The Complete Idiot s Guide to Golf, Second Edition, is here to help anyone from a beginning "weekend duffer" to a solid intermediate player. This books specifically helps readers rethink technique, deconstruct their swing, and examine their short game. From the basics of the game including rules and play to the strategy of course management, these authors go beyond grip and follow-through to help readers look at the total game and find those round-winning shots. They also cover drills and practices from tees to chip shots, putting essentials, specialty shots (and how to avoid having to use them), and troubleshooting. With new coverage of gym workouts that will improve the golf game and some great tips on dressing and acting the part, this book is a well-rounded guide to all the basics of the game.

Explores the plights of those brow-beaten golfers who have been hopelessly hooked on the game for decades but to their collective dismay, have never been even average -- much less competent -- at playing the game they love. This hilarious book, perhaps the first every written for duffers by a member of their ranks, offers compelling evidence why a fellow duffer can give more relevant evidence on how to improve duffers' feeble golf games then perhaps a professional can. Author Dennis Vannatta's often outrageously funny advice on how to improve and how to save money contains countless lessons learned and humorous anecdotes about his frequently frustrating 40-year love affair with golf that will entertain not only duffers, but newcomers, accomplished players and anyone who loves the game -- or enjoys side-splitting laughter.
