The Absolute Best Book on the Golf Swing

I bought this book from a used book store for $4 because it was cheap. I then put it in a drawer for eight months and forgot about it. Fortunately, I recently pulled it out for a second look. I'm a seven handicap and have read numerous books on the golf swing; many written by contemporary "gurus" and high profile players, as well as most of the classics. I thought I possessed a solid understanding of the golf swing -- until I read this book. I'm now considering boxing up the others and storing them in the garage. In How to Become a Complete Golfer, Mssrs. Toski and Flick provide the most thorough and honest explanation of the golf swing I've come across. This book exposes various myths promolgated by many in the golf instruction industry. However, it is no quick simplification of the swing; it's like a golf text book. It indepthly describes the causes and effects of a proper swing. If you're willing to spend the time studying and incorporating what Toski and Flick teach, you'll gain a true understanding of the golf swing. Although the book is currently out of print, I highly recommend tracking down a copy. It will be well worth the time and expense. I can already see real improvement in my ball striking and expect to have strokes start falling off my handicap very soon.

The "Bible" for serious golfers

If I could only have one golf book, this is it. From grip to putt, you get a clear mental picture of the best techniques to get the ball in the hole. It suggests two or three images to feel the "feeling" for each technique that I found very useful on the practice range. It is my golf bible. It helped me improve 6 shots down to scratch.
