Golf--Old and New Golf--Books--I thought I'd learn--got carried away--

Somewhere I mentioned I would show you where I started buying my Golf books well I finally found the Catalogue--

Eventually you will notice I lead up to things--I will show you two books that will change your golf game--both books still have to be read--with the idea that you have to fit things that are comfortable for you and to your body style--we're not all built alike-duh--but what you were born with--the right preparations is enough to fit your style into a game of golf you can be proud of--and challenging--to all comers--as you can tell from the listing of the golf books I have listed--everybody with a ghost writer has a word or two on their great games--if you notice when they were written--it was during a time when their game and their popularity was prime time--thank you America--I not going to coat anything with a big fat cherry with whip cream on top--I'm going to plant a seed in the soul of your earth and only wish if you follow what I telling you--you want be disappointed in the results when you confront other golfers--who are better than you--each area in golf has a point--we're talking--Driving--Long irons--Short irons--Putting…that's it--hey what do you say--give it a shot--I can only open your eyes a little bit wider--and narrow down your thoughts to the main goal-- holing out…I'm not going to bore you with courses--their layout--their tricks--sand traps--entrances, we're not into those--we're into accuracy--pin point control--

The game of golf to be played like you see on T.V. has to be played around practice--and when I say practice --I mean a lot of it--you see those pieces of tape on the golfers hands--those are from beating balls--over and over again--you slack off on practice and your game goes right down the tubes--at first you wonder how they can do it day in and day out--they're after a living--and they've probably made some kind of commitments along the way--so yes they enjoy what they're doing until it becomes too much and they always are wondering if they made the right decision--welcome to the real world-

The Swing--there is no other way to improve your game without--it---no way--so you better have it together--and you better be using the big muscles to pull it through--if you think you can play good golf using your brain--and a throwing type of swing forget it--the effortless swing you see the Pro's use can only be accomplished by utilizing the big muscles of your back--staying focused--and letting those same muscles--not fling your arms but pulling them through the process of your natural swing…the arms are not thrown--they are pulled through the shot to the target in your minds eye--that pulling power--drives everything towards the main objective which in golf is holing out---as quickly as possible---practicing is getting focused on objective number one--"swing"and timing, because when out on the course--timing has to be considered it is one of the criteria to solidifying your game--to the point when crunch time comes looking for you--you can rely on your swing to pull you through to a decent score--when you practice you're not to worry or even think where the ball falls as long as it is in the general area--practice time is devoted to timing and to swing development-a working coordination--after this synchronization--you are on your way to truly seeking a target to the best of your ability and now you have something that you can seek a target with--so start aiming--you are the Phantom--seeking a goal--  

If you can't find your game in one of these books I have you really need to be doing something else--what you do-- is you go through--the golf books pick out systems you can follow and apply them to yourself in ways that are comfortable--don't let anyone pull you out of your comfort zones--if you do you're playing there game of golf with your body--you take what you pick out and experiment--getting what you think might start in your comfort zone--you apply it by trying it out the driving range--then as you practice--you adjust (make adjustments) each time you find a complication to your comfort--go back to the books for another look-see--or gent in touch with an instructor--who appreciates what you're trying to do--in your way--I introduce you to this first book because--these a lot of interest in it about golf and golfers--were taking about Dan Jenkins here and he's no slouch in the story department--al this boils down to making you mentally and physically comfortable--and believe me you'll need all I'm trying to do for you--cause you meet all kinds on the golf course--  

I will try to explain or you can forget this I am about to say and go straight into looking over the Golf books--most of the came from a Golf Book Store in Scotland. I started looking for Golf Books because I thought I'd learn try and learn to play--well as you can see I got carried away--it seems when I start something I want make sure that I have books --if I have questions I can answer them--I also have books on Mysteries, Gardening, Pool, Soccer, Fiber Craft, and mind boggling stuff--which I think expands the mind to relieve the pressure of day to day life--and let's me think I'm home free--give me a beer--here goes---physically on the course--you need a little bit of shape--not like a barrel but some that represent a little bit in the way of strong--some times you're going to have to call on effort--so get your self ready because the little bit of effort I'm asking is for your own good--and on the course your going to think you're being pushed--but in really you're just up against someone whose had more practice --maybe a better athlete on one whose game is tighter than yours--effort--practice will take care of him--

