This is by far the best book I have ever read. It cuts through all the red tape on how to purchase your own personal set of golf clubs. I am like every other golfer, that always purchased brand-name expensive golf equipment, i. e. , King Cobra, Titleist and Callaway. I wish this book had been written long ago. It would have saved me major dollars on golf lessons, equipment, general questions about the game, and how it is played. I have many books on golf, such as “Swing Like a Pro”, “The Laws of the Golf Swing”, “Perfect Impact” books and DVD’s, Ben Hogan’s book on the “Five Laws” and also “Power Golf”. I have multiple training aids that I purchased Medicus swing trainer, impact bags, laser pointers, but nothing compares to what you will learn about the golf game and how it should be played, and more importantly, how to acquire the best golf clubs you have ever owned in your entire life. Answers can be found in this book about: Are golf clubs really getting better every year. Would I really score lower if I bought expensive brand name golf clubs How come touring professionals are scoring lower with the new equipment but the average golfer isn’t. What clubs should I be using. Why does my swing keep changing. Why does my alignment and setup position keep changing Is it even possible to learn to swing the same way twice. How do I lower my average score. What is the essence of good golf. What should be my primary objective on every swing. What is the most important shot on every hole. What is the greatest hazard in golf. Why is it that some aspects of my game never improve. What is the only way to achieve day-to-day consistency. I just cannot recommend this book enough. It’s changed the way I look at my golf game, and it will do the same for you. Why is it that no matter how many lessons I take, I always need more. All the answers to the above questions are in the book.

My name is John Hadley. Golf is a fearfully complex game. Physically and mentally. It can become even more perplexing if one is led down the rabbit hole of high-tech equipment hype and convoluted swing theory. Phil Moore does a magnificent job of melding his experiences as a master club maker with his discoveries as a low handicap golfer. His perspective is concise and thoughtful. The book is easy to read and follows a question and answer format that makes it interesting and shows good common sense. All golfers want to know how they can lower their average score. Phil Moore and this book will make you a better player.
