Helpful book as a beginner with some key pointers, my swing definitely improved after reading. The language explaining the swing mechanics and drills can be hard to understand at times, especially those without pictures.

Interesting theory on the golf swing
April 29, 2008
I read this book last year as I was learning how to play the game again. I hadn't played since I was about 17 years old and at the time I was encouraged to leave the game because I was "too big" in the shoulders and chest and too athletic to hold off my swing. Oh my, how my world could have been drastically different had I been introduced to someone with a one plane swing mentality.
Hardy's revolutionary book introduces the world to two distinct theories of the golf swing, one plane and two plane. I cannot overstate how huge this change in thought is to the world of golf instruction. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to play, has thought about playing, or knows someone who plays.

No wonder some pros say one thing and some say the opposite:they are teaching different swings. A must read for golfers just to find out which swing you are using and how to improve it
