Golf: Play the Golf Digest Way: Hone Your Game- From Green to Tee I don’t do a lot of book reviews.  For some reason I can last a few pages reading and then I get very sleepy.  A reference book however, is a different story.  I like books like this one, which I can refer to as needed.

Golf: Play the Golf Digest Way: Hone Your Game- From Green to Tee

Golf: Play the Golf Digest Way: Hone Your Game- From Green to Tee is a 320 page golf instruction book by Ron Kaspriske with contributions from Hank Haney, Butch Harmon, Jim McLean, Phil Mickelson and Tom Watson.

This book is a substantial size at 8.5×11 inches.  Inside the pages are 300+ full color illustrations and diagrams by golf pros and instructors covering every imaginable golf teaching subject as listed below.

Chapters

  • Putting
  • Chipping
  • Pitching
  • Bunker Play
  • Irons
  • Woods/Hybrids
  • Driver
  • The Next Step

As the title and chapter list above indicate, this book takes the player from green to tee, not tee to green.  It is said that the best way to teach or learn golf is by starting with the putter next to the hole.  Make a six inch putt, then move to 12 inches.  Keep moving back, all the way to the tee!  That’s what this book does.

The photos and descriptions are excellent, and there are many of the top players from Tiger Woods to Phil Mickelson to Rickie Fowler featured in the illustrations and photos.  Below is an example by Phil Mickelson showing how to hit out of wet sand:
