Summary:
John Jacobs, one of golf's most respected teachers, has either played
against, talked with, or given a tip to just about every significant
player in the last half of the 20th century. Combining his personal
experience with an enormous knowledge of the game, he's assembled 50
important lessons--some general, some quite specific--offered
alphabetically from (#1) how Seve Ballesteros relies on imagination
in his shot-making to (#50) how Tiger Woods sets his eyes over the
ball when putting. Jacobs addresses all parts of the game by using
the mechanics and mental preparation of 34 pros--from old-timers like
Henry Cotton and Harry Vardon to today's bright lights of the
fairways. This is no mere tutorial, though. Through bios and photos
of each player and lots of Jacobs's personal anecdotes, 50 Greatest
Golf Lessons teaches the history and evolution of the golf swing with
relevance to today. Better yet, for golfers who want to improve their
games--and is there a golfer among us who doesn't?--Jacobs's complete
analyses of each lesson come with important suggestions for how to
take the lessons with you from the page right out to the golf course.
