DESCRIPTION:
"Golf Delusion is absolutely gorgeous to hold and to read as a gift, it will definitely be appreciated." —The San Francisco Book Review/The Sacramento Book Review
"Not much help!" according to Freeneuron. The book is well made and has good pictures. I liked the title, but there is unfortunately very little practical info. There are a few sparse exercises and pictures of proper positions to be in a various stages of the swing. The info has no real instruction on how to do what they suggest. They might be great teachers in person, but this book is more about ads for their school, pictures of famous clients and IMHO very little use for someone to learn how to swing a golf club. Ultimately, I think they are saying that the "delusion" is that golf tips wont do it on their own. You h. Lots of Bragging, Very Little Teaching I realize that this book has gotten very good press, but after reading it cover to cover I'm still scratching my head. Aside from too many anecdotes bragging about how good they are as teachers and continually reminding us where their school is, the authors spend very few pages actually teaching plying their trade.

But amazingly, despite a wealth of instructional material and access to the latest teaching technology, golfers of today are no better than they were when the school first opened its doors almost 60 years ago. They still cling hopelessly to the delusion that the next golden tip or instant fix will suddenly and magically transform them from rabbit to Tiger. This guide explains that sadly no such tip exists, and outlines a proven, time-tested swing model that guarantees a program for immediate and sustained improvement. The history of the school is also celebrated, with such stories as Sean Connery learning from Leslie King the skills he needed for his famous golf match in Goldfinger, and Telly Savalas perfecting his golf swing in front of a mirror in Harrods, and such developments as using video to show golfers their own swing and how it can be improved.. The model swing taught at the exclusive golf school whose pupi
