THIS BOOK IS A MUST! November 5, 2008
K. BRACKEN (ENGLAND)
I would agree that this book is not for a beginner. I recently saw a pro teach the one plane swing, his pupil was swinging with great effect. Thus, I also booked a lesson. My slice had gone!!! However, I continued to pick up tips from books & videos for further improvement. This left me more confused. With this book, no more - I now know what to work on & what to leave well alone. I would recommend a one plane lesson with a pro, as this will not only reinforce, but make the book easier to understand.
As with others, my critisism is that it lacks some clarity i.e pictures.

A struggling 10 handicapper whose swing changes from 1 day to the next....not any more....thankyou Jim Hardy I've seen the light and it was you who showed me the way
Lessons instruction books tips from friends I now realise get you in a mish mash of trying to combine elements of the 1 and 2 plane swing
Jim Hardy explains clearly the fundamentals of each swing there's nothing new for the experienced golfer but the 'secret' is that you recognise which fundamentals apply to each swing Disregard those that do not apply to the swing you have adopted it's as simple as that
And by halving the myriad of swing thoughts one can concentrate more easily on the correct thoughts for the adopted swing!
Thanks Jim and you should increase the price of the book...it's a steal as far as I'm concerned
Should be on every golfer's bookshelf October 28, 2006

The most amazing thing about golf is that the harder you try to get better the more confused and erratic you become.
Although this book suffers from a paucity of pictures and a rather text-heavy format, if you are a technically-minded 'student of the swing'then you will wish you read this book years ago.
I have numerous books, DVDs and subscriptions to magazines and what strikes you is how much contradictory information is out there in so-called 'instruction bibles'. With his break down of the one and two-plane swings, Hardy shows the reader why he cannot produce consistant results - because he has elements of both swings in his game.
This book is not for the absolute beginner, but for those who thought they understood the golf swing, but did not understand why they could not apply what they know, this is GOLD DUST!
Goldmine of Swing info. September 28, 2006
A. D. Thornton (UK)
The information in this book has set me on the path of a rapidly declining handicap. (two shots last month, broke 80 for the first time)
If you want to sort out all the contradictions in swing teaching read this book and use the authours website forums. Jim Hardy has resurrected the one plane swing as used by Hogan and Snead and clarified the Montyesque two plane swing.
Why not 5 stars? The writing could be a little clearer and more pictures would help. The information is 6 stars though.
Excellent book pictures could be better August 30, 2006

Should also buy his friend Hank Haneys book. They fit quite well together. This is a very good golf book. Where it could be better is the photos of Jim Hardy swinging the club. He says that Ernie and Michele Wie are pure one plane swingers and comparing them to his stooped over posture does not seem like a match. What I would like to see applied in the future is a re-analysis of Dr Ralph Manns and Fred Griffins "PRO" in their excellent book ,"Swing like a pro" using the one plane/two plane swing models introduced in this book to give an even better road map on how to swing the golf club. Jim Hardys one plane swing seems more Moe Norman than Michelle Wie. No bad thing when driving the golf ball but what about the short game ? The one plane swing he tells us is an updated version of the swing first described by Ben Hogan in his book.
