Old Lessons Are the Best
We like old books around here, obviously. If you want to learn golf, one of the most highly recommended instructional books is one that turns 60 years old next year: On Learning Golf by Percy Boomer. Here are a few of the things that people say about it:
"The War & Peace of golf. ... Boomer will probably go down in the annals of golf history as the finest teacher in the history of the game. He does this by explaining the proper conception of the golf swing as one athletic movement, not a series of positions to reach as in modern instruction."
"Of all the golf books I have read, and I have read over a hundred, this pearl has done the most to improve my game. I learned why standing on the practice mat trying to think through the swing did not improve my game."
"To put it bluntly...Percey Boomer is God."
On Learning Golf even has an introduction by the Duke of Windsor. Can't beat that!
