Summary: The Single Best Golf Book I own
Comment: Jim Flick has a special ability to teach golf to guys like me (12 handicapper). His ability to verbalize concepts is excellent and I love his emphasis on feel while playing golf. After using this book as my golf "bible" for a number of months I have definately improved my tempo, feel, touch around the greens, and above all else: my scoring.

As a former professional musician I know Jim speaks the truth when he discusses the difference between the practice grounds and the playing grounds.... thinking about technique on the golf course is not playing golf - thats practicing on the course. Thinking about what notes to play on stage is not playing music - it's practicing it on stage..... they are very different things.

I can not reccomend this book enough - I'm giving away my other golf books (way too many) except this one and my Bob rotella books.....

Summary: If you're looking for mechanics, look elsewhere.
Comment: This is a good book. However, it has a lot about the mental game, preshot routine, keeping your hands and arms lose, etc. and very little about full swing mechanics. That being said, it's a good book for all the other parts of the golf swing that are just as important if not more so than the actual swing mechanics themselves. But, if you're looking for a comprehensive instruction book, this isn't the one. As far as golf instruction books go, very entertaining read. A good companion book once you have your general mechanics down.

Summary: Playing by Feel
Comment: I own and have read over 20 golf instruction books (I'm a nut for this stuff!). With the exception of Manuel de la Torre's "Understanding the Golf Swing" (for which I wrote the first Amazon review) it is by far the best golf book I have ever read. Flick's instruction, swing drills, humor and motivational messages are all right on. This book is not only instructive, but funny; it is a delight to read, and to put into practice. I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone wishing to improve their game and have more fun in the process. By the way, the "4-step", "left foot, right toe", and "left hand off after impact" drills have improved my golf swing immeasurably. Thanks Jim!
