Amazon.co.uk Review The daring claim of the title is a lot to live up to and Haney works hard to meet the challenge by focusing on the most essential part of the game--the swing. The book's 10 chapters are divided into three sections: "Understanding Your Swing," "Fixing Your Swing" and "Using Your Swing." Throughout, the secret at the core of his teaching should inspire in most golfers a sigh of relief: it's not how good the swing looks that matters, it's how well that swing strikes the ball. Through clear text and photo aids, Haney helps you understand the basic requirements of each shot well enough to fix mechanical problems without winding up in traction. He certainly helped Mark O'Meara, raising him from near oblivion to 1998 champion in both The Masters and the British Open. --Jeff Silverman

Good book concise and easy to understand. August 30, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
He fairly bums himself up in the 1st chapter or two but he talks a lot of sence and presents his ideas well. The author has a degree in education and this is reflected in the books presentation. What lets a lot of golf books down is the clumsiness in the way they try to put across the information. Photography could be better but overall this book is more about how YOU swing the golf club and knowing what to do to make it better rather than a book telling you exactly how you should be swinging the golf club. Good enough for Tiger is good enough for me.
The book I wish I'd had 30 years ago August 16, 1999 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
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.

Haney's book a masterpiece for educating you about the swing August 13, 1999 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Hank Haney's book is the most knowledgeable golf instruction book I've ever read. It takes you step by step through the process of analzying your ballflight, then applying that to fix your swing. It also paints an amazingly clear picture of understanding a very misunderstood part of the swing; the swing plane. I would highly recommend this book to anyone trying to further their knowledge of the golf swing.
THE BEST EVER July 13, 1999 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have been playing golf for about three years. Until I went to see pro at Hank Haney Golf Ranch at Mckinney, Texas, I stuggled with my swing, putting all the time. It is Mr. Haney's teaching program fixed my game for good. My handycap droped 20 points after I learn from his theory. Now I have a book signed by Mr. Kaney, it is a real bless. Believe me, I have read about 100 books, and I can tell you that this is the only one you need. I highly recommend this book to serious golfers. There so many tips, not many drills like you can find in other books. Some drills I learnd from other books actually ruin my game, totally useless and misleading. If you want to play a good game, follow Mr. Haney. He will lead you there.
After reading it, I still need to take another lesson. July 12, 1999 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Description of Mr. Haney's inventional teaching concept is pretty convincing. However, the pictures and how-to are hardly mentioned in the book.
