I finished "reading" this book, but not "finished" with the book. This is a great book to use as a reference after you read it and do the exercises/workbook in it. I don't think you'll be disappointed with this book......if you are insterested in golf of course.

Thank you to Goodreads for my chance to win this book. This is not a book that you can "read" and review quickly. I do thank everyone involved with my winning a copy.
