This classic instruction book's singular theory - swinging the clubhead - was developed by Jones before the First World War. The original inspiration is nearly 100 years old and , yet when golfers like Vijay Singh and Ernie Els are playing well, they are doing what Jones commanded: swinging the clubhead. When Tiger swings the clubhead he plays well; when he tries to overpower the ball, he sprays it. Learning how to swing the clubhead is Jones's mantra. He teaches that and only that. If you learn to swing the clubhead, he says, you do not need to worry about anything else, your shoulders, your hips, your turn, nothing else. Everything else will follow naturally from the swinging motion. Jones wanted to be a professional golfer, but lost his leg during WWI. He played exceptionally well, scoring in the 70s on one leg, but not well enough to compete. He turned to teaching and reinforced his philosophy through three books. This edition has a Foreword by Bernard Darwin. "Swinging into Golf" is a historical and classic instruction book, that is still relevant today.
