classic instruction

I found this book very enjoyable as I am a fan of both Bobby Jones and Ben Crenshaw. It is very simple and to the point and presents all you need. The photos were excellent and instructive.Well done. Dana Altimore Texas

Great Book!

This is truly Classic Instruction. Not only does it give great basic fundamental instruction from "The Greatest" Bobby Jones but Ben Crenshaw shows the more modern swing as well. Great photos of Bobby Jones and his techniques.It's also a must have for Jones' unique lost writings finally in print for the world to see. Great for a golf book collection.

Elegant Book of An Elegant Golf Swing

Crenshaw is not only a successful pro but also he is a passionate student of golf's history. So he is the perfect one to compile this side-by-side analysis of Jones' swing.Martin Davis who edits this book found a box of over 100 photos of Jones' swing. Along with these were handwritten notes explaining the photos.So, on one page is the B & W of Jones, then parallel is the four-color swing of Crenshaw and his discussion of Jones' notes.It is masterful, elegant and a true keepsake to any serious golf historian's collection. A must!

Excellent golf instruction and gift book

This is a very fine (and unusual) book on golf instruction. Using original photos and text from the old master Bob Jones, modern master Ben Crenshaw compares his swing and golf philosophy to Jones' swing and golf philosophy. This is also a very fine gift book--handsome and not too expensive. I recommend it highly to golf enthusiasts and neophytes alike.

Good
