Synopsis

On Learning Golf is one of the foundations of modern golf instruction. In this work can be found the basic ideas taught by thousands of golf instructors, as well as the basics of golf psychology, conveyed through Boomer s unique blend of humour and anecdote. Percy Boomer taught his students to control the swing by feel, rather than by thought. He urged his students to learn a proper swing (and the same swing can be used for every shot) through intuition rather than by trying to understand the mechanics of a shot. For your swing use the mental image of turning within a barrel . Focus on making a good swing and not on the outcome of the shot. Practice without a hole to learn the feel. Generations of golfers, instructors and writers have learned from Boomer s methods and passed them onto tens of thousands more but now the modern golfer can go back to the source and learn directly from Percy Boomer.
