Feel of Simple Golf: Boomer Five Fundamentals for Drive, Chip & Putt | CREATESPACE

A modern take on a classic swing

Today’s golfing instruction often bombards players with endless swing mechanics. Experience the Feel of Simple Golf reframes this approach by leaning on Percy Boomer’s integrative mindset and translating it into a practical, five fundamentals model. The result is a lower body powered motion used for drive, chip, and putt with a cohesive feel across shots.

From a distance the room feels calm, with the swing flowing in one fluid rhythm, the body unwinding in a controlled sequence, the footwork delivering balance and tempo. The approach replaces scattered rules with a unified framework that you can feel in the stance, weight transfer, and release.

Five fundamentals, one cohesive movement

• Feel over fixation on complex mechanics
• Integrated cues that span the full swing spectrum
• Consistent balance and lower body power
• Seamless transition from driving through the short game
• Clear reference points you can practice and repeat

These fundamentals are discussed as possibilities, not guarantees, with practical cues you can apply on the range or course. The language stays focused on observable cues and tangible practice tasks.

Three parts to build confidence and skill

Part I equips you with a four hour lesson centered on learning the feel of the swing. Part II dives into the five fundamentals with practical drills and examples. Part III functions as a ready reference manual covering the short game including putting, and a seven step self guided troubleshooting process to diagnose a faulty swing.

Who benefits

Whether you are a beginner seeking a clear map, an intermediate player refining your consistency, or an instructor guiding others, this book provides a framework you can adapt. It also serves as an excellent follow up to classic insights from Boomer and other greats.

Practical, sensory value

Readers can imagine the feel of a well timed stride into the shot, the quiet rhythm of the body, and the smooth finish after impact. Real life practice routines help connect the ideas to shots you face on the course.

Why it matters
