Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Read twice
Review: I've read this book twice and will read again. The instruction flows just like an enjoyable novel. Definitely a great book worth reading twice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent instructional book
Review: In another review I read that this is William Jefferson Clinton's favorite golf book. You know since he has left the presidency he has a pretty good swing. Though I feel sorry for the guy because no one believes his scores, as a result he will probably never be accepted as a credible golfer.

Now to this book. No I do not believe golf is a woman's game. It is no ones game. The game is equally brutal to us all. However, I do applaud the author for writing an excellent instructional manual that is also a very pleasant read.
The author believes golf is a woman's game because women (compared to men) lack physical strength so their bodies naturally accomodate for difference through the use of technique. She has a sub-chapter called the effiency ratio where she discusses the amount of physical strength vs distance and she explains that the swings efficacy not the distance the ball travels represents a good golf swing.
A very good book that reveals a lot of myths and one that is definitely worth reading.

And as for William Jefferson, I believe you and keep swinging... it's looking good.

Summary: Golf is a Woman's Game great for Guys
Review: Ok, So the title is "Golf is a Woman's Game" but the fact is this book is for any golfer. The author has directed it toward women but this book stands up to the best. We all have been victims of the myths presented in this book. Even though the author claims women are targeted more frequently I've heard my fairshare in my 15 years of golf. Bottom line: If you are a male golfer don't let the title bother you. This book is as good if not better than any by Leadbetter, etc.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent book
Review: One of the better golf books on the market. Actually it is very similiar to Rick Smith's book "How to find your perfect golf swing" (which is another great book). However "Golf is a Woman's Game" was published before Smith's which leads me to believe the author Horn is well ahead of her time.

I did not agree with all of Horn's theories and found the illustrations to be ok. But despite these setbacks it really was a very excellent book.

I gave it a five star rating and believe a lot of men (who are not intimidated by the title) would benefit by reading this book. It shows how a man's forearm strength can actually hurt his golf game. Any way, I strongly recommend this book, it has some great information, one of my favorites was the chapter "Observations on Women and Golf"....a lot of cute stories.
