Joseph Naus. Author 1 book 59 followers. It might very well be the most important golf book you'll ever read. Here's why: for every 1, golf instruction books, articles, and videos, involve the technical aspects of the swing e.
If you've been in the golf world, you know that most player's handicaps go up not down, and most players don't make positive changes to their golf game, even after spending a lot of money on lessons. Even if all this book does for you is introduce you to the concept of thinking about HOW to learn and practice, it'll be worth a hundred times what you paid for it.
We serious golfers have seen it over and over: The instructor tells a student something she or he already knows start the downswing with your hips, don't come over the top, post up on your front leg, shift your weight forward on the downswing It is really sad. I know, I've been there; and I think it drives a lot of people out the game. And do what Adam Young says! Stop wasting your time! Make those changes! I tell you: if you are, let's say, a 15 handicapper, and trying to get down to single digits, this book could save you years and thousands of dollars.
The obvious response to my review is, if it's so great, why did you give it 4 stars and not 5? Here's why: I have never seen a book in more desperate need of a heavy handed story editor, copy editor and proofreader than this book.
This book is cumbersome, unorganized, full of syntax errors, typographical errors, run-ons, and any other type of editing issue you can imagine. It's pages and it should be , tops. I don't blame Adam Young for this, necessarily. He's obviously a smart guy and a dedicated golf instructor who is trying to do more than the usual regurgitation of swing fundamentals. My sincere hope is that Mr. Young will take the proceeds of the sale of this first edition which I hope are high and hire a story and copy editor and have this book properly edited and published.
It's a gem, and needs to be polished. The good news regarding the unfortunate lack of editing is that it will have little effect on you golfers that need this book other than a few eye rolls and sighs. This book could be written in crayon, and it will still change your life as a golfer dramatically. So, bravo Adam Young. Your students and the readers of this book are in your debt as they watch their handicaps drop. Bob Mcbobson. Cultivate 1. Curriculum: 1. Customers 1. Daddy 2. Dadey 1. Daily 1.

The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes. Phil McGleno , sorry I am a little slow on the uptake I guessing you have looked at the book and don't care much for it? Or you do not care that much for the author? Ken Proud member of the iSuk Golf Association I got the book and started reading it. I like the concept of not putting a golfer into a "BOX" Everyone has their own swing, flat,loopy,upright, feet still, feet active,long backswing, short backswing, etc The author goes on to show a myriad of different golfers with different swings,all making tons of money and collecting big time hardware.
His point being that understanding clubface and path are very important factors to scoring. Most of us practice wrong. We look great doing it though, and we don't get that much better because of it. If we practice more with a purpose and a game plan, we'd get much more out of the session. I fall into that category. I'm a handicapper. But I've been practicing since to be 'meh'. Yesterday, I tried for the first time time to work on some things the book talked about in the first couple of chapters.
Club face and path. I just either couldn't get it or didn't want to get it. I wasted time and good money with Breed because I wanted instant gratification and when I didn't get it I didn't stay with it. Now reading the book I'm getting it. I'll practice with a different mindset now, one I should've been doing for the past year. I like the book so far.
It's easy to comprehend, and the author has a good website with interesting articles. It's all about understanding the clubface and path,the instant your club makes contact with the ball Not to speak for them but I think the keys 4 and 5 are path and face, and the others have to do with contact.
There is a thread here on how to practice properly too. It's not a bad thing to see other perspectives. No agenda here. Just do not like the book. I can not find it interesting that you did not know that you had to practice things before you took them to the course? That you had to control your clubface and path? What does that have to do with anything? I have no allegiance to Erik he does not like being called Eric-He has mentioned it to me twice or ten times.
I am expressing my surprise that it took a super heavy thick dense-In More ways than one-book to make you realize that you had to practice. That you thought you could get instant gratification in GOLF? Hey it is not like I called you an idiot.
I just said I was surprised it took you buying a twenty pound tome to realize that you had to practice and things would not instantly get better for you. And for those who are looking to Phil McGleno for an unbiased review - I wouldn't count on it. The guy has a personal vendetta against me to each their own , hence the instant bashing of the book without any knowledge of its contents. Ernest - yes, the free Ebook is what it is free and aimed more towards less info-seeking golfers.
The Practice Manual is a very different animal - more for the serious golfer who wants to know more in depth details about how to link the motor learning research to practical applications. Sinned said "Now reading the book I'm getting it. I'll practice with a different mindset now, one I should've been doing for the past year".
That was the main goal of the book. I also wanted to look at skill development strategies as opposed to pure technical work. Skills are often. No I do not.
