Editorial Reviews:

You can shoot in the 70's!

Ben Hogan has long believed that any golfer with average coordination can learn to break 80 if he applies himself intelligently -- and here, with Herbert Warren Wind, and artist Anthony Ravielli, he tells you, step by step, just how to go about it.

The greatest golfer of our generation has distilled his experience as teacher, player, and observer of golf into a series of richly illustrated "visual instructions" that not only can improve your game and lower your score, but also can help you get even more fun out of what many people already think is the most enjoyable game in the world.

Each chapter, each tested "fundamental" is explained and demonstrated with amazing detail and clarity. It's as though the master himself were right there at your elbow, giving you a personal lesson with the same thought and care that has gone into his lifetime of golf.

The Modern Fundamentals of Golf is no instant and easy shortcut. There is none. But with Ben Hogan as your pro, you can master these basic movements very quickly. And then you can go on to develop a correct, powerful swing that will repeat. As Ben Hogan says, it's only then that you'll "discover golf for the first time."

Summary: Timeless lessons
Comment: I picked this up to give my golf game a little boost and it didn't disappoint. Hogan simplifies many of the most essential elements of golf, including grip, stance, ball position, backswing, downswing, etc. All this info comes in a tight package and makes an excellent reference guide.

Summary: a must for every golfer
Comment: this book is an absolute must have for anyone that is inspired to play the great game of golf. practicing and applying these fundamentals will improve your game - no question about it. superbly written and illustrated... it is the definitive golf "how to" instructional guide. i don't care how long you've been playing or at what caliber. if you've got a case of the shanks or are stuck on some bad habits, have a brush up with the book, and you'll be swimming.

Summary: Good Learning Tool But Dangerous In The Wrong Hands
Comment: Ben Hogan's Five Lessons should be a must in every golfer's library. However, I believe this book can be dangerous in the wrong hands. Hogan appears to have been ahead of his time on some issues discussed in Five Lessons so there is a lot of good information to take away from this book. However, not everything he discusses is appropriate for every player. It takes a discerning eye to figure out what would be beneficial to an individual player and what would be detrimental.

The book is an easily read book with very good illustrations and there are five different main lessons which I have listed below...

* The Grip
* The Stance & Posture
* The First Part of the Swing
* The Second Part of the Swing
* Summary & Review

While I highly recommend this book and its lessons I can't overemphasize the benefit of a) getting fitted for your clubs by a qualified person and b) actual one on one instruction from a professional.

Summary: Five Lessons: Modern Fundamentals of Golf
Comment: This book is a classic golf instruction text -- without a doubt the best such book. I read this book at least once per year just to fine tune my golf swing -- or anytime the golf demons try to attack my swing. I have owned this book for many years, and in a recent move my old copy got lost, hence, the need to buy a new one. If you are a really serious golfer, this book should be a permanant part of your golf instruction library; if you're a beginner, it is a must for developing a sound golf swing. Tiger may be the best to ever play the game, but Hogan had the swing that amateurs should try to emulate.