I do plan on picking out the ones I love--mainly because they are interesting--look at Golf from a strange perspective--give you some new ideas--or just good reading in front of the fireplace on a rainy day or during the winter time--you might call me a clearing house--on getting rid of the junk--some of it anyway--

and some of these books have some really good pictures and some have excellent short stories about old time Golfers that I've learned to respect--just from reading about them and their histories--if I can remember--I'll try and select them and star them--go back and take a gander at this guys swing--just the picture let's you know the ball went a long way--they said at one time his swing was so compact he could swing in a phone booth--Doug Sanders--hmmm--

Yes I have a few more I even have some I haven't registered on paper--I'm moving my books from the house to a Library I built in my Garage--so when i run across them I shower you with the books themselves--front and maybe the contents--

When I go over these the stories of written by Charles Price--are priceless--and some of the history of Golf by Peter Dobreiner's is good food for the brain cells--when you are getting ready for a match and need some inspiration--or to build up some enthusiasm--for the thought to keep your game in perspective--

I think what I better do is go feed my dogs--it's there supper time --I always feed them at the same time everyday or very close--to the same time everyday so they'll get use to knowing I true to my habits and believe me they pick up on time because it's run by there brain--They hover--they get picky-- they get anxious--and some times they get in fights cause I don't think they realize what's causing their anxiety--it's chemical--well anyway--while I go feed them I'll go out to the library and start bring in some Golf books to show you what they look like --it'll be fun--even though I have them and you can't read them I'll show you some and I'll bring a catalogue in from where I buy them and you can see his range he offers--

These are not going to be in any order except the way I put them down and if you enjoy your golf then after you've

seen some of these books you're going to enjoy it a lot more..because the interest doesn't stop after you read--it goes out on the course with you--and you become more insular more into what's happening..to your game realizing that hey even the good guys have bad days but until you see that they really do have bad days and read about them--you just think from what on T.V. is enough but it's not so get you some of these books for those days you can't be on the course and prepare your mind for the next time you are--

There's no doubt in my mind when you see the stars (Golf pros)--on the range warming up --let face it there having there egos massaged  those Pro Instructors they're  there for their own benefit because the players need to be alone and I'll guarantee you that there games would be a lot better without guys hanging around--giving out there unfree advice--the only thing a pro needs help with is usually timing--alignment, or putting speed checks--you can't rush anything in golf or your game will be effected -in some way which will bother all departments of your game mainly because you get so caught up --you get lost in trying to figure out what's messing with your game--Sergio Garcia for an example--and another one is Scott

This next guy gives you some down right good stuff as far as good advice--Tom Kite--one who always believed in Harvey Penick--and for good reasons to understand why-- read the book--I'm sort of winding down today got up at 4:30 this morning and am getting wee bit tired--so I'm thinking about calling it a day..

When putting-- you have to feel the distance--if you don't start from the first feeling that difference you'll always be left guessing--and if you don't want to add more problems to your golfing game--especially on the green for God's sake--get it together--practice until you start seeing distance by or with feel--the brain putter head, and hands--have to become one and the same--they can't all be out there alone..you see--you feel-- you putt--all this will take into consideration all irregularities of green, weather, and will over come all thoughts of whether you're doing it right or wrong--and if you miss-- you've still in the game because you're feeling through mistakes--in gauging distances--each putt is an invaluable experience..putting lessons learned--will pile on top of each other--giving experience needed each time you go out there…luck has nothing to do with it--your putting stroke--your feel for it--and your distances will become less of a problem each time…it's better than jabbing--or stutter stepping with the head of the putter...
