How I Play Golf, Tiger Woods, Golf Digest Editors Amazon.com Editorial Review No athlete has changed his sport the way Tiger Woods has transformed the world of golf. The Tiger phenomenon has
created a new legion of golfers, seduced by Woods's almost effortless mastery of this
most difficult game. In How I Play Golf Woods reveals the many facets of his game and offers a plethora of tips and advice aimed at all levels of play. Unlike most golf guides, and
perhaps somewhat surprising from a player best known for his long game, How I Play Golf begins with the short game--putting, chipping, and pitching--before moving onto swing
mechanics and hitting off the tee. Produced in conjunction with the editors of Golf Digest, the book is lavishly photographed and illustrated and offers a gold mine of useful ideas and
mental images Tiger has collected over the years. Throughout, Tiger recounts memorable shots from his relatively brief career; for example, his only "perfect" shot (a 3-wood on No.
14 at St. Andrews) and his first putt at the 1995 Masters (a 20-footer for birdie on No. 1 that missed and rolled off the green). How I Play Golf is not only a first-rate instructional guide, it also
communicates a passion and respect for the game that beginners, hackers, and low handicappers should find inspiring. Highly recommended. --Harry C. Edwards BROWSE/ORDER Hardcover (You may put it in your cart and return)
Training A Tiger, Earl Woods
This book is not a book about golf. It's about a father, and a very famous son. We have followed young
Tiger since he was five years old, and have always been impressed with Earl Woods. In rais ing a child, Earl firmly believes and practices the notions that "love is a given," and "respect has to be earned." In his view, a child should be disciplined in a respectful relationship
rather than as a response to the parent's so called "superior" position. And Earl talks a lot about getting down to the child's level in order to gain that respect. If
results are any indication, Earl Woods is really on to something.
We recommend this book to everyone. We think Earl's ideas are the only way this
world is going to truly show improvement, parents dealing with their children with unconditional love, and earned respect. This is the best way, in our opinion, to
facilitate the passing of wisdom to the young from the old. BROWSE/ORDER Hardcover (You may put it in your cart and return)
