A golf book by PGA and golfing legend Ben Hogan called Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf is an essential part of any serious golf student’s library. Hogan’s swing has stood the test of time over the years and is widely regarded to be the best swing in the history of golf. Hogan worked diligently on his swing for many years, beating balls till his hands bled so that he could craft a swing that he could trust under the most intense, tournament situations. The book condenses all of the wisdom that Hogan figured out for himself after many years of playing and presents them as five easy lessons that any amateur can put to practice. Hogan uses plain language to describe his techniques and theories, making it easy for even a novice to follow.

Improving our golf game is something we love to work at, but it’s important for golfers to look at every possible resource when finding advice.

For this reason, it’s one thing to go find a golf pro for instruction or pick up a magazine, but many golfers ignore getting a PGA golf book, even though it has contributions and advice for the top players.

An officially sanctioned book not only provides some of the absolute best advice, it also is carefully cultivated so that the PGA feels comfortable putting their name and brand on the cover.

There’s a lot of bad advice available to golfers so getting the advantage of a PGA golf book just makes the learning process easier.

If you are interested in improving your golf game, a good golf club book may be exactly what you need. Novice golfers can learn a lot about what golf clubs to use in various situations by reading a book about different clubs, especially when a book has the right set up to function as a quick reference when a new player is actually golfing.

For more advanced golfers, a golf club book can be exactly the right tool for taking the game to the next level. Many golfers get really good at the game before they really have a complete understanding of how to use individual clubs, so the right book can be an invaluable resource for allowing an advanced player to improve.

If you are in the market for a great book on golf, you might consider purchasing “Swing the Clubhead” by Ernest Jones. It’s not a new golf book, but the advice he gives is still very usable. In some ways this game hasn’t changed a whole lot, and even old instructional manuals like this can be very handy. Another wonderful book on golf is “Golf My Way” by Jack Nicklaus. He is one of the great examples of amazing players that also makes a really good teacher, and his book is a wonderful resource for any golfer. Any learning golfer should consider purchasing both of these as soon as possible.

the many women, both amateurs and professionals, from whom he had the privilege of teaching or learning.

Using the same simple language and clear images that made his first two books international best-sellers, Mr. Penick’s insightful wisdom for women golfers is timeless. His techniques to help women gain more power and distance and to determine when and where to outplay their male counterparts are priceless nuggets of gold. He teaches how every woman, regardless of her atheletic abilities, can play and enjoy golf to its fullest.

Regardless of your experience or lack thereof, this book is a must read for all women golfers!
