How To Enjoy Golf Without Killing Your Back

The golf swing, lower back, and injury are common phrases in the world golf. It is understood the golf swing places great amounts of stress on the lower back. This is simply a result of the mechanics of the golf swing itself.

5 Stars Great book
This item arrived quickly and in good condition. The exercises in this book would improve play for more golfers than most if not all ‘how to’ books on the market. Great book!

5 Stars Golf Specific Workout Circuit
We’ve learned that our bodies after awhile get used to same exercises and so diminishing returns creep in. This golf specific trainer has developed a circuit oriented training schedule specifically targeted for golf muscles and conditioning them.

One needs to invest in some equipment or have it available at workout facility, i.e. physioball, medicine ball, resistance bands, soccer ball, dumbbells, etc. The investment for these is not large, but is necessary to do most of these. Also, some of the exercises look to an appartus found in gym settings where pully resistance machines are available.

The cycle of eleven days has some rest in it, and room for golf and cardiovascular work which is nice. The rotation has increasing rep schedules and stepped up exercises on many of the stretches.

There is also a great pre-round stretch routine, as well as some recommened range drills. Good photo illustrations and instructions add greatly to the usability.

For most all golfers this is great workout routine, and results will follow after your first eleven day cycle, and multiply after continuous recycling.

5 Stars Great help for beginners
I am a beginner “older” golfer and didn’t feel in very good shape for golfing. The muscles used for the golf swing are very different than what we usually use. This book was excellent for showing me stretches to get my body in shape. What I especially like about it is that it also gives really good golf tips as well as staying in shape tips. I highly recommend it for anyone just starting out golfing or experienced golfers as well.

4 Stars Helpful to me…
As an ACE-certified personal trainer who has no knowledge of golf with a client interested in improving their golf game, this book was very helpful to me. It not only showed me what steps a golfer needs to make for set-up, swing, etc., it also showed me exercises to specifically help in each step. The book shows how to perform these sports-specific exercises and tells me why my client needs to do them.

5 Stars An Essential Golf Book
I only wish I’d connected with a golf instructor with Ernest Jones’ teaching method when I first learned to golf 35 years ago. This classic book is more important and spot-on than ever, with his simple and fundamental ideas about swinging the clubhead on an arc.

So much modern golf instruction is cluttered with hundreds of different and confusing details about the endless positions in a golf swing. These positions might be important to pinpointing a specific problem in a swing, but Jones understood that the individual golfer needs to get most of these details out of his mind when he makes his swing and instead focus on the important action of making a properly-arced swing.

In reading other reviews, it sounds like there are some problems with the naming of this book and a conflict with other editions, but this is still a very valuable and fundamental treatise about golf instruction. Golf is a very difficult sport to play well, but if you apply yourself to Jones’ principles, you will enjoy yourself much more on the course by de-cluttering your head from the minutia of details and ideas you’ll find on the instructional pages of Golf or Golf Digest.

5 Stars Stick to the fundamentals to play better golf
This is a book about the fundamentals and offered a whole new dimension to my thinking about the swing. I think this book is every bit as relevent as it was when written. Perhaps it becomes even more so as the golfer is inundated with the mechanics driven and fault detection methods offered by the golf publishing industry in this new century.

1 Star A classic golf instruction book
Ernest Jones was a famous instructor whose most famous theory was Swing the Clubhead. There have been many pictures over the years of Jones swinging a penknife attached to a handkerchief, sometimes alone, sometimes while griping a golf club.

But reading the book was a bit of a disappointment. Its a very quick read and it seems full of Jones’ explaining why swinging the clubhead is so important. But outside of the familary drawings of him swinging the penknife there isn’t much instruction on how to swing the clubhead. Or how to get this feeling of swinging.

5 Stars Review of Ernest Jones’ “Swing The CLubhead”
Simple, straightforward approach to the golf swing. No frills, no mind cluttering concepts, rules, etc.

The focus is on relaxation throughout the golf swing. No mechanics to clutter up the mind and tighten up the body!!!

1 Star Not the Original; Neither has it much to say
I echo the reviews posted earlier: This is NOT the original book with the title. Amazon should state so as NOT to mislead the readers. I bought it in a hurry and did not do my home work. Jeff Bezos & Co, are you listening?

The publisher has a disclaimer but it is all in the fine prints as we are accustomed to nowadays. Quote,

Publisher’s Note: This book is not “Swing the Clubhead and Cut Your Golf Score,” by Ernest Jones and David Eisenberg, Copyright 1952. It is a revised and retitled version of an earlier Ernest Jones’ work titled, “Swinging Into Golf.” It is not our intent to devalue the collector editions of earlier Jones’ books, but to make his teachings available for all golfers at a reasonable price.

Unquote. My bad. Buyers beware.

To sum it up after breezing through the book: play with feel. If you still feel the urge to read it because the ORIGINAL title is in the hostage of book collectors as per this publisher’s rationale, I can conceive worse ways of losing that $12.

Tips On keeping the Club on The swing Plane?

Does anyone have any decent tips on how to keep my golf clubs on the straight swing plane on my backswing/downswing? My manager noticed I moved my hands around a little bit when I swing. Try this drill: 1. Put a driver headcover under your right armpit and compress it with the right arm 2. Do a normal upswing 3. Keep the HC under the right armpit and don’t let it drop 4. Perform the downswing and try to hit the ball and keep the HC compressed 5. During the takeaway the HC should fall just
