What books do you recommend?

I just purchased Lowest Score Wins.  Really looking forward to reading it and applying the principles.

Now, what other books do you all recommend?

iacas,  just golf books for now.   My pleasure reading book list is already quite long.  But hey.. I am up for those too!.. Still

enjoy holding the real deal.

Golf in the Kingdom by Michael Murphy.

With the exception of one word on the back of the book (tale), it reads like a very real story.

It's my bible.

Besides Lowest Score Wins, I'd recommend "The Practice Manual" by Adam Young.   Amazon is a good place for used books.

On Learning Golf, by Percy Boomer

We have a section, Reading Room, that details a lot of books on golf. My favorites, in addition to LSW and some mentioned above, are The Art of Putting by Stan Utley, Dave Stockton's Unconscious Putting. These two defined the way I set up and my routine for putting (along with some coaching from my Evolvr instructors).

Utley's The Art of the Short Game is pretty good too.

I think it is worthwhile to read Jack's book and Tiger's more for their perspective than instruction. Harvey Penick's The Little Red Book is quirky, but charming anyway. Hogan's Five Lessons is popular too.

Thank you for the recommendations.  I found the "Reading Room" and have been marking books to read.
