Any Good Golf Books to Read?

[ColoradoSteve]

Looking to read some good golf books. Anybody finishing reading anything recently that you would recommend? Earlier this month I finished "They Call Me Super Mex". Great book about Trevino. I'm currently reading "The 7 Laws of the Golf Swing" by Nick Bradley. I like it as its based on science.

 

I'm looking for some instructional as well as other golf related topics that enhance knowledge or wonder. As we get deeper into the winter months, a good golf book is what I need to "place myself on the course" : )

 

Thanks in advance

Thank you for the input! My local library has all those titles. I did read and enjoy The Big Miss.

"Essentials of the Swing" by Hank Haney - like him or not, informercials aside, this book changed my ability to play golf. Highly recommended.

 

"The Greatest Game Ever Played" and "The Match" by Mark Frost

The only book you'll ever need to read is "Golf is Not a Game of Perfect" by Dr. Bob Rotella

Others might disagree but I truly enjoyed "Out Of The Rough" by Steve Williams.

 

Lots of interesting insight into several current and former tour pros. Well written in my humble and very enjoyable.

David Owen's book, My Usual Game, is a little long in the tooth but it's a fun read.
