Worthy read.

I think the author stuck to his promise, stating that his method would be simple and easy to repeat . I agree, and I used his method readily . With only a few hours of practice I was able to get up and down several times during my round the next day. I can honestly say that the author provided me with a plan where normally I would not have had one. Thanks!
I think that the description of the swing process might even be a little too simplified in some respects. Perhaps a more in depth description is necessary for the reader. But I may be wrong. For now, I'm living proof that his book and his method has helped me during the first round in which I used it.

Simple methods and easy to understand.

Quick read. To the point, no nonsense advise. Read the first half on chipping went to my clubs practice area and promptly put twenty balls within a foot of the cup from that area (past the fringe in longer grass where most people opt to use a putter) that is very intimidating because it takes a good deal of touch to execute.
I especially appreciate the one swing for all of my short game shots. Adjusting the b lack swing and it ball position is easy to remember once you've done it a few times.
Spoiler alert: You do have to go out there and actually practice these tips. Reading the book and hoping for osmosis to kick in won't cut it.

Good read

Good read. The golf tips are simple yet technical (meaning specific techniques to achieve success yet very understandable). Since I am a novice at the game, I look forward to trying the techniques to get better at golf. Let you know how the game progresses!

Good short game instructions.

The instructions are simple to understand. I anxious to try these techniques on the practice tee. I feel it will help my game with a little more practice. I would also like to read J F Tamayo,s book on the golf swing.

simple and easy to learn..

I can remember the steps and so it’s not gotten lost at the actual game.

I will hope that there could be more photos and not distorted from digital printing.

This actually works!

Immediately saw a big improvement in my short game and saved 5 to 7 shots in an average round. I wish I had read this guide many years ago! Well written and easy to follow.

Interesting read

I found the concepts to be sound but the straight on photos of the swing are a little strange. The author chose to position the player in a corner of the picture. I don’t get that. Otherwise, good job.

No pictures

No pictures on my Amazon fire, so not a lot of good trying to follow what your saying when I can't see what your doing.

A great book.

Goes on a bit but think this represents the best teaching through the written word. Has certainly improved my game.

This book was the essence of of the KISS principle, “keep it simple stupid,” in golf. It made a great deal of sense. Sure hope it works!

Worse book I ever read. Total waste of time could have rapped this up in 20 pages not 109.
Hope I can get a refund.

A Must read book

Could not believe the results in such a short period of time. Could not believe how close I was leaving the ball to the hole after reading your book. The transition was so easy. Thank you. Sure wish you would have left a email address so I could communicate with the author.

Inexplicably "works"

Just being able to see the ball 'consistently' headed where aimed is exhilarating and is proof positive that your explained method can be validated !!
