This is a book for golfers. It is utterly charming and lays out an approach to golf which makes sense and will, hopefully, help my game. Mr. Boomer has a wry sense of humor and no nonsense golf direction.

A charming classic.

Loved this book not just because of the golf instruction but also for the style of writing and terminology used by Percy Boomer. Boomer - what a great name for a golf pro. Any golfer can discover something maybe they didn’t know about hitting a golf ball or an explanation of a swing factor that might trigger enlightenment on a notion they don’t quite understand. I especially loved the chapter where Percy is giving a lesson to a mathematician. Just remember that the book was written in 1946 and the author was at his prime in the 20’s and 30’s.

The best golf instruction book ever written, period.
