How to Play Your Best Golf All the Time - Classics of Golf

Timeless golf instruction for steady improvement

Tommy Armour’s classic How to Play Your Best Golf All the Time compiles enduring guidance that can help you think through your game as you practice and on the course. It emphasizes the idea that your best golf is a path you can learn and repeat, rather than a single moment of brilliance.

The book walks through every step of a swing and game plan, from setup to finishing your shot. It covers how your clubs can help you shape each shot, the grip that keeps your swing connected, and the mental and physical cues that prepare you to swing with confidence.

• Finding and practicing your best golf approach
• How to get ready to swing with purpose and rhythm

The edition is enhanced by more than four dozen two-color illustrations that visually reinforce key ideas. These drawings offer quick, memorable visuals for each concept—whether you’re examining a grip, practicing a waggle, or framing a putt on the practice green.

• Illustrations: more than four dozen two-color drawings clarify concepts
