[.ca] The Search for the Perfect Golf Club (ISBN 1587264439)

The Essential Equipment Manual for all Golfers:
For those that love golf, the search for equipment that can best complement our game, at any level, is akin to the search for the holy grail. A multi-billion dollar industry has grown around the mystique of finding the magic club(s) that will take your quest to the next level. In the midst of all the hype, techno-babble and sometimes just plain old fashioned snake oil, Tom Wishon has written the definitve "owners manual" for golf equipment. His mission is simple: to explain for the average golfer how and why golf clubs work the way they do. In a breezy but easy to read technical prose, Wishon provides a very practical and timely guidebook that debunks many myths of modern golf marketing--especially the notion that off-the-rack clubs can help ANY golfers game. The advice here is timely, and tailored to golfers of all abilities, including a special section on fitting golfers with disabilites (which we all have to some degree playing the game we love). Highly recommended, especially for aspiring clubfitters, equipment geeks and players whose passion for the game demands the best equipment available. If you read just one chapter of this book, read Chapter 12- Ten Things You Can Do For Your Equipment For Under $25, which will more than pay for itself if you implement half the advice given here.
