On Learning Golf is one of the foundations of modern golf instruction. In this work can be found the basic ideas taught by thousands of golf instructors, as well as the basics of golf psychology, conveyed through Boomer s unique blend of humour and anecdote. Percy Boomer taught his students to control the swing by feel, rather than by thought. He urged his students to learn a proper swing (and the same swing can be used for every shot) through intuition rather than by trying to understand the mechanics of a shot. For your swing use the mental image of turning within a barrel . Focus on making a good swing and not on the outcome of the shot. Practice without a hole to learn the feel. Generations of golfers, instructors and writers have learned from Boomer s methods and passed them onto tens of thousands more but now the modern golfer can go back to the source and learn directly from Percy Boomer.
It is in no way Percy Boomers fault that I have not yet discovered the elusive secret, and it has to be as a disciple of the game and not as a low-handicap player that I recommend On Learning Golf, in the hope that it will help to reduce its readers scores and discourage their opponents. --The Duke of Windsor
This classic instructional guide... In truth, this book is a blessed relief from much of modern-day instruction and its often-unhealthy and confusing reliance on gimmickry and video. --Scotland on Sunday
The book that professionals turn to and then recommend to their students... Percy Boomer... believed in teaching by feel rather than thought and generations have learnt from his expertise. --Golf Links
