"After 40 years of teaching and competing, I have outlined an approach to golf, specifically, the short game, that I would call "structured feel". The best players in the world don't accelerate violently into impact -- they employ symmetrical, even-paced, graceful swings, whether using a putter or a driver. Measured back-swings and tension-free "gravity" forward swings will help you produce consistent, high quality, efficient putts, chips, pitches, bunker shots and full swings. Give Symmetrical Golf a try and watch your scores go down faster than you ever imagined." - from the rear outer cover. "I only wish I would have met Jerry earlier. He is a true professional and master of the short game." - President Donald Trump. "Jerry's insights and knowledge of the short game were invaluable in helping me qualify for my first U.S. Open in 2013. Simple and repeatable. Thank you Jerry ." - John Nieporte, Head Professional Trump International Golf Club. "I've never known a PGA Professional to have such a detailed analysis and the ability to communicate his diagnosis to another student or player, making for permanence of improvement. And, to compete in a pairing with Jerry Tucker is to watch the game played with such diligence and ease that you cannot help but become a better competitor through osmosis." - Peter Oakley, 2004 Senior British Open Champion. "Jerry's short game coaching helped shape me into the professional I am today. His creative mindset and skills tests will help you achieve top level play. He really is one of the best!" - Vicky Hurst, LPGA Tour player. "As an instructor, player and student of the game, Jerry relates his knowledge and experiences to all levels of players who enjoy golf." - Michael Tucker, Head Professional, Bellerive Country Club. "Trust me; you do not want to go through all the testing and experimentation that Jerry Tucker did to learn what he has learned about playing golf at the highest levels. Just get this book! The fact that he is an entertaining story teller will make it fun to read and learn." - John Hayes, PGA Golf Teacher, Tampa, Florida.
