The Only Golf Lesson You'll Ever Need: Easy Solutions to Problem Golf Swings

Tiger Woods picked the right guy -- I am a 7 handicap and this is the best golf instruction book I have ever read (Nicklaus, Hogan, Woods, Watson, Harmon, Penick, Couples, Floyd, etc.). The one-plane angle concept is so technically sound and the only golf-aid you need to dramatically improve your swing is a mirror. Excellent pictures help capture exactly what Hank is explaining. At any level, this book is a cornerstone for building a bomb-proof golf swing. Most importantly, hit good shots and enjoy it -- instead of going to find it :)!

I have read many golf instruction books but this one by Hank Haney has to be one of the best.The photographs are very good and illustrate the principles discussed extremely well.I finally found a swing thought that controls my reverse pivot problem that often ruins my drive.The grip and alignment advice helped greatly the first time I went out on the course.If you only read one book on golf instruction, this is the one to buy.

Fairly new golfer, got down into the low 80's without any lessons, but although I could drive fairly well (250ish) I couldn't hit an iron to save my life(5 iron 150 yards). I gave this book five stars, not because of it's brilliant "innovation" or anything like that, but when coupled with a pro who teaches in the same vein as this book, you can re-invent your game very quickly. I've added three clubs to my irons, (5 iron is now 195) and it's all because I teamed up with a pro at Hank Haney golf ranch, and read the book and reviewed on my off time. Took me 10 weeks, now I'm a 4 handicapper, and I owe it to my pro and the Hank Haney methodoligy. Change your ball flight, change your game.

Hank Haney's concept of a swing traveling through a series of parallel planes is the most valuable golf idea I ever encountered. It changed everything for me. Now I have a really good swing that I understand. The strange thing is that nobody else writes about this concept. Other authors differ, writing about the club always pointing at the target line, or about a single pane of glass, or about a curved swing plane. However, Haney's concept makes tremendous sense and really works!

This could be the definitive modern instruction manual. Having read all the famous books from Ernest Jones to Hogan to Leadbetter and a lot of others in between, there is a lot of room for confusion. This book cleared the fog for me. Two things in the book are revelations: the body versus hands section and the discussion of the importance of the plane. I now feel for the first time in 30 years of golf that I have the comprehension framework to fix my own swing, slowly but surely, rather than trying this and trying that. Because it takes so long to get the feel for a swing change, unless you're on the right track, you can spend a whole golfing lifetime in the wilderness, going from one teacher to another, knowing you should be playing better but never really getting there. Thanks to this book, I can confidently analyse my own swing and, more importantly, know how to fix it. I sincerely hope this book gets the recognition it deserves.
