100 Classic Golf Tips combines over 50 years of the world's greatest teaching pros, golfing legends, today's most notable golf instructors, and the life-time works of Anthony Ravielli, distilled into a charming package. It includes time-honored tips useful to every golfer such as how to grip the club to square clubface for an ideal impact position, allowing the wrist to hinge properly; how the downswing of the club is similar to a baseball swing as it relates to weight shift; and how working on the finish of the golf swing can help identify any balancing problems. 100 Classic Golf Tips features artwork from the archives of Anthony Ravielli, who illustrated golf technique for Golf Digest and Sports Illustrated for 40 years, as well as the seminal Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf by Ben Hogan. Comments from top golf pros annotate and amplify the illustrations. Contributors include such renowned golfers and instructors as Butch Harmon and Hank Haney, instructors to Tiger Woods; Rick Smith, instructor to Phil Mickelson; David Leadbetter, instructor to Annika Sorenstam and Michelle Wie; and Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, and Tom Watson.

An inspirational guide to getting the best effects from using color in interior decoration. Advice for all golfers in a style and manner that relies on time-tested teaching principles and knowledge. For improving the all-around game of every level of golfer—in which excellent shotmaking technique takes precedence over big swings and the latest equipment fads—there is no better teacher than Ravielli, who worked closely with such pros as Tom Watson, Bobby Jones, Sam Sneed, and Ben Hogan to offer the most lucid principles and easily explained demonstrations. In this intriguing book, Christopher Obetz has drawn the best illustrations from the complete archive of Ravielli’s work to best illustrate grips, swings, stances, special and trouble shots, and intentional slices and hooks that can be used for a lifetime of successful golf. Beautiful to observe, anatomically perfect, enduring in style and approach, Ravielli’s drawings will reward every golfer with perhaps the clearest and most matter-of-fact understanding of the principles of the golfing body at work. Amplifying the lessons in each case are comments by some of today’s leading professional players and teachers. A refreshingly welcome contribution to today’s golf instruction library and a magnificent contribution to golf history, this book is destined to become a classic.
