A golf instruction book written by Graham Hawkings, PGA Advanced
Golf Coach with over thirty years of experience of teaching all
standards of player, from the complete beginner to the elite
competitor. The book takes you on a journey in which you will learn
how to maximise your own personal strengths, at the same time as
giving you the necessary information you need to improve you
weaknesses. The basis of the book is that we all have what Graham
calls our own individual "DEFAULT GOLF SWING" this is the one which
we were born with, unfortunately very rarely is this the method
that will allow us to reach our optimum performance level. However
what our DEFAULT SWING provides us with is a framework on which we
can with one or maybe a number of tweaks allow us to capitalise on
our natural skills. Using tried and tested methods DEFAULT GOLF
offers the reader in plain and easily understood language the
opportunity to maximise their potential by travelling along a
structured route. It begins in Part one with a brief explanation of
the impact that the golf clubhead has on the flight that the golf
ball will take, but the book never deviates from its initial theme
that a golfers performance is totally their own responsibility. No
one method is preferred to another, the reader is encouraged to go
out and explore various options. Like all good teachers Graham
tells you where you need to look to find improvement but he doesn't
necessarily tell you what to see.
Surprisingly, perhaps, cricket is a game rich in international
history, sporting characters and, on occasions, controversy. Over
his long career as a cricket commentator and journalist Ralph
Dellor has met some of the greatest exponents of the "summer" game.
In the 1990s he conducted a series of face-to-face taped interviews
with famous cricketers past and present. Along with Stephen Lamb,
his fellow sports journalist and business partner, he has edited
and annotated the interviews so they are put into context of time
and place. Each chapter is a classic piece of cricketing history
and insight into the legends and lore of the game. Featuring such
names as Denis Compton, Brian Statham and Cyril Washbrook.

it...Yet. So when Jarvis discovers that Evans is putting together a
hooligan 'Super Crew' to follow the England national soccer team to
Italy, he feels sure he can finally put Evans behind bars - if only
someone can infiltrate the group and get him the proof he needs.

for a full-on riot. Jarvis thinks he's trafficking drugs. But Billy
Evans is always one step ahead. He has another plan. And it will be
catastrophic for everyone concerned. EXCEPT HIM.
