The Shot-Maker's Code contains the blueprint for creating any type of golf shot. It has been instinctively known by the golfing greats but hidden from the rest of us until now. The blueprint details the essential stroke elements that every golfer should know. They are the key to successful golf shot outcomes. Learning and applying the blueprint has the potential to transform any golf game. The secret of the golf shot is in how the ball is struck. The golf stroke, the forward motion of the swing, determines how the ball is struck, compressed, and controlled. The stroke defines the golf shot, not the swing. The swing is an automatic reflexive response to a properly configured stroke. Having mapped out the blueprint for shot-making, the author explains how to apply it for various shots. The book is packed with excellent images demonstrating key elements of the stroke. Ball flight profiles and launch and flight data are included to validate the process. Later in the book, the author explores the history of shot-making, looking to the insights of many golfing greats, including Vardon, Jones, Hogan, Nicklaus, Trevino, and Woods. The modern swing and stroke pioneered by the great Ben Hogan are described in detail. Mr. Hogan's 'hidden secret' is also revealed. In summary, The Shot-Maker's Code is a major revelation of how golf can be played at any level and is a fundamental advancement and simplification of how golf should be learned and taught.
