One of the little know, but better instructors in the game

I am a serious golfer. As of this writing, I'm currently at a 7 hdcp and have played for many years. Of my many golf books, this is the one I go back to the most. Although it is my favorite, it isn't the best organized book I've seen. It is loosely organized and isn't always easy to find what you are looking for when you go back to review. But this is the only criticism I have. This book is not for the beginner unless that beginner is very disciplined. There is a ton of great information, but it can be overwhelming. To get the most out of it, I recommend reading sections of it at a time and not getting caught up with reading it from cover to cover as fast as you can. It's a book to be savored and gone back to many times. Mr. Hebron demonstrates not just an incredibly deep understanding of the golf swing, he also has spent many years learning how people learn. His writing style seems to be scattered at times, but this is mostly because he attempts to communicate in all the predominant learning styles. Because of this, you'll inevitably find passages that you will resonate very deeply with, while others may leave you indifferent. One of my teachers calls Mike Hebron "the pros pro". Given the depth of this work, you'll see why this is true. This guy obviously spent his time and energy deepening his understanding of the game through many years of study and teaching and not marketing himself. He is not very well know except among other professionals. This book is a must for the serious player. The video/DVD by the same name is also excellent (Volume 1 is just Mike chatting by a fire. Volume 2 is where all the good stuff is.)

Your Golfing Library is incomplete without this book.

This is one of the best golf books I've ever read, I strongly recomend it to all students of the game. Each of the three sections of the book (Golf Mind, Golf Body, Golf Swing) are superbly written, there are facts and information here which would help the average golfer immediately. Whilst for the more experienced golfer there is everything you need to know, his research and knowledge is outstanding, he leaves nothing out. Also for the real golfing enthusiast you shouldn't miss his notes on the "The Golfing Machine" the 1969 book by Homer Kelly. All I can say is that my students benefit from each golf lesson that I give, thanks to Mike Hebron.

You don't have a Golf Library with out this!

I read it, I pull it out every season and I'm wearing out the pages. This is THE reference book for any golfer who wants to be able to fix it themselves when they are in trouble on the course.
