer or not. Even some Physics academics could learn something here.

My short game has always been reliable, but now I want to go to the Pitch 'n Putt every weekend. I will be re-reading these excerpts again, and maybe someone will notice this book on my Wish List this Christmas.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A good but not great book
Review: Having read this book cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed it, I have to to say it is a good book, though not a great book.

If you are thinking of buying this book as a means to establishing a sound repeating swing, I would strongly recommend reading Faldos, A Swing For Life, first. It will provide a solid foundation for the advanced techniques in this book.

Tiger is no doubt the best the game has ever seen, but I think Faldos book will help most amateurs more.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Practice, practice, practice...
Review: We only see the glamour of success, the impossible putt, the droll delivery of a comic. What we don't see is what this book can not give you. That is the mind-numbing tedium of practice and refinement of technique.
Buy this for advice, but a book on golf does not a golfer make.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Destined to Be A Classic!
Review: Tiger will not only be one of the game's greatest players, but also one of the game's greatest students! From his coach to his competitors to observers, he is known as one so passionate about the sport that he studies, refines and experiments with what is best for him.

This is an exceptional production -- large in format, with wonderful photos and drawings and aids to communicate visually the teaching point Tiger is getting across. It works! For example, see the neat grip guesser visual on putting pressure. Many of us amateurs don't even begin to think about grrip pressure, especially with the blade.

The section on the head game is superb! Tiger's strength is here and there is such good advice and an abundance of it.

I'm just starting to mine this top-notch resource which we've all been excited to have from Tiger. From that captivating, genuine smile on the cover through each page, we will find much to import into our golf games.

Play away!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not only a really big Book but also the greatest!
Review: Oh my god! It's my word came out when I pick it from packaging. This book is exceeding my expectation. I've been tracking Tiger's writing work for two years at his website and admire his writing skill same as his golf skill. Not only techniques but also Tiger's tales are interesting. Most of all, the layout, artwork, pictures and illustrations are wonderful. The book is a must for all Tiger's fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A life saver!
Review: This book is truly a life saver for me. I am a single Mom who decided to take up golf a year ago for fun, relaxation and to introduce my eight year old son to a sport we could play together. We both have golf lessons with the same golf pro and we have made steady progress. My son is now in Junior Golf and plays tournaments each week. My problem is he never listens to any advice I give him! Obviously I am no Earl Woods and there isn't any one around to take on that role except me, hence our golf games were becoming stressful, frustratinag and everything but relaxing! I now have Tiger by my side! My son can read the book, look at the photos and see exactly what he should be doing. The book is easy to read and contains precise instructions. The photos are superb and guide the reader through every step of the swing. Tiger's thoughts about the game are inspiring and insightful. A great book, a great read and a life saver for those of us who do not have a wealth of experience and wisdom about golf to fall back on. I know my game has improved since I obtained this book and so has my son's. Thank you Tiger.
