Yeah putting and chipping matter, but hitting greens in regulation is how you score better, period! This is the most effective way to post lower scores. Fix your swing now with Just Swing! Quit Trying To Swing Like the ProsKnowing how to hit long tee shots that land in the fairway (yes, it is easier to play from the short grass), fairway shots that get you on the green or close on par fives, and iron shots from the fairway that get you on the green in regulation, can shave many strokes from your score. Imagine the difference it will make in your score when you bomb a drive on a par 5 and then rocket a fairway wood onto the green for an eagle instead of a weak fat shot that has you staring at bogey or worse, that is a 2-3 stroke difference on one hole! Imagine how your score will improve if you do that a couple times in a round! Automatic Golf will teach you the revolutionary pendulum swing that will simplify your swing and improve your consistency immediately.With this swing you will: -Learn to hit the ball farther!-Improve your accuracy with every club!-Eliminate "skulled shots"!-Reduce practice time and learn to practice effectively!-Quit wasting time with useless drills!-Simplify your swing!-Get your core involved instead of your arms!-Hit down on the ball automatically!-Eliminate wasted motion in your swing and reduce it to the key elements!By the end of this book you will have all the tools you need to make consistent powerful shots.

If so this is the book for you.As a golfer, I am sure you are aware that having a simple repeatable swing is critical to shooting low scores.

This book will teach you a method that will have you swinging the club consistently and repeatably with minimal practice. This method will help lower your scores with a minimum of effort and time since it doesn't rely on "timing" and hours of practice to improve your swing but rather a simple powerful swing for every club in your bag.The PGA statistic on strokes gained has proven that contrary to what is commonly believed, it is typically not putting that makes the difference between winning and losing, it is approach shots that separate most PGA tour winners from losers. This book will give you the tools to improve your swing without requiring you to spend hours of time on the practice range. We have identified 5 key elements that must be followed in order to make a proper swing so if you pay attention to nothing else in this book, learn these keys and your swing will improve dramatically. Our swing is a simplified version of a single plane swing, we call the pendulum swing. Because there are fewer moving parts to this swing, it is easier to learn and more consistent. We will also learn how to practice so that you actually learn skills that will improve your swing by utilizing some simple golf swing drills that will make practice time effective and efficient.This book is the key to improving your golf game forever and joins the successful Automatic series of golf instruction that has helped golfers around the world improve their games with minimal practice!Tim Theisen is the author of multiple books intended to improve your golf game utilizing unique methods to generate results while minimizing practice time.As a golfer, I am sure you are aware that having a simple repeatable swing is critical to shooting low scores.

Download or read book The Softball Game written by John L. Kinsler and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10-30 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 20 million men and women in this country play softball. On the surface, The Softball Game is about men and their need for battles. Aggression is as coded in our DNA as is our need to reproduce. It is a fun game with laughs recalled from years playing softball. The old storyteller is reluctant to do battle. He tells the confrontation in the first person singular, episode by episode. The game is a tribal struggle played by redneck, bad guys and middle class, semi-affluent, anti-heroes. Coming to the rescue is Beth - - a woman! Beth reduces the male struggle to a farce. The driving timbre is the storytellers experiences with three females whose lives are indirectly, obliquely, and directly affected by his wars at softball. The Softball Game is about these women. Phaedra literally hands the young warrior his first sexual experience. Entering the man world still a child, he meets Bridgette his playtoy. She is a transition to adulthood and the paragon of summer love. Playing at sex with adult bodies and a childs maturity, they both lose. Then comes Beth. If you read one chapter, it should be 11. There has never been a hero like her.

Download or read book The Stack and Tilt Swing written by Michael Bennett and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-11-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth, full-color, step-by-step guide to the new golf swing that has taken the PGA Tour by storm The traditional golf swing requires a level of coordination that few golfers have. So it's no surprise that, despite huge advances in club and ball technology, the average golf handicap in America has dropped by only one stroke since 1990. Maverick golf instructors Michael Bennett and Andy Plummer spent a decade researching the swing, eventually combining physiology and physics to create a method they dubbed the "Stack and Tilt." The result? Big-name pros like Mike Weir, Tommy Armour III, and Aaron Baddeley are already converts, and Bennett and Plummer are now two of the most soughtafter swing coaches in the game. Making these breakthroughs available to everyone, The Stack and Tilt Swing is a handsome, fully illustrated, complete course, packed with more than two hundred full-color photographs that make it easy for golfers at all levels to adopt this radical yet simple approach. Analyzing why the traditional swing won't work for most golfers, the authors explain the importance of keeping the upper body stacked over the lower body, while the spine tilts toward the target during the backswing, greatly reducing the inconsistencies created by the old-fashioned approach. Enhanced with practice routines, a troubleshooting list, test cases, and point-by-point assistance, this is the breakthrough guide to golf's hot new secret weapon.

Download or read book Extraordinary Golf the Art of the Possible written by Fred Shoemaker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most golfers approach the tee with a complex mental package: worries and judgments about their swing, the other person's swing, the course, the weather, looking good, looking bad. They think about what's wrong instead of what's possible, and this is what Extraordinary Golf teaches: the art of the possible. Drawing on his experience teaching both amateurs and professionals for more than fifteen years, in his clinics around the country, in his Golf in the Kingdom seminars at the Esalen Institute, and at his own School for Extraordinary Golf in California, Shoemaker shows how extraordinary golf can be coached, learned, and practiced, with results not only in people's scores but in their sheer pleasure in the game. Combining a host of practical exercises with an entirely new point of view, he demonstrates how to focus not on the voices in your head but on the reality of golf: the club, the ball, your body, the course - the elements that actually make up your game. He shows how to approach shots creatively, instead of mechanically; how to read greens simply by staying awake; how to develop a powerful and consistent swing by rediscovering trust for your instincts; and how to improve yourself in competition by determining what you're competing for. He also gives simple guidelines on how to coach yourself, your spouse, and your children successfully.
