Description

The Best Golf Tips Ever covers every aspect of the game, from equipment to swing technique to competitive golf. Individual chapters present tips using quotations from some of the most popular and best-selling golf instruction books, and tips which author Nick Wright has picked up during his years working with top pros. Each chapter is rounded off with an On-course Analysis feature, where one of the game's legendary pros puts the tips from that chapter into the context of one of the world's 18 greatest golf holes. In addition, an extensive cross-referencing system links tips for every aspect of your game to help take you from one chapter to another in search of the elusive swing thought.
