Mr. SyberVision--Mr. Tempo and Mr. 59

Al Geiberger is almost as famous for being the SyberVision model as he is for shooting a 59. This book is a wonderful summary of the swing and provides keys to playing better. It is should even be better as a companion to the SyberVision video that stars Geiberger. The video sold over 1 million copies in the 1980's and became the rage of golf all over the world. I just purchased the re-release of the video on DVD from SyberVision at www.sybervision.com. Hopefully, it and the book will work for me as well as it has reportedly done for others.

Great for high handicappers

I've been trying to break 100 consistently for three years. I've taken lessons and read other books. This book added a new dimension to my game. Thanks to what I read I will break 100 more often.

A book as simple as a good swing

Most of my searching for golf help is looking for ways to focus on tempo and timing. This book was very helpful in its isolation of just the few keys that Gieberger uses in his swing. His swing keys on the left arm and leg swing. Gieberger must be a man of few words. The book doesn't fill up with tips unrelated to the subject of tempo. He has a cool video too, just his swinging set to music - no words at all. His swing is old-school, a lot like Nicklaus'with the raised left heel. It's a good book!

Great technique and teaching never gets old

I read this book almost cover to cover in one evening. Mr. Geibergers' technique is simple, easy to understand and to copy. I have learn more by reading this book than any other book I read. I strongly believe that this book is a must to any golfer looking to improve his swing.
