Review by R. W. Russell for Golf (101 Essential Tips)
Rating:
Beginning golfers, buy this book! (No, I’m not related to the author or publisher.) This is almost the perfect elementary golf guide. Each topic is brief and to the point, the color photos are clear and sharp, and I can’t imagine any essential element of the game that isn’t covered. My only gripe is that I was surprised at the small format (neglected to check the dimensions of the book under Amazon’s description) — it’s about the size of a small paperback novel. I guess they expect you to carry it to the driving range in your back pocket. A larger format would have helped. Aside from that, this book is a keeper.

When I decided to try and take up golf I found this book on the Internet and took a chance and purchased it. I was very pleased. This really is a nice book. Every page is illustrated in full color and is printed on 279 mm paper. It’s a quality publication. It covers every aspect of the game from equipment to instructions and pointers on driving and putting. It is a very informative book even if you decide never to play the game.

The DK 101 Essential Tips Guides are filled with beautiful full-color images and practical information. The entire subject of Golf is discussed in 101 tips. Within hours you will have absorbed the basics. This book is divided into 7 main sections:
Clothing & Equipment – Deciding on a beginner’s set, putter preferences and selecting a bag.
Understanding Basic Grips – Overlapping, Interlocking, Two-handed and a grip test.
Addressing The Ball – Taking good aim, testing your posture and weight distribution.
Swing with Success – Lots of pictures showing you a variety of swing positions. Should you be in a relaxed and ready position or twist into a spring loading position.
Control on the Course – Maintaining balance on a hill or preparing for a downhill shot.
Strengths & Weaknesses – Warmup routines and practicing. There is a section where you can take 20 balls and hit the ball to check hitting distances for each club.
Playing the Game – How to analyze the scorecard and follow golf etiquette.
An interesting book for anyone who is thinking about taking up golf. This is a quick read and you can learn all the basics in a few minutes.

This book was suggested to me by a colleague as I was starting to play golf. I found it to easy to read, follow and understand.
This is a delightful little book that contains a wealth of useful and helpful information and golfing ideas for the novice with an interest in learning some basics about the beautiful game of golf. The book is packed with ideas that succinctly explains and describes the crucial golf tips that a novice golfer would be interested in knowing.
As a novice golfer, I learnt how to avoid bad habits from the start. The numerous and excellent photographs and proven advice helped me to ensure that I make those hours on the driving range and putting green time well spent. It is straight and to the point with no unnecessary fluff and sets a good foundation for the beginner.
The book is an excellent companion for the beginner that is well worth having.
