The Full Golf Swing: Sequence of Power

Just a few of the concepts you'll discover are:

-- Learn how the weight shift you've been taught is not how the best players in the game shift their weight.

-- Discover a more practical understanding of the vital swing concept known as "connection."

-- Come to realize the relationship between the left instep, left hip, and left soulder.

-- Identify and eliminate self-imposed "swing blocks" that have been holding you back.

-- For the first time, truly understand how the lower body contributes to how power is generated.

-- Understand why the sequence to your downswing must have a properly timed "Pulse" like quality.

-- Today's great players are not utilizing "new" ways to swing the club, but they have adopted time-tested concepts that should be part of your game.

-- In this book, you'll learn how to develop a "whole" swing understanding that will allow you to customize your swing based on sound fundamentals rather than continually struggle to fit your swing into the constraints of a trendy "method."

Picture This - Not, 2008-01-23
If you can easily translate long descriptions into crisp clear visualizations, then this book is for you. But if you'd rather a picture be worth a thousand words, look somewhere else. It gets tedious trying to decipher exactly what the author is describing in words. How could a few more photos or graphics hurt? Mr. Murphy admits that to become a better golfer each one of us must have clear pictures of certain parts of the golf swing, but he doesn't give us the requisite visual assistance. I have struggled with this work, trying to picture what should be done, but finally gave up. I never had a breakthrough moment.

Excellent book, 2007-12-16
This is a wonderful golf book! It is unlike any other golf book that I have read: it provides an intellectually stimulating, detailed examination of the modern golf swing in simple, easy-to-understand language. It is a comprehensive book that does not leave any aspect of the golf swing unexamined.

This book is not all theory, though. Jimmy Murphy writes the kind of explanations of the golf swing that can produce results for the reader in a short period of time. He offers various drills to help the reader cement the proper golf techniques. I have found that these drills have helped me get a better sense of the way my body is supposed to move when swinging the club. The results are incredible--I have a smoother motion and am able to produce more power without sacrificing accuracy.

I would recommend this book to any serious golfer looking for an enjoyable read that will produce results.

Highly recommended for the serious golfer, 2007-12-05
I found this to be an outstanding book on golf instruction. The author has studied many of the game's greatest and shares what he's found to be the essential qualities common to a sound golf swing. He covers all aspects of the swing and offers many valuable insights into generating more power to help you get more distance from each shot. He offers numerous practical tips and helpful drills. His concepts are easy to understand and visualize. This is a very well written and readable book.

I finally got it!, 2007-12-01
The golf swing has always been a compendium of things you do but not really connected in my mind. No longer. I have just finished a second reading of The Full Golf Swing. It is a great book that promotes understanding the various aspects of the swing in total, not looking just at a specific tip or fix. The lack of illustrations encourages the reader to develop their own mental image of the fluidity of a well connected swing that features a sequence of principles. Using this book as a basis, future actual lessons should be more meaningful. The book is clearly written, enough information to make you think but not delving into theoretical minutia.

A GREAT BOOK TO GAIN ACCURATE DISTANCE!, 2007-11-28
A GREAT BOOK TO GAIN ACCURATE DISTANCE!

Jimmy Murphy's book about the source of power in golf is a must to get more distance without sacrificing accuracy. I am 72 years old and was hitting my drives about 200 yards. I would occasionally hit one 225 or even 240 yards, and knew instinctively I had really gotten my whole body into the swing. But alas, I did not know what I had done and could not repeat it except infrequently and by chance. Thanks to Jimmy's book I now know how to do it. I am getting more distance from all my clubs, and because I know why - the sequence of power - I am able to repeat the shots at least more frequently. Thanks Jimmy! You have a great understanding of the required motions and have very clearly communicated the secrets of the full swing.
