Suitable for some people, not others. August 6, 2008 Hugh (Ireland) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I expected this to be a fairly "out of the box" book on improving putting. And it was. However, a lot of the drills, exercises, tests are a little complex and time consuming. You would literally have to bring the book out with you and have you, and possibly a friend, as some of the drills involves two people, going through the drill on the putting green. If other people are using the green, then it may not be ideal (and they may wonder what you are up to). I think its a bit advanced if you - like 80% of the golfing world - are an average player looking for some way to shave a few strokes off your card. Its time consuming and it would need to be followed fairly closely in order to reap the benefits. Not for me, alas.
There are gems - but one has to dig July 19, 2008 revbd (Ireland) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
On starting this book my initial impression was not favourable. It is New Age in feel and is over-earnest in both style and content. I almost gave up on it but instead persevered and am glad I did. The book does have content of real, and practical, value and which, for example, really does enable one to swing a putter (or other golf club) with noticeably more freedom. A comparison with analogous books may be helpful. Bob Rotella's various books (which, though variable in quality, are really good - especially 'Putting Out of Your Mind') also emphasise the importance of freedom but, in content and style, are very different from Shoemaker. Gallwey's 'Inner Game...' and Shoemaker are quite similar in underlying approach but, in my opinion, Shoemaker's is the more useful in containing actionable exercises that develop freedom of golf stroke execution.
