Book Review: Five Lessons: Modern Fundamentals of Golf
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is a classic golf instruction text -- without a doubt the best such book. I read this book at least once per year just to fine tune my golf swing -- or anytime the golf demons try to attack my swing. I have owned this book for many years, and in a recent move my old copy got lost, hence, the need to buy a new one. If you are a really serious golfer, this book should be a permanant part of your golf instruction library; if you're a beginner, it is a must for developing a sound golf swing. Tiger may be the best to ever play the game, but Hogan had the swing that amateurs should try to emulate.

Summary of Five Lessons: Modern Fundamentals of Golf

The building blocks of winning golf -- from one of the masters of the game.

Ben Hogan, one of the greatest golfers in the history of the sport, believed that any golfer with average coordination can learn to break 80 -- if one applies oneself patiently and intelligently. With the techniques revealed in this classic book, you can learn how to make your game work from tee to green, step-by-step and stroke by stroke.

In each chapter, a different tested fundamental is explained and demonstrated with clear illustrations -- as though Hogan were giving you a personal lesson with the same skill and precision that made him a legend. Whether you're a novice player or an experienced pro, Ben Hogan's Five Lessons is a must-have reference for anyone who knows that fundamentals are where champions begin.

Ben Hogan's premise in this 1957 classic is driven home in bold letters: "THE AVERAGE GOLFER IS ENTIRELY CAPABLE OF BUILDING A REPEATING SWING AND BREAKING 80." Religions are founded on less, and Hogan's detailed analyses and illustrated demonstrations of grip, stance, posture, and the two basic components of the swing make up a sacred book. Though its very simplicity seems dated, this is the tome of technique that should serve as the foundation of every golf library.
