Using a combination of expert advice and step-by-step instruction Golf Skills carefully guides the reader through the most essential aspects of the game. Although the most basic skills are sometimes overlooked, it is the mastery of grip, stance, and alignment that allows a golfer to reach his true potential. As Golf Skills demonstrates, it is only once you have established a grip that suits you that you are able to progress to the more advanced skills. After examining the basic setup the authors turn to the all-important swing, as well as the vital skills of pitching, chipping and, arguably the most crucial of all, putting. While practice of these essential skills helps you to play a rewarding game, the more problematic areas have not been forgotten. The challenge of playing from uphill, downhill, and sidehill - or attempting to hit the ball from shallow water or sand bunkers - are just a few of the most common trouble shots covered. Filled with stop-motion photographs and easy-to-follow commentaries, the beginner will see exactly how to tackle some of the most tricky golf moves.
With invaluable tips and reassuring advice you will also learn how best to approach the course mentally. Golf Skills is an invaluable handbook for golfers at all levels. The reading equivalent of lessons from a pro, it will help you improve your game, avoid injuries, and correct common mistakes.
