The Women's Guide to Consistent Golf: Learn How to Improve and Enjoy Your Golf Game

By Kellie Stenzel

Book Overview

Are you constantly searching for that ever-elusive consistent game of golf? You may know how to hit the shots, but do you know how to play the game of golf? Do you play a round of golf, feeling that you have played pretty well and find that you are continually frustrated that your score has not decreased as you would have hoped? Learning the art of scoring on the golf course is part of the natural progression of learning the game of golf. To this point you have learned "how" and now you have to take accountability for the more important question "how many?". The book includes methods to increase consistency through practice techniques and on course strategies. It gives you the questions you need to ask yourself to make the right decisions on the course. It teaches you how to make your practice time productive and shows you more advanced shot making options that are available to you now as you are a more experienced player. Once you learn each particular skill: putting, chipping, pitching, sand and full swing, you will then need to learn to make them work under the pressure on the course when each shot counts. Apply the techniques you will learn over time and you will see your scores and your handicap drop. Learn what the lower handicapped players are doing and thinking. Learn to choose the highest percentage shot in different situations, along with a short game progression to help you to decide whether to putt, chip or pitch. Most golf instructionals - especially those for women - deal with the absolute beginner. This program is unique in that it helps golfers with the next stage of their game, thereby enhancing their enjoyment on the course.

Customer Reviews

Great tips

Very good book with excellent easily understood practical tips you can use. I've already improved my game dramatically just following some of her practice suggestions. She also explains the "why" (choosing the right club, practice techniques) that allow me to better understand.

The Women's Guide to Consistent Golf

An "above excellent" book. I have taken at least 6 strokes off my game in just a few weeks. This is a must have book for all golfers!

A book that keeps on giving

I find I will be able to use this book to help me with my golf games when it goes south on me. I bought it because I needed help on my putting. This book has a chapter to on how to stop three putting. It has helped a lot and I know I will use it for many other areas of my game. It is well written and has many photographs of proper stance, grip and swings. The putting section was a big help. It is always wise to keep your game in shape as playing golf will keep you mentally alert, exercised and playing the game for the rest of your life.

Consistent golf for anyone!

My average score has dropped 10 strokes, since using the practice tips in this book. The author talks about setting up "quality goals" for your practice sessions, and then outlines easy drills for each part of your game. Some of the drills I can do in my backyard! The best part about this book is that it keeps things simple, so you can apply what you learn right away. I'd recommend it for men as well as women.

Title missleading,

I have been playing golf for five years with limited sucess. I picked up this book at the libaray and after the first chapter shot the best round I ever have. The book is very clear and as I am 69 years old, the information on fairway woods aplies to me. An excellent book for any golfer
