Thanks, Erik. I just picked this up last week and have no idea if it is worth reading or not. If not, I'll learn to check the Reading Room reviews before I shop again (I should do this anyway).

I like Hank and would love to have the chance to work with him in person. I think good things can come from books in the form of tips, but nothing can replace having a live lesson with a PGA certified professional. Every player has unique problem area's and no one book is right for everyone. I would rather see money spent on a real lesson than spent on a book. JMO of course.

Great instruction book. Haney's philosophy of working with the swing YOU currently have is my preference.

seems aimed at higher handicap players but it does not appear to me like it would help anyone's game much. there are a few tips that could be useful to some but overall and in every way possible it leaves much to be desired. supposed to be a golf lesson from hank in book form but that format just doesn't really work. i would not recommend this one.

was that a real dog?

Golf is a complex game where so many elements of the golf swing are interconnected. One minute aspect of your swing can impact the results dramatically. Golf lessons from a qualified professional are likely to help any golfer improve on their game. There are different kinds of golf lessons that are sure to fit any golfers schedule, budget, or needs.

I hate "golf lessons" based on your "typical" golfer in either book or DVD form. They start with correcting a grip I don't use to eliminate the swing I don't make to cure the slice I don't have.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
