Every time he found something about the swing, stance or the mental approach that proved to be consistently successful, Harvey Penick made notes in his notebook. He gathered notes for 60 years and let no one read them, except his son Tinsley, until the publishing of this book. Instruction is written in small, easy to pick up and read sections and is easily tracked in the table of contents. The book is written in an easy and personal style that warms your heart and makes you love the author early on in the text. Harvey Penick began his golfing career as a caddie in 1913 at the Austin Texas Country Club. He later became an instructor and has instructed many well known pros like, Tom Kite, Jack Nicklaus, Ben Crenshaw, Mickey Wright and Kathy Whitworth. Bud Shrake is a former newspaper columnist, Sports Illustrated writer and novelist. Length: 175 pages.
