Product Description
The legendary golf instructional, available again. This is, along with Harvey Penick's Little Red Book, THE book Golf professionals turn to.
"Thirty years ago I was recommending Joe Dante's book The Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf as a must read for aspiring PGA professionals. What Dante said in '62 has influenced many of the game's finest teachers. Dante was a visionary."--Gary Wiren, author of New Golf Mind
When published, The Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf radically changed the way many players thought about the golf swing. Dante's system showed how simple it was to improve one's game, and at the same time gave the golfer one of the most comprehensive analyses of swing mechanics ever published. Now, thirty-three years after its original publication, Main Street is proud to reissue this classic instructional. Dante begins by sweeping out all the misconceptions of the game. "If good golf is to be learned and the poor player is to improve, a purging must take place, painful as it may be." Dante discusses a few basics of grip and stance, and then he gets to the heart of his book, the four magic moves. As he reveals each of the moves, Dante focuses on the physical checkpoints so that any golfer can make sure that his or her swing is on the right track.
The Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf is straightforward and easy to understand, yet unlike other golf books it is irreverent and audacious in its approach to mastering the game. The publication of this rediscovered classic is sure to establish Joe Dante's reputation as one of golf's greatest teachers.

From a Weekend Golfer... - Reviewed on 2008-07-26
Three years ago, I was to the point as a weekend golfer that I wasn't having any fun with the game. Not able to get off the tee effectively, atrocious approach shots, ill-fated pitch shots...the whole gamut of bad golf shots. No fun. I had decided to either take some (more) lessons from a local pro, or throw in the towel. On a whim, I did a search on Amazon for golf books, was intrigued by this title, and bought it for a fraction of the cost of lessons. I read the first magic move, took it to the range, and--with a little work, but not unlike magic--my ball was flying straighter, higher and farther than ever before. My advice: Buy it, work on the four magic moves, and have fun playing golf again. I am!
