On Par
Author: Bill Pennington
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 054754815X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
Bill Pennington, author of the beloved and widely read “On Par” golf column for the New York Times, knows how to interpret the experts and pros for the rest of us. For years, he has traveled the globe in search of golf’s essentials—those basic principles, those elusive truths (and who are we kidding, any trick or quick fix he can pick up along the way) that will improve anyone’s game. He has consulted the world’s leading golf instructors as well as countless caddies, groundskeepers, parking lot attendants, and bartenders. He has played rounds with Tiger Woods, Annika Sorenstam, and Justin Timberlake. He has sought the advice of psychiatrists, physicists, economists, zen masters. And on a particularly bad golf outing, he has even discussed the fickleness of golf with a quite helpful raccoon. On Par captures it all: From equipment and instruction, to the rules and language of golf, to camaraderie and psychology, to the short game/long game debate, Pennington informs and entertains as he gets to the essence of this mercurial game, including golf’s holy grail, the hole in one. Part instruction, part education, part therapy, and shot through with Pennington’s trademark wit, this is a book for everyone who has ever felt the game’s distinct pull—and slice.

Book Description
More Pars Power Edition, from the best selling golf author of the Golf Survival Guide series, is dedicated to helping you get more distance and accuracy off the tee and from the fairway. Hitting the ball farther means more greens in regulation and more parsl Through this guided how-to book, you'll learn the whys, whats and hows. So, let's get to it! CHRISTINA RICCI IS LPGA CLASS A, TPI GOLF LEVEL 3, TPI POWER LEVEL 2 and TPI FITNESS LEVEL 2 CERTIFIED, CROSSFIT LEVEL 2 AND A BEST-SELLING GOLF AUTHOR. Christina took up the game in 2000 and dropped to a 5 handicap in five short years. She published her first book, A Girls On-Course Survival Guide to Golf in 2008 and never looked back. She has authored five books and 20 pocket guides, sells branded golf accessories, hosts national golf camps, and teaches locally at the beautiful Atkinson Resort & Country Club located in Atkinson New Hampshire, 45 minutes north of Boston. Shes been featured on the cover of GolfTips magazine and her popular golf tips are featured on the Golf Channel, her YouTube Channel (youtube.com/c/morepars), and online portals such as WomensGolf.com, Golfforher.com and LPGA Womens Network. This guide is your go-to for understanding, measuring and training for more distance off the tee and from the fairway. It is divided into three core sections: POWER BODY; POWER TECHNIQUE; POWER EQUIPMENT. Within each section youll first learn the whys. It is important to understand the general principles and concepts before applying them to your game. Knowledge is power. It is my opinion that golf handicaps have not changed because of this. Students do as their instructors ask or watch YouTube videos. But oftentimes, they do not truly understand the core principles of the golf swing in relation to their body, equipment and technique. In addition, I see far too many players misdiagnosing themselves, which sends them down the wrong path. Instead, lets truly educate you on the essentials of ball striking so you can see real change in your game. Youll measure your current body, equipment and technique, so you have an accurate starting point. From there, youll apply your knowledge with training. This Guide is not a replacement for your instructor. I highly recommend working with a coach or training through the MorePars.com platform. The best players in the world have swing, fitness and/or medical coaches. As recreational players, you too can train like the pros and experience significant gains off the tee and from the fairway. Are you ready for more pars and more power? Lets get to it!
