Product Description
The Definitive Guide to the Swing That Is Remaking Golf. By Michael Bennett & Andy Plummer, with Peter Morrice.Traditionally the golf swing requires coordination that few golfers have. Maverick Golf Instructors Michael Bennett & Andy Plummer spent a decade researching the swing and noted that few golfers have been able to lower their handicap by more than a stroke. Here with a combination of physiology and physics they have created a method called the Stack and Tilt". The result? A breakthrough method that big name professionals such as Mike Weir, Tommy Armour III and Aaron Baddeley have converted to; now accessible by everyone. Includes full-color photos, practice routines, test cases and point-by-point assistance.

 great swing concept, but book needs to be edited to simplify content August 7, 2010
Bob W (Avon, CT USA)
I purchased this book as I was interested in this golf swing concept, and was interested in learning more about it.
The book is well detailed and the swing changes that are involved, seem to make sense, but it is certainly not the best written book that I've ever read!
It is not the easiest golf instructional book to read and fully understand, and The pictures do not always seem to match the text.
I found myself repeatedly, re-reading portions of the text over and over again, in an effort to try to fully understand exactly what the authors meant.
This is a book that has to be read very methodically. It is not a "quick read and go try it" exercise.
The Stack and Tilt swing concept does seem to be logical, as it advocates minimizing body weight shifting movements that occur during the generally taught swing process, in order to (hopefully) provide a measure of greater consistency.
Since trying to incorporate the Stack and Tilt concept into my swing: I have lost a bit of distance, but have gained a greater measure of directional consistency. For me, that is a good compromise.
However; this swing change is still a work in progress for me, as old habits die hard.
I don't place much credence in the fact that several well known PGA Pros claim to have switched to this swing concept, as endorsements may be their primary motivating factor.
In summary; the golf swing changes that this book advocates, certainly make sense; especially for the golfer who cannot practice on a daily basis, as a more compact, consistent swing is the end result.
The book contains a wealth of information but does need to be edited in order to make it easier to understand and put into practice. Hopefully. any reprints of this book will incorporate these type changes.
 good book, good swing July 19, 2010
middnite (South Dakota USA)
This is an excellent system for ball striking. Makes a person more consistent. It is not easy to learn, and there will be many topped or smothered shots, but it's worth the struggle. Book has detailed explanations and many pictures. Some instruction books tell you how to do things and let it go at that. This book also tells you how to correct your problems like pulling, pushing, etc.
An easy to understand and follow GOLF SWING July 10, 2010
A newbee with GPS (cincinnati, OH)
The book should be read in conjunction with the DVD set. They both have helped me a lot in gaining a repetitve golf swing. After 6 months of lessons at Golftec, I began to feel frustrated for knowing what the right things to do but I could not execute and the scores instead of going down, went up by 3 to 4 per 9 holes. . Then I read this book and watched their DVD, voila now I can FEEL the right move with backswing, then the right move for hitting pass the ball. Yesterday, I played 9 holes in the heat but was able to reduce my score from average score 45 to 40 by keeping my weight forward and extending the arms out. It felt so good to see the ball in the fairway.
The book needs more photos to illustrate the points and that is why the DVD set needs to be bought along w the book.
Kindle & DVD Review-Stack & Tilt Golf Method July 10, 2010
John R. Hawkins (Riverside, CA)
Both the Kindle book and DVD training information for the Stack and Tilt Golf Method are really effective. I have been working for several years to fix my golf swing which is dominated by an over the top, inside out swing that was not making good contact, hitting behind the ball, lacking power and control, etc. I was barely a 36 handicap index player!
Then, I purchase both the Kindle Book and the DVD training information from Amazon.com. Today, really began to apply only the 1st training lesson that being making good contact and creating a divot ahead of the ball. It works, really works well. Obviously, this is only day #1 but the Stack and Tilt method is working. I can feel the difference and have new confidence in making effective contact, etc. Even my power has increased.
I can begin to wonder what this will do for my golf swing. Today, I shot an honest 95. Could have easily been sub-90, even 85. I have three holes that were 3 over par. Ugly but I knew how to revert to the basics and make good contact by tilting, etc. Granted, I have a long way go go but I know if I keep trying and applying the guidelines, I will shoot sub 85 and better soon.
As you can see from my evaluation, I rated Stack and Tilt with 5 big stars. Yep. Good information. I think I now have a chance to be a better golfer. Thank you very much.

Lowered my handicap July 8, 2010
Jon
I was a 13 handicap 2 months ago. Since I read this book and applied the Stack and Tilt Method my handicap has dropped to an 8. I don't practice very much but my drives are a lot straighter and I've been scoring better than I ever have. My last scores are 76,75,77 and 80. It has helped my golf game better than anything I have ever tried.
