I found this book so much more helpful than 90% of the books that teach about swings or stances. My game has definitely improved since reading this book. I highly recommend it. Another great one along the same lines is How I Went From a 20 Handicap to Par Golf. Both are not to be missed.
There are many books filled with drills or that give you the best kept secret in golf, and so forth. Most of them are full of good intentions. This is not one of those books.
