I purchased the The Simple Golf Swing at a time when I was playing quite a lot of golf, but was struggling with my game. I was inconsistent off the tee and around the greens. To improve my swing and hence golf game I decided to have lessons, which I did from a number of professionals, with each lesson costing about $50. The lessons did give me an insight to the mechanics of a golf swing and I am sure that they have helped in someway, but I was obviously not satisfied and was still searching for ways to improve my golf game.
