Synopsis

For most golfers, shooting a score below 90 for 18 holes represents a watershed--a ticket to respectability no matter where they play or with whom they are paired.

How to Break 90 offers a new approach to shooting sub-90 scores that stresses tactics rather than a swing overhaul. It dives right into the solutions that help a player break the 90-barrier, such as thinking about each hole as a series of points along a strategic map, learning how to shape shots to fit different situations, and, finally, putting--the part of your game that will push you over the top.

The heart of breaking 90 lies in thinking ability, not swinging aptitude. This book will make you a smarter striker of the ball from tee to green.

Written in an engaging, friendly style, How to Break 90 offers the same proven, practical advice the authors have taught to thousands of middle to high handicappers at the Academy of Golf at PGA National, one of the world's finest golf teaching facilities. It will help everyone who wants to break go every time they tee it up.
