(OR LOOKING LIKE YOU ARE)

Book Cover & Preview Text
That BIG NUMBER would be about a 9. Now you better get some pars because that par
4 hole just cost you the same as getting 4 double
bogies.
You will notice with these twelve
prescriptive items that the fun will be breaking 100. The fun will not come in the form of hitting
that once-in-a-lifetime shot or booming a huge drive down the center of the
fairway, if it takes you eight drives to get that one big drive. “Oh dear,” some of you are thinking, “I don’t
like this already.” Well, just take your
medicine no matter how bad it tastes and you will feel better at the end of the
round.
Here is the prescription for
breaking 100.
- NEVER USE A DRIVER IF YOU CONSISTENTLY CAN HIT
ANOTHER CLUB FARTHER
Naturally, we all have a desire
to hit our drives as far as we can; however, if you struggle hitting your
driver, the best place to hit it is on the driving range. If you are trying to break that 100 barrier
and you miss-hit your driver 10 of the 14 holes that are not par 3’s, you lose
a lot of strokes. A 250-yard drive down
the middle is a nice way to start a hole, but if you only do it once or twice
and most of the time you end up out of bounds, in the trees, in a hazard or
worse yet you cannot find the ball, you may save one stroke on each of the good
drives and lose 20 or more strokes on all the bad drives during the round.
Let me explain what makes a good
drive. A good drive has four
components. First of all, you must be
able to find your ball.

About the Book
Every golfer wants to score under
100; however, less than 20% are able to play that well. A huge amount of the 80% over 100 could break
that 100 barrier if they would make the right decisions while they are playing the
game. This book is one of the few golf
books that doesn’t try to improve the skill level of the golfer, but rather
improves his game with the skill that he has.
The book is also for the golfer who is just getting started with the
game. Even though new golfers are a long
ways from being able to break 100, they can still look like they belong, on the
golf course by getting to know the proper etiquette and the proper
terminology. This book will do that,
plus give them a knowledge about the types of games
that are commonly played and will give a good understanding of the rules of
golf. Even people who do not intend to
play golf but enjoy watching it on television should read this book to get a
better understanding of the game so watching tournaments will be more
enjoyable.
