How to Master a Great Golf Swing, 2nd Edition
have read this book three times, and each time my i have picked up a better understanding of the physical requirements of a good golf swing. while there are 15 steps to a better swing, most of them are done before you start the club back. in the end the author emphasises that you cannot use concious thoughts once you start the backswing. concious thoughts will interfere with a good swing. this book provides understanding, and with understanding comes concentration and a lower score.
Rating: 5 / 5
Excellent book. I have played for quite a while and sometimes have not understood the cause and effect of flaws in the swing. This book explains them all. From grip to follow through.

I was chosen as one of the top golf instructors of the nineties in L.A. and Palm Springs and many of Ms. Lupo’s techniques are similar to what I taught. I particularly liked the drawings by her husband. A couple of her swing ideas are a little off the mark but most are accurate and very good.

I have read mucho golf books and this one is great for telling you how to perform fundermentals rather than just identifying what is a geat swing method. I have been working with this book for a month and my swing is getting better, better, and better. Also consistancy is taking hold. The illustrations are 1st class…… I am an 8 handicap and dropping….

I was a Physiology Teaching Fellow in a university and an avid golfer since the time I was about 12 years old. Since that time, I have read many books on golf and the mechanics of the golf swing. In general, I’ve been frustrated by poor and incomplete descriptions in the past. This is because I think most great golfers don’t have the ability to articulate what the actually are doing when they are making a swing. Their knowledge is embodies and underneath awareness. This book is unique in that it provides that missing information and presents it in a logical, clear and comprehensive manner including all the important details.
In addition, this book is not so technical that it is unreadable by the average person. All of the concepts, even the more suble or complex are presented in a straightforward and concise manner. I believe this is a monumental achievement and a valuable contribution to the golf literature.
This text will help you to understand EVERY aspect of a good golf swing, why it’s important, what can go wrong and how to make corrections. There is not a single aspect of the swing or any element to it that is left out from feet placement, movement around various joints, etc. It also teaches you how to feel these things in your body and raised your awareness of how different things going wrong feels.
In my opinion, this book should be on every golfer’s shelf…. amateur and professional alike. It is a rare gem and one that will help you to improve your game. While it won’t take the place of golf lessons by an excellent teacher, it will help you to digest what your pro is trying to tell you and give you the concepts you need to make improvements on your own.
