Summary: Hogan book $10; this book $22; why is that?
Comment: So, let's see. The Hogan "Five Lessons" book, a classic on the subject, sells for less than ten dollars. This sells for more than twenty dollars. It is about ninety pages long with large print and few words per page. Drawings are minimally helpful. The author of this book tells you right up front that much of the content was derived from other sources (including books by Jack Nicklaus, Al Geiberger, and Jimmy Ballard). This is another way to say that there is nothing even remotely original here. Bottom line is that this is the most simplistic of books and the content can easily be acquired elsewhere. I'll tell you what. Here is what you will "learn" from this book. Power comes from your legs, don't pull from the top with your arms but rather push the right knee towards the ball, and focus on tempo. Oh, and don't sway (the Nicklaus model of keeping the head still). There, I just saved you twenty-plus dollars. Now, go buy Hogan or a good Hank Haney or David Leadbetter book. Or you could buy books by Nicklaus, Geiberger and Ballard and you will then have the same material in greater detail than this author regurgitated here.

Summary: Excellent book - You will improve your game
Comment: Like others, I've purchased other instructional books, silly gadgets, and lessons from the local golf pro. I've also read the magazines, and searched the internet for that one magic tip that will make my golf shots longer, straighter, and more consistent.
Nothing really worked until I read Effortless Golf by Mike McTeigue. I now fully understand the golf swing, and why the fundamentals are some important. My golf shots are now looking and feeling much, much, better.
I found this book so effective because it simply explains what to do and what not to do during the golf swing. Furthermore, the book offers numerous drills that will help you learn the fundamentals neccessary for a solid, repeatable golf swing.
Overall, the book is an easy enjoyable read that will definitely improve your game.

Summary: An outstanding book!
Comment: A couple of years ago I wrote 'the only book you should read is Jimmy Ballard's 'How to Perfect Your Golf Swing', well here is another. It is true that this book is based on Jimmy Ballard's teachings and for this reason you must own this book too.
Mr McTeigue has reduced the swing to a simple minimum. This a great thing for the golfing world. His lighthouse drill is excellent, it will help anyone feel the correct swinging sensations a good player has.
As a golf instructor I can tell you what works and what doesn't, and this works. The book is based on sound fundamentals, is easy to understand and is simply to pracice. What more does a golfer want? Most books are far too complicated and you cannot put into work what the author has written because it is too difficult. We need a plan and Mr McTeigue has given the world one. Do yourself a favour, buy this book and practice what is in it.
