Book Reviews of Golf Handbook for Women: The Complete Guide to Improving Your Game
Book Review: A Glossy Presentation w/ Some Teeth
Summary: 5 Stars
Further efforts to find an updated, complimentary text for my golf-learning girlfriend led me to this pleasant offering. Nicely packaged, slick and glossy, it pictorially compliments more mechanical texts like Ben Hogan's Fundamentals. This book is well laid out, discussion of golf equipment is presented right off the bat. Grip, stance, posture follow in order. It reads like a collection of easy to follow magazine-style lessons. Interestingly, immediately following the basic structures they include information on shot shaping, dealing w/ pulls, pushes, fades, draws, etc. which may be overkill for that point in the instruction. Ultimately though it is quite a nice `guide', touching on golf etiquette thankfully, providing some interesting exercises, and running down oft used golf rules. Hopefully the presentation will score some points; seeing all the women in the examples, and hearing the voice of the female author versus some of the gender neutral or male dominated texts I've thrown at her. Ah golf!
