Book Reviews of The Search for the Perfect Golf Club
Book Review: A must read for any golfer
Summary: 5 Stars
My story:
At age 60 I started to play golf, by the end of my second year I was on my third driver and second set of irons ("latest and greatest"), than I read Tom's book. Tom has made what could be a very boring topic enjoyable to read, very informative, and when you stop and think about it, makes so much sense.
My sister-in-law went to a local golf store to be "fitted" for clubs, they took her out to the driving range watched her hit a small bucket of balls,(no launch monitor), than sold her a man's set of irons with graphite shafts, told her they were on sale and it was the perfect fit for her. I followed Tom's advice, and searched out a qualified club fitter..(IMPORTANT word.. QUALIFIED!) had several appointments with him and over a 4 week period he made me a custom set, irons, hybrid and driver.
The outcome:
1) they improved my game
2) they cost the same as the other clubs I had purchased off the shelf
I find it very interesting that now stores claim to have custom fitting for clubs, and after all is said and done they sell you a set off the rack.
Bottom Line
If you are into golf so much that you are reading reviews about this book, than you should purchase Tom's book..
