More than six million golfers turn to the pages of Golf Digest for
answers to their most perplexing golf questions and for tips on how
to improve their game. Now, Golf Digest turns to its team of
players, teachers, and advisors to compile the definitive
instruction manual from more than 60 years of publication. This
ultimate instruction book includes easy-to-follow instructions,
photos, and diagrams of all the skills players of all levels need
to improve their game from green to tee.
            Chapters
focus on specific skills, including putting, chipping, pitching,
bunker play, irons, fairway woods and hybrids, and drivers. This
book is written the way great instructors tell their students to
learn the game: from green to tee, not the other way around. This
is not a beginner’s approach. It’s how good players review and
re-vamp their games when things get off track. Putting and other
elements of the short game are vital to scoring and the first place
players look to get their scores back down. This is learning the
Golf Digest way—no gimmicks—using a fundamental logic that
somehow has escaped too many instructional books.
            Each
section provides an excellent platform for practice sessions—from
warm-up through cool-down exercises, as well as basic to advanced
drills. Stressing the need to create a positive environment during
practice and encourage creativity as well as technical correctness,
this book serves as an essential tool for coaches as well as
players to improve performance and enjoyment of the game.
            This
indispensable reference book is fully illustrated with clear
action-sequence photos of and tips from the best players and
instructors who have served as contributors throughout Golf
Digest’s history. Among them: Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Tom
Watson, Butch Harmon, David Leadbetter, Phil Mickelson, Annika
Sorenstam, Rickie Fowler, Hank Haney, Lorena Ochoa, Stan Utley,
Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Dave Stockton, Rick Smith, Paula
Creamer, Ernie Els, and Jim McLean.
