 Good Learning Tool But Dangerous In The Wrong Hands August 6, 2008
Ben Hogan's Five Lessons should be a must in every golfer's library. However, I believe this book can be dangerous in the wrong hands. Hogan appears to have been ahead of his time on some issues discussed in Five Lessons so there is a lot of good information to take away from this book. However, not everything he discusses is appropriate for every player. It takes a discerning eye to figure out what would be beneficial to an individual player and what would be detrimental.
The book is an easily read book with very good illustrations and there are five different main lessons which I have listed below...
* The Grip
* The Stance & Posture
* The First Part of the Swing
* The Second Part of the Swing
* Summary & Review
While I highly recommend this book and its lessons I can't overemphasize the benefit of a) getting fitted for your clubs by a qualified person and b) actual one on one instruction from a professional.
 Wow! July 29, 2008
Amazing how much this 50 yr old book changed my swing for the better. This book was easy to read and apply on the range.
Five Lessons: Modern Fundamentals of Golf July 22, 2008
This book is a classic golf instruction text -- without a doubt the best such book. I read this book at least once per year just to fine tune my golf swing -- or anytime the golf demons try to attack my swing. I have owned this book for many years, and in a recent move my old copy got lost, hence, the need to buy a new one. If you are a really serious golfer, this book should be a permanant part of your golf instruction library; if you're a beginner, it is a must for developing a sound golf swing. Tiger may be the best to ever play the game, but Hogan had the swing that amateurs should try to emulate.
The Bible On Golf Basics July 4, 2008
If you are new to golf or have golfed for years - this is the bible. It may not be the modern golf swing used by Tiger - but if you want to create a grooved repeatable swing this is the book for you.
five amazing lessions July 1, 2008
this is an amazing book. there are 5 sections with great pictures to show what you need to do to have a superb swing. the reading also has a mental approach which helps to have a mind set. after reading the first chapter on grip, i began hitting the ball straight. i can't wait to finish reading the rest of the book to see how much better i will golf. i highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to golf better.
