101 Mistakes All Golfers Make (and how to fix them)

Really enjoyed the book because it was so down to earth and practical. Also very common sense. I just finished the Four Fundamentals of golf. First time i have read golfing books. You came highly reccommended.

What a great read - not too dense but remained informative and interesting. Just played my first round after completing the book and can truly say I played a lot better and smarter with the tips I learned from this book. Do yourself a favor and read this book.

What I liked most was the practical approach. Yes many of the subjects are known by most of us but we all lose sight of the very simple practicality of the game.All golf instructors should require all youths to read this book

This has been my favorite golf book to date. I love the format. As a young professional with an ever growing family and a good amount of travel for work, I barely have time for golf let alone reading about golf. It is easy to reference and read. The tips are wonderful because they are concise and easy to remember. My Golf IQ was increased a lot since reading this book. The small details and information about course IQ really help reduce strokes and improve play.I am a big fan of a quick tip that is easy to remember, short but has tremendous value. I keep a short list in my phone with about 10 bullet points I reference before a round to get my mind in the game and improve the small details. This book is along those same lines and love it.John's articles and website have also been a huge help on my game. They should also be referenced and followed. He a great golfer but not a tour player so you can actually relate to his skill. His tips aren't based tour level play and blasting a drive 310 yards and a wedge to the green. He actually helps you improve your skill and knowledge of how to play the game through scrambling, course positioning, etc.

Every thing about your golf game neatly presented and summarized...very good synopsis. I'd refer to it often to keep developing my overall skill set.

If you are looking for a complex break down of the golf swing such as you find in Hogans Five Fundamentals or Homer Kelly's Golfing Machine, you won't find it here. What you will find is a book written in a style that in my opinion, reminiscent to what you will find in Penick's Little Red Book. The author Jon Sherman offers 101 short and to the point observations, suggestions and revelations about the game of golf. These concise thoughts rarely take up more than a page. You will find them to be easy to understand and to apply to your game, no matter what level of skill you play the game with. Topics outside of instruction such as games to play with your friends on the course along with which games not to play with them, add to the value of this book.I look at 101 Mistakes as a valuable addition to my extensive golf library that I will reference for years to come.

Made a lot of sense. As golfers we sometimes think we can perform the same shots we see the pros make, rude awakening, it's not happening. Reminds us to stand back and take a realistic look at the shot then do the wise thing and save yourself some strokes. We do a lot of silly things out there on the course, some of them we don't even realize how dumb we can be, a good wakeup.

What a surprise that a "how to" book about golf could actually be so practical and helpful! Not only is it easy reading and immediately applicable, it's a keeper to refer to over and over again. I'm a lady golfer with a 15 handicap and I expect the "how to fix" advice will help me shave that considerably. Recommend this small and energetic book to coaches and to him professionals as a primer on communicating to players and lesson takers.

Solid tenets to adhere to in your golf game. Advice that most will be aware of and quite possibly neglecting when they play and practice.

Nothing new to be learnt from this book

Shortish, easy to read, reminds you of things you already know but forgot.

A level headed approach to all aspects of the game. Good sound common sense!I would recommend for all amateur players.

A good reminder of the correct way to approach golf and golf practise and done in s non technical way. Very helpful for evaluating how important your golf is.
