Home on the Range: The Complete Practice Guide for the Golf Range

Summary: Starts right, and it goes further right? Try this book!
Review: Frustrated at the range one day, a stranger gave me this book to look through. Simple illustrations of my shot shape had me trying quick fixes to cure what had been a consistent problem for me over the years. Wanting more, I purchased the book, and read further to understand what more I could about the causes of my specific swing fault. Armed with this new information, my range practice time is better spent, and I am becoming a better golfer. Now a 12, I look forward to playing in single digits soon. I strongly recommend this book to people who are truly interested in improving their game through quality practice.

Review: I expected various tips on the practice range. But the author uses only 18 out of 179 pages for range tips. The rest of the book is for ordinary swing instructions and 'faults and fixes' with real people.There are a lot of good books on golf swing; I don't want to know anything about Seattle golfers particularly. I already have David Leadbetter's 'Faults and Fixes' and it's a good book. The author of 'Home on the Range' didn't have focus on his title.

Summary: One of the Best
Review: This book has helped me tremendously (I'm a 12 handicap) and one of my friends borrowed it and was very impressed, and he's a 4. Just as the author says in the introduction, many of the concepts in this book have been written elsewhere-just like every other golf book I've read-but the way it's presented here is entirely unique. This book is unlike any other golf instruction book I've seen: among other things, it doesn't present one method, but instead includes many options to help us into the correct positions. Would you rather read a book that tries to get you to swing exactly like some superstar on TV, or this one that has different techniques (and they really work!) from many of the best golfers and teachers in the world, including in my opinion this author? This way you can try them all and find the best one suited for your body type, level of experience, learning style, etc.

Summary: Misleading title, very odd book
Review: This is a book for high handicappers or beginners...maybe. There was not much of value in the book for a golfer trying to shoot below 80. Some really poor golfers are given as examples. If I practiced a lot and still shot 105, I would try another game!
