How to Feel a Real Golf Swing: Mind-Body Techniques from Two of Golf's Greatest Teachers

As each of us golfer stand up to a golf ball, there are feeling inputs. This book carries that into detail. It is easy to understand. This book is targeted to golfers who cannot understand what is happening in the full swing.

I ran across this book in a used book store during the off season.I read the first couple of chapters and did the non hitting drills. After not playing golf for two months stopped by the range and the results were amazing. Hit the ball flush and had more control than ever. Continued the non hitting drills for a week then snuck out to the course on a nice day and it all carried over to live play. If i got out of rythme i would do a quick drill and be right back on track. Tied my best score and left about 5 strokes on the course from bad chips and two three putts. Gave it to a friend and ordered a new one for myself. 18 Handicap.

I'm a relatively new golfer and as such have many doubts as to the proper way to perform a golf swing, I have read many articles and a couple of books on the subject but they usually are very focused on mechanics and each one tries to sell you on it's own particular method. What makes this book unique is the step by step approach it takes in teaching you how to "feel" the proper swing mechanics through a variety of drills that greatly simplify and improve the learning process. You can really tell that the authors not only had a profound knowledge of the golf swing but also had great experience in teaching it.

I wish that I had found this instructional book much earlier. Bob Toski and the late Davis Love II provide practical ways for you to "feel" the various components of the golf swing. They provide practice exercises without the club in your hand so you can first experience the "feel" that they are describing. By doing this, it starts the process of removing all of the bad "feelings" that were previously generated by your golf swing. Read the book slowly and savor the process.

This book is not only good for beginners, but also for low handicap golfers who get caught up in mechanics. This was a recommendation by one of the PGA professionals who is helping me get ready for some of the major amateur tournaments and a possible run at the Champion's Tour. It is great for getting you out of "position golf" and into creating the motions involved in a swing. The drills are practical and can be done at home and at the range.

If you have read many golf instructional books and watched countless videos like I have and feel like your not improving much, than learning by visualization, explanations, demonstrations, and analogies may not work for you. There are few books that teach by feel and this is by far the best. You can tell these guys enjoy teaching. Buy it, you won't regret it.

liked how it stressed the importance the hands and feet are to the golf swing.

I am 70 years old and have been playing golf since I was 15.My low hc was 4.My hc was 15 and rising when I ordered this book and others out of desperation. This book simplifies everything, makes it easy to work at what once came natural.

This is a useful book for a golfer who is struggling to swing without the awkward feeling a beginner has, however as with all instructional golf books there is a good deal of the authors own opinion on body position and swing sequence, and it is important that the reader can interpret that information and how it relates to their own swing, if for example the reader already has a tendancy to 'drive' through the ball with a lateral hip shift, this book could lead them to believe they are on the right track, and emphasise this part of their swing even more, which could result in excessive lower body movement. A good book if used in conjunction with lessons from a proffessional.

A really refreshing and interesting take on how to develop an effective golf swing. Focusing on feel and rhythm, it encourages the reader to find the correct swing rather than imposing a serious of mechanical position to be attained. It contains lots of great mental images, analogies with other sports and movements to help simplify the golf swing, along with practical drills at the end of every chapter to help reinforce the right feelings. I am professional golfer and I found this a great book for my own game and my teaching of the golf swing to others-I've used a number of the feelings and drills from the book with my pupils and seen great results and a few light bulb moments.
