Book Review: Address Your Game with This One
Summary: 5 Stars

Statuettes and trophies are right-handed. Weapons are for right-handers. Tools are for right-handers. Equipment is for right-handers. Throttle and stick are for right-handers. Zippers are for right-handers, and even golf courses are for right-handers, just as all the golf books are--until now. Author, Steve Anderson provides something for the banished, the Obama, the forgotten, the discounted--the left-hander!

And how refreshing it is to look at pictures of a golf swing, stance, grip, and text, and not have to transpose picture or word in my head to the opposite. "Right-handed" golf books were as confusing as asking someone, "I turn left here, yes?" only to hear the answer, "Right."

With almost eighty black-and-white pictures, Anderson shows the left-handed reader the fundamentals, the address, how to correct bad shots, club fitting, refining the short game (putting, chipping), and many more topics designed to help the left-hander improve his or her golf game on courses that are mostly rigged for right-handers. His writing is clear enough that most of the text doesn't have to be read more than once to understand or visualize what he is talking about. Mr. Anderson even provides a web address and phone number for information and lessons. (Smart).

If you are a left-handed golfer as I am, this is the only book you will need to improve your golf game, but it is a book that is not read just once. You may need to read parts over and over again until they become golfing habits. Toss out those other books with the smiling right-handed obfuscators in the pictures, for they are the true handicap of your golf.

Address your game with this one.

Summary of On the Other Hand

Left-handed golfers have been "left" out in the cold when it comes to help with their swing. There just wasn't a "swing book" readily available, and none had been written by a professional golf instructor.

Steve Anderson, the PGA's ONLY left-handed "Certified" teaching professional has come to the rescue. On the Other Hand, authored by Anderson with golf writer Paul deVere, presents golf's fundamentals in a straight forward, clear, enjoyable style -- fro the left side. An excellent choice for golfers at all levels of play. Includes over 80 action shots of Anderson and some of his students.
