This book can certainly make you a better golfer. It also explains what gives a golf swing its power and consistency.

We are lucky in America to have such a person working for us as a physicist, educator, and now as an author.

He book is easy to read if you want information. A little more difficult if you want proof…but he has it in depth.

Where do you find enough muscle in the human body to create two horsepower in less than a second. The answer is there and if you can execute what he tells you, you too, can shoot par after a little work.

The book is a steel at $30.00; but is even better if you buy it from Amazon. The going price used shows that the book gives advise to the harried golfer which results in some incredible stores of good golf.

Thank you Ted for your work and thank you Amazon for letting me give praise to my new Ghuru.

The book was motivated by the author’s intention to improve his golf game (imagine how bad he could be to have such strong motivation), although he didn’t mention the outcome (sounds like it worked at least on two folks). Why? I can assure you that it doesn’t work and he is still searching for the answers, just like all those reviewers and the majority of the readers are.

I’m just wondering how much time the author really spent on swinging the club (probably not much) or watching others (maybe some, but whom?) do? If not, how did he come up with the idea of what the golf swing is and even study it? I know, from reading a lot of literatures just like every scientist does. Then a model he believed the closest to the real swing was proposed, so that a lot of equations and computer works can be done to support the ideas (from reading the literatures) he believed, although not all of them were explained, which are either current unknown or more work needs to be done in the future. A typical example of how science is being conducted? Will the resultant information help? God knows! My question is, if the initial ideas (from others) are unquestionable, then why studied them again? What’s the hypothesis? I mention these because I am a scientist and know the tricks, too. Scientists are humans just like everybody. Don’t believe whatever they say (at least not until they become single-digit handicaps)!

The book is merely another version of the existing ideas about golf swing decorated with some terms in physics, mathematical equations and computer generated data, using selected opinions to support selected results and conclusions. Sorry, good try!

Golf swing becomes such a difficult stuff simply because nearly all of the concepts we are getting are far from the reality. People who master it can maybe describe it or the feel about it but hardly explain it. “Why bother? I can do it well?” Others see what’s going on here and there but has no idea how they happen? Most of the time, we only see the results but not the causes, and work so hard to make the results happed.

Instructions on golf swing have existed ever since the game was invented. If they work (does not have to be all of them), why people still have trouble getting it? Most of the teaching pros should have been out of jobs. But people are still reading the same stories over and over again and keep struggling. The real experts (with some talents) gain their swings, most of the time (or with a bit help from other experts), by trial-and-error and experimenting through various methods and hard practice. Until the real principle being revealed, these are still the best ways to build a golf swing. This is also how I figure out my way, which is totally different from what the “mainstream” says, to swing the club. Being 5’6″ and weight 110 lb., I hit my driver consistently dead straight for ~240 yards.

Will you buy the book? It’s totally up to you!! At least it will make you think harder. I would rather spend my effort on the driving range to experiment it more.
