Summary: A truly exceptional book for golfers of all levels.
Review: The most difficult part of golf is the mental game. Though cliched, that statement is incontrovertible. For most golfers, the tendency to view the swing as a mechanized process dominates their swing thoughts. "Keep my left arm straight," "Swing through to the target," "Don't reverse pivot," "Cock/load my wrists," "Put the ball back/up in your stance," "Shorten your backswing. . ." All of these ideas, though fundamentally sound in their physical advice, tend to prevent the golfer from optimizing his/her performance because they force the golfer to consciously force a complex physical activity that should really be driven by the subconscious and feeling.Bob Toski and Davis Love III have written a book that truly fosters golf as an athletic expression. Rather than burdening ourselves with overly precise mechanical thoughts, we must allow our natural athleticism to shine through and carry our game. The golf swing is a beautiful, fluid motion. To mechanize it detracts from its efficiency and power and renders it less graceful and effective. "How to Feel a Real Golf Swing" provides invaluable drills and advice that will allow you to understand and develop the feeling a good swing creates. It fosters the notion of allowing the arms and club to do the work of turning the body and shifting your weight. As a serious golf addict and student of the game, this book, more than any other I've read, allowed me to understand my swing and improve my game. We all know the sweet feeling of hitting the ball on the sweet spot, this book devotes itself to the sweet feeling of the entire swing. I give it the highest rating I can.

Summary: An excellent book for all golfers
Review: This book not only informs you of where your hands, head, feet, clubhead, etc. should be at a given time, but how the swing should "feel" at that time as well. For example, I found I was gripping the club too tight just from their descriptions of what the grip should feel like. This book along with Bob Rotella's book on "Golf is not a game of perfect" should be on any golfer's reading list, if they seek improvement in the mental and the sensory aspects of the game...

Summary: Great book ! I read it twice.
Review: This book provides an excellent description for each part of the golf swing. The illustrations are more helpful than watching a golf video. The drills are quite simple and really pay off on the course

Summary: get this book
Review: This book really does what it says. I have books and tapes galore about golf, and I have never seen real results in my score. This book gave me the feel of a nice, easy, smooth swing that gave me better results than my usual grip it and rip it attempts. The drills here are some of the best I've ever tried. After the first two chapters alone, I went out and shot an 85! (I'm usually in the high 90's). Get this book, do the drills, and you'll stop thinking about every detail of your swing when your standing over the ball. (This will also save your money since you'll stop buying all those tapes and junk from t.v.)
