Product Description

This fully updated edition of the classic Eight-Step Swing reveals the best advice from the top golf school in America, offering a detailed explanation of the true fundamentals of the golf swing. PGA Master Instructor Jim McLean, who has coached many of the game's greatest professionals, has incorporated his latest research into the art and science of the golf swing, breaking it down into a new building block approach.

In this indispensable instructional manual, McLean presents the innovative swing system that has helped championship winners like Tom Kite, Alexis Thompson, Cristie Kerr, and Bernhard Langer elevate their game. With characteristic clarity and expertise, McLean breaks down the swing action into the eight key checkpoint positions that will build a grooved, repeatable, and mechanically sound swing. Helpful practice tips, drills, and mental exercises supplemented with technically accurate photographs and more than 50 new illustrations keep you on track. McLean also presents brilliant strategies and advice for the long game, the short game, the mental game, and overall game management to boost your performance to the next level no matter how long you've been playing.

This book is a must read for any serious golfer. This is the third edition and is extremely thorough and easy to follow. The illustrations are clear and very helpful. This book provides a clear understanding of what the golfer is supposed to be doing at each step of the swing. I highly reccomend this book to anyone.

This book taught me so much about what is going on in the golf swing. It is detailed and comprehensive, but also presented in a way that is easy to understand and translate to your golf swing. Every golfer should own this book.


5 out of 5 stars Best Golf Book Ever   May 15, 2009
Chad M. Middaugh (Toledo, OH)
I love reading Jim McLean's books. I was very excited to hear the Third Edition of The Eight Step Swing was coming out. In the book, He stresses the fundamentals, the true fundamentals that all the best players do, and makes them easy to understand for players of all abilities. My favorite part of McLean's book, The Eight Step Swing, is that he gives every player room for individual freedom in their swing and points out things you absolutely must not do which he calls "Death Moves." This book has tremendously helped my golf game! A++!


5 out of 5 stars Better than ever   May 16, 2009

Jim McLean breaks down the golf swing in a way that is very easy to picture (if you are a visual learner)and therefore is easy to understand. Feels like he is talking to you in person! Frankly, this is all you need to know about the golf swing.

Jim knows the golf swing better than anyone in the golf world. He knows how to break it down into simple terms and ways that the average golfer can relate to. I would recommend this book to beginners, amateurs and professionals. Anyone who plays golf can benefit from this amazing book!
