Well executed swing instruction with links to video
The book provides clear, easily understood summary instruction for putting, chipping, pitching, bunker shots, flop shots and full swing. Utley advocates for all swings to reflect the fundamental physics of golf: every club moves on an arc tilted side on to the golfer. I noticed that he describes the full swing down swing as starting with dropping the arms before turning the hips. This differs from Ben Hogan's approach, which starts the downswing by turning the hips first.
On the Kindle, the video links worked well. I recommend this book especially for the putting and short game instruction and the 30 minute daily practice plan.
