Rating:  out of 5 stars - Couldn't put it down!
For a novice such as myself, I was astounded at what this book could teach me. From grip to stance to swing to rules, every page was entertaining and/or relevant.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great intro to golf
I purchased this book to learn enough about golf to play a game with my boss. This book and a couple hours practice did the trick. It taught me all the golf specific jargon, the rules, and the basics of proper swing and form. Whether you want to play like a pro, or just play well enough to keep from looking like a fool, this is a perfect starting place.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Fantastic beginner's guide
I bought this book after walking away unhappy with "Golf for Dummies" (2nd ed.). This book is so much better, because it focuses on things a beginner golfer needs to know, instead of trivia we don't really care about. After reading this book I have improved my swing and hit as well as picked out a good club set with the help of the chapter on clubs. I'll read this book over and over again as I become hooked on golf.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good book if you want to learn how to play golf!
I bought the book because I was interested in learning the game. I found it very informative. Covered the basics and stretching exercises to do before playing. A must read if you are serious about your game!
